Do you think a commercial actor can improve the world?

Question

What do you expect from an actor?

What do you hate about actors?

What are his limitations?

If hez well-known

Answer 1

i guess there are some things that they really can make a difference in, like various charities. how many charities do you think Oprah has helped immensley simply by mentioning them on her show? i know she's not really an actor, but she was the first one that popped into my head.

but most of them have motives for whatever cause they're promoting at the time (i.e. they're getting something out of it other than just the simple joy of helping out for a good cause) so mostly i wish they'd just shut up and act.

i believe some of their limitations are how well known they are

and how good their reputation is. if the person is a jerk, a druggie, been involved in something else illegal, etc. then no one will take it seriously. it would all be a big joke if someone like Britney Spears decided to support some charity or support a certain candidate or whatever else.

Answer 2

he knows well about his family and friends.

and they know him well.  a two way traffic is well & good.

common men-actor relationship is one way and hence whats the use.

Answer 3

Yeah, he or she probably could depending on the movies they made. Then there's Angelina Jolie she does alot of stuff to make the world a better place even though her movies might not do too much. I don't know I haven't seen them. I guess Lara Croft shows women being the heroes.

Even in last week's Parade magazine that comes in the newspaper, Vince Vaughn was talking about some charity stuff he does. Then you have Tom Cruise with Scientology, but that's questionable.
