"Celebrity" crusades

I believe that certain celebrities are taking exception to telling their kids fairy tales, and letting them watch Disney films of the fairy tales.
At first this seems like a good idea. Their, the celebrities, argument is that the female lead characters have unrealistic ideals. But....that's because through the years the original stories have been softened in order to be more child friendly.
Hans Christian Andersen and the brothers Grimm collected folk tales and made them child friendly, although I believe that the Little Mermaid was Andersen's own story.
If you read the the folk tales that today's fairy tales are based on, you'll find much darker tales.
Cinderella, for instance, has several tales that it was developed from. Some of the tales are quite violent in places. They were usually told around the fire at night, after the evening meal, and before turning in for the night. Normally shared by mainly adult audiences.

If the Hollywood celebrities read the original tales, they might change their minds.
Also, it might be more useful to teach their children the difference between fact and fiction, but maybe people who make a living out of being someone else have lost understanding of the difference between fact and fiction themselves?

Negative sales pitch?

The national lottery are currently running a series of adverts, where celebrities are saying what they would do if they won.
Each idea is crazier than the last. Katy Price, I think it is, would air a TV channel based around her. Piers Morgan would build an amusement park, Lawrence Llewellyn Bowen would give national monuments makeovers, starting with Stonehenge, and Vinnie , forget his surname, ( the ex-footballer,) would create "anger" generating power machines.  Obviously all crazy, and the fevered dream creations of an advertising whizz kid.
But, the campaign is encouraging people to buy lottery tickets in order to make the crazy celebrity creations less likely to happen.
It's a very strange way to advertise something, but seems to be a developing trend.
On reflection, I wonder if it has any basis on the outcome of our last election, where we were promised things beforehand, and they melted into thin air afterwards?
Mind you, the trustworthiness of politicians is the subject for another post, or maybe a whole raft of posts?
