in the clip below, John Lennon speaks out against
"John & Yoko bashing", telling fans -

"if you think you have some part of me because of
the music . . . then screw you . . . I am not here for
you. I am here for me and her . . . i don't think anybody
should be that interested in every detail of my life . . ."

Lennon lashed out back in 1970s, but one can
imagine his words being spoken by some of today's
mega celebrities

people like Britney Spears, Paris Hilton, Lindsay
Lohan, Tom Cruise etc.

people who have disappointed fans, been closely
scrutinized and widely criticized

was Lennon's anger justified?
do his concerns pertain to today's celebrities?
and if so, what can be done about it?
