that still happens on this side of the pond as well, but that's more for local media employees. no one one freaks out about the weatherman getting groceries. there's still a distinction between a media personality and a celebrity. just because you're on tv doesn't mean you're a star (despite what the vast majority of 'idol' and 'reality' contestants want to believe).
