It's a strange world we live in.

People love gossip and with celebrites you can find a complete stranger and talk about one of them because everyone can relate.

Jeff,let it go sweetie,let it go.
I think that people can get obsessed to quickly because they see somethin they want they know they can't have it.........so they go after it as far as possible........i'm not a stalker but if i had to choose who i would love to stalk,it would be Kirsten Dunst other than that,i'm not too obsessed.I think that we all have obbsessed in our own little ways...........

[JeffStacky]

Yes we do rebecca. Well do you like Clueless Rebecca?
If you do that is cool.

Anyways are you scared to e mail me or something?

Apparently in some new scientist article they say one in ten Americans are addicted celebrity worshipers.

They said these people suffer a severe form of CWS - Celebrity Worship syndrome, which can leave them prone to depression, anxiety and psychosis. They also suggest up to a third of people may be suffering some degree of CWS.

The Olsen twins r Marvin nash's life... its all he has. The little hope that he has is if they turn porn stars... he is obseesed with the Olsen twins and of course Naomi Watts.

Stalkers

And some psychologists question whether what has been dubbed celebrity worship syndrome is such a good thing.

They suggest it could be an indication that individuals find it easier to form imaginary relationships with the famous than with normal people - or that such behaviours are a sign of depression or anxiety.

The extreme end of celebrity worship involves obsessional and potentially dangerous stalking where people believe they have to be close to their idols.

But experts say these people make up just a small proportion of celebrity worshippers.

James Houran, a psychologist from Southern Illinois University School of Medicine in Springfield, has helped devise the Celebrity Attitude Scale, which measures people's interest in celebrities.

He said: "Just worshipping a celebrity does not make you dysfunctional.

"But it does put you at risk of being so.

"There is this progression of behaviours, and if you start, we don't know what's going to stop you."

Shared interest

Dr James Maltby, lecturer in psychology at the University of Leicester, has studied links between attitudes to celebrities and personality types.

He told BBC News Online that data from 3,000 people showed only around 1% demonstrated obsessional tendencies.

Ten per cent, who tended to be neurotic, tense, emotional and moody, displayed intense interest in celebrities.

Around 14% said they would make a special effort to read about their favourite celebrity and to socialise with people who shared their interest.

But he said the other 75% of the population do not take any interest in celebrities' lives.

"Generally, the vast majority of people will identify a favourite celebrity, but don't say they read about them or think about them all the time."

He added: "Like most things, its fine as long as it doesn't take over your life."

well i think it takes over alot of peoples life,there are a few people in here that are like that...............

I know a guy who believes that making fun of stalkers is like making fun of people with tourette's syndrome.

Because...




They cant help it. Its almost a disease. However as with Tourette's syndrome sufferers......sometimes you just cant help but laugh.

[JeffStacky]

Stalker's are not good ...it is a disease

From Jeff

[tedward]
