 - Celebrities - 

Celebrities are people that are famous and are in media spotlight, usually they are stars/famous due to film/music/art/etc. Just to differentiate, Mr. Abe is famous, he's the prime minister of Japan, but he's not a celebrity. But in the case of people who run the world/countries, I understand the public being interested in the things they do and the deals they make and with which people they make said deals.

But, why are we so infatuated with the personal lives of celebrities?

Don't you feel like the world is too interested in the things that aren't important in celebrities lives?

Why do you think people care so much about who celebrities date, meet, or what they write on the internet?

Let's talk about that.

 - ALIENS AND SPACETRAVEL - 

Do you believe that aliens exist? I am sceptical about the existence of aliens, I mean, we haven't seen any (that I know of), and even if they do, why would they even visit us anyway?

Do you think they've already visited Earth in the past?

If they do exist, do you think we will ever meet or communicate with them?

Also, our technology is improving every day, in 10-20 years, do you think we'll be able to travel into space commercially? By this I mean do you think we'll be able to book a holiday to the I.S.S. (International Space Station) or even the moon in the future, rather than to Hawaii?

Also! Why do people believe they've seen aliens in the sky, and why do they think the governments cover-up the existence of aliens?

Are there extra-terrestrial secrets in Area 51?

Would it be so bad if the public knew about aliens?

Let's talk about that.
