I think that people conjure up some lovely image of what a person is.
When they hear something negative…they have a hard time seeing past it. I too cannot watch Tom Cruise. He is a freak. I refuse to support him by watching his movies and in turn supporting his freak church.
I have certain beliefs that I just cannot compromise. Anyone who spreads such lies as the church of scientology should not be supported.
I think that celebrities would be really smart if they kept their beliefs to themselves instead of shouting from the roof tops! Oprah shot herself in the foot when she started with the whole new age thing. Her viewing audience was impacted significantly by losing her Christian viewers.
In a nutshell…..celebrities DO make mistakes. I can overlook mistakes but CANNOT overlook others such as religious beliefs that are LIES. The spread of the LIES is what troubles me.

I wouldnt stop watching someones movies for things like what Wesley or Tom did.
If they did something completley terrible like murdered or raped someone then I might.

I’m not sure. If I like someone, I am watching their movies regardless. What they do in their personal life shouldn’t interfere with their movies. If you like them as actors, why not watch their movies?
Everyone makes mistakes.

“Boycotting” a celebrity’s movie, CD, etc. is a way of showing one’s disapproval of their lifestyle.
On the flip side of your question… Why do some people WANT to patronize a celebrity when they “screw up?”
