Totally agree!

And things have changed a hell of a lot - look at the early stars such as George Best, or Jacqueline du Pre, as well as Michael Jackson, and compare how they were treated with how the likes of Wayne Rooney, Aled Jones or Sproglet's beloved Dominic Howard today.

The stars of the past didn't have a team of people to deal with the world on their behalf, no advice about looking after their money, practical things like dealing with washing clothes, or a chance to grow up, so to be the first stars when the media was just beginning was hellish. No boundaries, no lawsuits, just constant pressure to be perfect and then your life picked apart when you turned out to be just human.

Then of course add in the pushy parents, and before you know it, one horribly confused human being who doesn't know where to turn.
