    Isn’t funny how celebrities act sometimes? It’s like they don’t understand that they are in public, or obviously they don’t care at all. I remember this one time I was walking down Times Square in New York City and I saw Christina Aguilera walking by wearing a really weird outfit for a high street. It struck me as very odd. And that’s just one example of the craziness.
