    They are definitely overpaid!I know entertainment plays a huge part in our lives,but if it wasn't for the medical industry or the army,then we might not have any lives to care about.

    I think that's atrocious! How can they be paid that much whilst there are people in the world starving! And what are they going to do with ALL that money anyways?
