Movie Star = A Public Life

Yesterday it was reported that movie star Julia Roberts pointed her finger and scolded the photographers trying to get her photo by her kids' school. So, let's get this straight, it's okay to be photographed and interviewed about the latest movie you're trying to sell to the public, but only on your terms. Unfortunately, when you become a movie star you sign on to a life in the public eye. When you leave your home you are subject to public scrutiny. It's the price one pays when becoming a movie star. You would think that Julia Roberts would know that. If Julia Robert does not want her kids in the public eye, she should either retire from making movies until they've graduated from high school, or enroll them in private school and/or homeschool them. Please retire from making movies if you don't like photographers following your every move. Oh, and perhaps you could convince your friend George Clooney to retire from movies as well since he hates having photographers following him around. Just remember that if you choose to star in movies that millions of people will pay to view, then you subject yourself to their bottomless curiosity. Don't be shocked and angered when followed by photographers.
