"People want clowns for celebrities", this is what Vanna Bonta thinks.
The novelist/actress thinks today's celebrity standard is not about being a shining star. According to Bonta, the public trend of bashing people who are famous is a way of coping with "World news headlines that read like the planet is an insane asylum." Hmmm ... Logic!
Vanna Bonta feels offended when she's called a celebrity! The medal-winning writer says her fans love her and buy her books because they make a "real" connection.
Bonta blogged on her MySpace: "The letters from my readers sharing how I've moved them, inspired ideas, tears or laughter is the real pay."
Okay, so send in the clowns, er... don't bother, they're here ... but in times of whine and rehab it seems medals are still being awarded to poets and storytellers. A literary gold medal issued by a branch of the Italian government is one of the numerous silver and gold awards on Vanna Bonta's wall.
Kudos to ya Vanna!

oh yeah KUDOS & applause
this is so the truth. Love love love
I love you Vanna Bonta
OMG. How do you get into her blog??? It's all private!!? Anyways she's no bettah than the rest of them.
I think this is maybe her point, no? We are all people! But some are caring about others. I applaud also this statement because the people who posing as super stars are clowns but maybe we should not laugh because it does not fix the problems so sick.
ANYONE in enough lights and smoke and mirrors and they look like a wizard. The public taken for a ride is one of the funniest hoaxes and Paris Hilton is the Queen of Hoax. and ho :P
O so here's a thought just like what would happen if the billion$ weren't spent on war crime crap -- what would happen if movies and music were real?
