you are not wrong hora, im sure the same applies to BigBrother, X Factor or other similar "you like to think you are involved" tv broadcasting.
it appeals to some, this creates a buzz, the media stir it up.
while i will not find myself watching the wannabe popstars i dont find i have to insult the concept (not even music imo) or viewers.
of course a big part of football support stems from the same concept, i used to have a kick about with my mates and i can appreciate the game played at the top end, my sister however probably sang into a hairbrush in the mirror
(if you are reading, sis, sorry to imply you watch that sort of shite)
(you dont, do you?)
