From Jenny McCarthy to Suzanne Somers, we are constantly inundated with celebrities who play doctor by doling out medical advice. Most do this because they or a loved one are personally afflicted with a disease. The USA Today did a nice piece questioning whether they are crossing the line. I believe that having debate about these issues is a good thing but it can go overboard (i.e. autism and vaccines). I just wish some celebrities could come out about weird and exciting medical problems. I know we would all love to read about David Duchovney and Tiger Woods and the issue of sexual addiction. Heck, they could even start a Sex Addiction Charity (SAC) that we could all donate to. Their pitch line could be "Help Us Get Out of the SAC".
