Yes, and they have the same right as any other citizen to postpone their service to another date.

Yes, but they are almost always excused because neither the prosecutor or the defense is likely to want them on the jury. The theory is that the other jurors will unconsciously go along with the famous person because they're famous.

everybody is ordered to jury duty, but of course celebrities live by a different set of rules than the rest of us...

They are also citizens of the U.S.A. and they must fulfill their duty. If they aren't, they are just lazy to think they don't have to just because they are famous.
I know that Korean celebrities (male) must go into the military like the rest of the male citizens so I'm assuming the U.S.A. also enforces their laws on celebrities... I mean, why not?

If they are registered to vote they are, but I doubt many of them vote, they would just rather complain about who is in office. However, if they were called to jury duty, they would likely be dismissed, as they would be a distraction

Anybody can vote as long as they are a U. S. citizen. Which includes celebrities.

Most likely yes because it is random, but I think they get out of it because of movies and not being in the country, and probably lying.

Yeh, I would guess so. But seeming that celebrities can get out of jail time they can probably get out of this.

Maybe for 3 days, but then they get out of it.
