Britney-Becomes massively fat, 5 children, sheltered from public eye, then spearheads weight-loss thing by the time she reaches 40 in the 2020s a la Kirstie Alley and WeightWatchers, appealing to aging Gen Yers.

Kanye West-People lose interest in his ego, he becomes a nut busy trying to blame the US gov for AIDS in Africa or something such. Marries a woman 20 years older than him.
Beyonce Knowles-Remains fairly successful celebrity through end of 2000s.
Simon Cowell and the American Idol People-American Idol cancelled by 2010/2011 or so, participate in series of bestselling exposes on American Idol and go on Oprah Winfrey.
Mariah Carey-Marries random guy, ages fairly well.
Will Ferrell-Ages badly, develops strange disease he raises money for.
Gwyneth Paltrow-Divorces Coldplay frontman and takes up with the head of a major Hollywood studio, people having realized her lack of talent. Goes to weird mystical retreats.

I think arcane trash like Nicole Richie, Nick Lachey, Jessica Simpson will all get either horribly anorexic or horribly fat and end up hosting infomercials and beauty pageants.

Upcoming Time magazine has interview with Macauleey Culkin saying he's questioning what acting has in store for him...I heard he's in an upcomingmovie 'Junior'  but he talks about being outof work...There are THOUSANDS who don't even come close to a movie, so he could N0T be in the lead for nonworking actors..oh of course, he did the movie SAVED maybe not enough to make money off of but...

Hope he takes a hint from the late JACK WILD who thought cigarettes help do him in...
Mac was said to be smoking nonstop and just seconds before walking in to the church altar for his last wedding...WORK ON THAT!!!!

Ashley Tisdale will be typecasted for playing a teenager on "The Suite Life", which would be canned by 2007/early 2008 and appear on bad sitcoms that only last a few episodes on Fox, NBC, CBS, and ABC.


As for her music career, her voice improve...but her fans would grow out of her and still think of her as a  bubblegum pop singer.

More likely bad direct to DVD movies or cheesy tv shows like Pam Anderson.


...or get chubby and embarass her teenage son like Tiffany  ::)  :P

Zac Efron might end up like Johnny Depp since he reminds me of those actors that appeal to both young girls and older women that allow their daughters to date him...


About the last post, I think I meant Ashlee Simpson since Ashley Tisdale could still act, even when nolonger taken seriously by the time she's considered "too old" for Disney Channel.

Honestly I couldn't care, though most celebrities have overstayed their 15 minutes of fame . Britney Spears is already past her prime (at only 20something)...that is, her prime as a performer. I think she'll take Kirsty Alley's place as the face of Jenny Craig. Though I hope her husband screws her of her fortune and then ditches her.  :D

Jessica Simpson, Paris Hilton, Lindsay Lohan...none of them are the least bit 'respected' (maybe Jessica is a little) and they will fade into obscurity.

As for groups like the 'Pussy-Cat Dolls' - give 'em maybe another year. No, in fact I think they are nothing but a one-hit wonder. George Bush used to be scary (not him as such, but because he could very well could have caused Armageddon), but now he's just funny.

That's my 2cents worth.

I agree with that, I think Lindsay Lohan will leave her career in the early 2010s maybe or fade into obscurity through them, people will get sick of Paris Hilton and she'll repeatedly end up in rehab over the next few years (then she'll get overexposed and people won't care anymore), and Jessica Simpson will just age out of stardom. I think we ALL agree Britney will end up as the new face of Jenny Craig.... ;D....I mean, God, when was the last time anybody even cared about her music???

I think some musical artists like Liz Phair, Tori Amos, Pavement, Faith No More, Michael Stipe will have big comebacks c. 2012-2019. Some of these people have been releasing CDs, they just haven't been successful.

Ten years later, and all of these are correct (besides Tom Cruise being gay), wow. It's really interesting to check these old threads sometimes.

Jennifer Aniston definitely hasn't faded into obscurity yet. Her body has aged excellently and she's continued to earn significant roles in heavily promoted movies. You also still hear plenty about her through celebrity news.

In addition, I don't think George W Bush is the butt of jokes anymore, certainly not the way he already was when Matt the Rat76 made his predictions. If anything, George W. Bush is sadly starting to look like an almost respectable figure when you compare him to Donald Trump.

As much as I said that Donald Trump is an irrespective businessman and politician, he should'be think of what he has done to this country for his entire life. Especially when he thinks everyone should believe him and not think for themselves.

Huh, well, I guess I'm wrong then. I haven't heard about Jennifer Aniston in a while, so I guess I was going on personal experience, same with the George W. Bush thing. My dad liked (so I usually heard good things about him) George W. Bush back then, and anytime he is mentioned now, the people I talk to usually make fun of him.

Britney Spears will have an album out in 2008 called Circus, and an album in 2011 called Femme Fatale.  ;D  They will be hits!
