Use of Celebrities in Voice Over- a worthy debate

What I enjoy about the VOX Daily blog is, Stephanie at Voices.Com certainly stirs up thought-provoking topics. Do you think "name" celebs are stealing our v-o work away?  I've been following this thread

Here is my view on the subject

Hollywood believes there's a big draw to cast recognizable stars into lead voice roles for feature animation films. This is not a new trend, and it does create big box office in some cases.

To a lesser degree, there are some known actors we'll mostly see, not hear stars doing commercials... most are actors whose film careers are no longer as prolific as they once were. And yes there are some stars who perform broadcast narration.

Despite this reality, I believe there will always be room for everyone who works hard at their voice business and is good at the craft.
