Referring to the continuing success of US presidential wannabe Donald Trump, Hollywood star Julianne Moore, 55, says voters have become celebrity junkies.
She says in an interview: ‘Historically, that's how things happen again and again. How a leader who is potentially unprepared, or even dangerous - like Hitler - can come to power. So it is to our detriment that we respond to a type of charisma.'
Is Ms Moore - a celebrity herself - subtly referencing Trump's German ancestry?

Movie star Liam Neeson's teasing disclosure that he's dating an ‘incredibly famous' woman recalls his four-year romance with Dame Helen Mirren.
They met on the set of 1981 film Excalibur. He was 28. She was 35. Ms Mirren, now 70, later admitted to ‘having a soft spot for Irish men'. She called Neeson ‘a prize taken home from Ireland, a tourist memento'.
He said: ‘Can you imagine riding horses in shiny suits of armour, having sword fights and stuff, and you're falling in love with Helen Mirren? It doesn't get any better than that!' Although she is ‘incredibly famous', Dame Helen has been happily married to director Taylor Hackford since 1997.

The death of broadcaster Sir Terry Wogan reminded millions of his 1991 interview with the former TV sports reporter David Icke, who surprised the Irishman by claiming to be the son of God.
Now based on the Isle of Wight, Icke has said of the interview, which resulted in him becoming a national figure of fun: ‘The mass ridicule that ensued set me free of fearing what others say and think - it was a gift for which I will always be grateful.'
An Isle of Wight source says: ‘Unlike Alice, of Wonderland fame, Icke has no problem believing six impossible things before breakfast.'
Grant Harrold, a former butler to the Prince of Wales who now runs the Royal School of Butlers, advises: ‘When introduced to someone, never say "pleased to meet you" as the correct greeting is "how do you do?"'
Is he having a dig at Carole Middleton? She reportedly said she was pleased to meet the Queen at Prince William's Sandhurst passing out parade in 2006. Perhaps so, but doesn't ‘how do you do?' sound more absurd than ‘pleased to meet you' when meeting the monarch?
