This atitude a modern day public entitlement encouraged by tabloids and selfish fans. Its unhealthy for the public and the entertainers. The fact that this attitude is what the public defaults to is the primary reason the "truly wholesome professionals" are gone from entertainment and we've been left with folks like Trump. You've created an environment that is actively hostile to the average person maintaining their sanity.

Similarly, the obsession that people have with taking pictures and knowing everything about an entertainer and invading their lives is why there is such a ridiculous level of fortune associated with these roles. No one in their right mind would do it otherwise.

This attitude drives the very principal it purports.

I don't know, probably culture differences.

They're lying about him supporting the orange https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/adam-sandler-trump/

But fame does cost privacy and any American could see that coming, if ordinary people can't be private without being called crazy, why should famous people?

Maybe watch a conference of reporters asking Obama about the Snowden leaks and privacy-related questions https://youtube.com/watch?v=tysIV6t54L4

Don't play privacy advocate if you don't mean it for literally everyone
