I am saying in general,you have to be more talented/intellectual to suceeded as an actor given the sheer amount of talent you have.

People act like you just get parts for looking like the role.

No you don't.... Charlie Sheen's only famous because of his father, Paris hilton too, you just need money, or have someone in your family with talent, but YOU don't need any at all to become famous.

How do you know he did not say that for publicity?

It is the kind of thing hard to get mad at because many people think they could prevent a tragedy if they were there... It was controversial enough to get him the papers and get him press.

Yeah but I agree with LazerTurtle that celebrities are very intelligent. They make cold calculated moves and just appear to say something offensive/insensitive.

I would not say people are stupid just that the celebrities are very smart and good at conning people into following them and what they do.

I am sorry but no, Charlie Sheen has played in some big movies over the years.. To even compare him to Paris Hilton is ridiculous.

Charlie Sheen was in 'Major League'. That alone makes him superior to what Paris Hilton could ever be.

Being born from his father Martin was the first step..., he didn't get to were he's at without his father. I wasn't really comparing him to Paris Hilton I was simply giving examples of people who didn't get to where they're at by themselves.

Having an actor for a father may have helped open some doors for him sure, but he didn't get where he's at just by being Ramon Estevez's son. Having a well known close relative doesn't assure you success in that business, you gotta get there on your own work. Cases in point: Christian Brando and Frank Stallone.

I'm the same way, I just see them as regular people who are popular. I mean, I do have interest in who they are but I don't sit in front of TMZ or Hollywood Access to see what they're doing. Especially follow them on twitter? Geeze.

Lol, not true... Millions of people try their hardest to get in doors, you have to be extremely talented/ good looking or fit a role to get in doors.

George W Bush graduated from Yale and Harvard Business...... I am sorry but he is not stupid imo. I may disagree with his politics though.

I have watched alot of Inside Studio and these actors all seem really smart.
