Message: [QUOTE="tep624, post: 36063, member: 430"] I agree, unfortunately most aren't bright enough not to talk about ANYTHING polarizing. When your business and livelihood depend on the public's opinion of you, it's best to keep a low profile and avoid controversy. That being said, some in the spotlight are in the spotlight because of controversy. There's a fine line. Those with legit talents shouldn't need to be controversial figures because their talent speaks for itself. Those that aren't that talented have to rely on whatever type of publicity they can get. If they don't give a stuff that their record sales or movie ticket sales are going to decline because of the things they say, then more power to them to say whatever they want. Not the best business decision if you ask me but to each their own. [/QUOTE]
