I have very complicated and contradictory feelings about this. I am aware that it makes no sense but whatever.

I don't think they *have* to speak out and/or be activists, but if they choose to, I do not want to actively to shame them.

On the other hand, it does sting a little when your favorite artist is silent on a particular issue or says something incredibly ignorant or off putting. I recognize that it is unfair for me to judge but it is what it is.

Perhaps the solution is to stop valuing celebrities so much. But then how would I waste my valuable free time? Reading and educating myself? Perish the thought.

It's not even about them speaking out. Sometimes actions speak louder than words. And in the case of D&G, simply *not* wearing them doesn't seem like some impossible challenge.

My comments were more in regards to the ONTD note. Not D&G specifically.

"What should a star be now? Entertainer, Activist, Teacher, all of the above. Do you believe stars can grow. How many chances are to many? Is an apology ever enough? Does it just depend on the person or brand? Is anyone or anything not complicit? Should you only trust what you produce yourself? Have we gone to far in Idol worship? Can we ever go back?"

The thing is,if we really did take them less seriously, stopped giving a damn what they wore or ever how they think, none pf this would be an issue. Red carpets and award shows would go back to being industry events we'd all ignore and what the celebs wore would only be of interest to each other. There is actually zero reason to give a shit about someone's choice of dressmaker or tailor.

Just to add: I think you're right.
