42、ars today enjoy what once only belonged to the royalty. Wherever they go, people turn out in their thousands to greet them. The crowds go wild trying to catch a brief glimpse of their smiling, colorfully dressed idols. The stars are transported in their chauffeur driven Rolls Royces, private helicop

43、ters or executive airplanes. They are surrounded by a permanent entourage (随从) of managers, press agents and bodyguards. Photographs of them appear regularly in the press and all their comings and goings are reported, for, like royalty, pop stars are news. If they enjoy many of the privileges of roy

44、alty, they certainly share many of the inconveniences as well. It is dangerous for them to make unscheduled appearances in public.
