RACHEL WEISZ - WEISZ SLAMS 'VULGAR' CELEBRITY CULTURE

Oscar winner RACHEL WEISZ has slammed talentless celebrities who pursue fame - branding them "vulgar". The British actress insists she has earned her place in the limelight because of her profession and feels contempt for those who are only famous for stripping for photographers or attending glitzy parties. And Weisz, who famously rejected an offer to pose naked for Playboy magazine in 2005, vows to continue to snub the celebrity circuit. She says, "I am an actress. I think celebrity is a vulgar thing. It's so easy to be famous, turn up in a certain frock, present a show, take your top off. "If you go to those parties and wear those dresses you become a celebrity, which has nothing to do with acting. I don't go to those parties. I can't stand them."
