Well Prince, the reason celebrities are good for these topics is they're the only population whom everyone either knows or can look up. If I say "yeah, this older woman I know is so hot and I'd totally bone her" then exactly zero people in the whole of the TFP could figure out who I'm talking about. This way it narrows it down to a commonly-shared group of long-distance "acquaintances" (acquainted in the sense that we know or can know who they are).
