Very good point, excase33. As well, I did a search for Mateus Carrieri on imdb.com and you are indeed correct - he has been a prolific actor on Brazilian television for 30 years. Did you ever hear anything back from Zeromonie or any of the other mods? It would seem to fall on the side of ignorance if "celebrity" status on JUB is determined solely upon whether the mods have heard of the person or not. I for one have never heard of him before this thread, but clearly Mateus Carrieri is a celebrity in Brazil, and not recognizing that in regards to JUB forums seems to go against the whole notion of an equal worldwide community spirit that JUB has tried to nuture.Zeremonie, my argument is that Mateus and Kaike Carrieri are celebrities and this thread belongs back in the Celebrities Forum. It's just that they are not celebrities in the USA where you live. But this is the World Wide Web and many of the Jubbers here would know them as well as you know Tom Cruise and the others you mention. The father has been an actor in films and on TV for 30 years, and the son has graced virtually every publication in South America as a model. Mateus and Kaike Carrieri are definately A List personalities in their corner of the world.
Yes, the pics are erotic, but certainly not lewd (i.e. not pornographic) and wouldn't be out of place on their original forum.
I only mention this because, as I say, this is the World Wide Web, and JUB should acknowlege that there are members here who live outside North America.
And if Zeromonie was implying that only worldwide celebrities, like Tom Cruise, can be referred to under the Celebrity thread, then that's all fine and dandy. However, I hardly think the names Heath Ledger and James Blunt carry that same cachet and can be considered even moderately well-known outside of North America and the UK. In fact, I bet in Brazil, more people have heard of Mateus Carrieri than they have of Ledger and Blunt combined
