The problem with celebrities like kirstie alley is that they think people like them for their ideas and way of life.
When younger, kirstie was a babe, nice bod, looks and lusted after by some no doubt. She had nothing to do with that - she was born with that genetic entity if you will.
Then she was fortunate to be part of the cast of a hit tv show spouting script written by someone else, then in a hit movie directed by someone else who told her what to do and say.
So an opinion leader in acting means a lot of folks think she is a good actor - which is open for debate. It does not mean people at large think she is living life properly or has good ideas.
Too bad she has the wrong impression of herself - she will take a beating for her views as now she is just another overweight overbearing bitch.
The "think" that usually goes with this in the Scio world is "I got my success because of Scio... and therefore now I am an opinion leader and can go on to show everyone that the root of my success is Scio, and they also want success, and therefore will reach for the tek". Plus, if you've been named an OL, you will have the pressure to live up to that "responsibility". The powers that be will blow smoke up your a$$ about how wonderful you are, but also how you never would have got there without the tek. So, yeah... you think you are awesome because they tell you, but you'd also be a DB without Hubster; and so Scilon celebs are born. Voila!
