    Honestly, while these growing pains are unfair, I just have no sympathy for rich actors in this. I’d love to get rid of the ridiculous overpaid class of celebrities and operate with artificial stars. I do not enjoy celebrity culture or the elevation of voices and opinions purely on the basis of connections and/or acting talent.

      Where’s the line for you? Stephen Fry is far from your typical “spoiled rich celebrity actor”. He’s relatively famous, very successful, but like, what dollar threshold destroys your sympathy for people having their careers undermined?
