I think some people are extroverted enough, and arrogant enough to love this sort of fame. I don't mean this comment to be negative, but I'm not sure how else to describe the trait. Have you ever walked into a room and thought "These hundred or so people should really be listening to me." Maybe not verbatim, but I suspect Will Smith has had that thought in one form or another.

Since HN is titled so heavily towards introverted logical (logical as opposed to emotional) thinkers, it's no surprise that the perspective of a celebrity would be hard for the community to grasp.
