Is it because these people are too tightly controlled by their agents to ask something controversial?

Or is it that they are only distantly involved in the whole process, despite the claims of Yahoo, and 'their people' can only manage the blandest of questions?

Danny Glover, don't ask how we can help starving african children, ask 'should we increase access to birth control and attack those who prevent its use in poverty-stricken parts of africa'

Or

'To protect the children of Darfur, should the democratic West engage the Janjaweed and Sudanese government with air power, or just pour aid into the country despite some of it falling into the wrong hands'

Let's have provocative questions on here people!

Celebrities don't want to upset anybody anymore. They all saw what happened to The Dixie Chicks when they said they were ashamed that Bush is from Texas and the Tom Cruise's anti psychiatry mess. Stay rich, stay famous and fly under the radar.

Great point. I think its because they're so removed from the real world that they actually think the world could be some sort of Eldorado, where if we all just came together, no child would ever die or go hungry.

Seems to me this is a statement instead of a question, but I think many people of celebrity status feel the need to give back to their communities, and getting others involved. Many of them come from rather humble beginnings themselves.
What kind of questions would you prefer?

Wasn't Danny Glover controversial enough when he spoke here?
