It makes sense because they have the financial means and a huge world wide network of friends and acquaintances from which they can learn about the latest trends.

But it's not just about finding the hottest Sushi bar or the current, "in," shoe designer, or driving the latest cult type vehicle, it's also about pain.

That's right, celebrities have medical problems too, but unlike most of us who are tied to an HMO, if indeed you're lucky enough to even have health insurance, celebrities seek out the more offbeat medical cures.
