That's true of celebs in general, isn't it?
Interviewers are absolutely desperate not to upset them, and if they do, the celebs (or their agents) just threaten to up sticks and refuse to grant any more interviews. Not many people seem to have a problem with this - the complete opposite to the way that politicians are treated - they're expected to just take any s**t thrown at them, and viewed with the utmost contempt if they draw the line at any question.
Charlie Brooker does a really good News Wipe about this but I'm not sure where it is.
