At least other celebrities are professional actors/actresses, athletes, or what have you.

Maybe I'm looking at this all wrong but how do you guys willingly pay out part of your earnings every day to GIVE this family money for performing a role that has all but vanished in the last couple hundred years?

Right on. I never understood it either. Heiresses and reality celebrities are looked at as villains and the royal family is celebrated and adored, even though they are both famous for doing nothing. I'm glad my country doesn't have a royal family.

Technically, we belong to them too, but apparently about 70% of us could not care less that we do.

weren't the Kennedys some sort of Royal Family?

I'm actually rather upset with the Queen right now, as I was looking forwards to some Australian comedy coverage of the wedding, but she has disallowed the troupe to air their special.

Cunt.

That was all I wanted out of this.

yes they were the closest thing to a Royal Family stateside but they were much more active than UK's Royal Family imo.
