I recently joined Myspace for a bit of fun. I of course realise that adding celebrities to your friends list in no way implies that they are actually going to become a 'real' friend, and I have no intention of this. I feel I'm a pretty well adjusted married twenty something with a young daughter and not some sort of obsessed stalker. If you are going to be a celebrity on a public domain, where the whole point is to network, then you have to play ball too. Why is it then that say, Alan Hansen the ex footballer, can link me as a friend, yet Rachel Stevens the British pop star (who has hundreds of friends, many of whom are just myspace fans), feels that she can just openly reject me. Don't get me wrong, I'll get over it, but why snub a potential fan for no apparent reason. The only basis upon which I linked with her in the first place is because my young daughter is a fan. How do I explain to her that her heroine can't be bothered. It just comes across as arrogant and dismissive.
