I don't have any weird feelings about celebs, but I just don't care about them and don't understand why, even if it's a celeb who is really good looking and seems like a nice person based on what I've seen of them, I would ever want to meet them. Especially like, stand in line (and pay money!) to get an autograph or shake their hand. Why??? So, I am baffled by most of my fellow fans.

I don't know if it's my indifference to celebs or just general not-paying-attentionitis, but I have lived in LA for 35 years now and I think I've seen maybe five celebs. (Part of it is definitely that I rarely go to places rich people go.)

Anyway! Does it bother you to read RPF even when it's an AU and not about them being actors or musicians? Like, if someone gave you the story and didn't tell you first that it was RPF and you thought it was original characters and enjoyed it, it would become weird to you to find out that the names were the same as celebs? I don't like RPF about celebs as celebs, because I have issues re: rich people, and also bafflement because I don't understand the appeal of the whole "lifestyles of the rich and famous" thing, but I've read a lot of good RPF AUs.
