Are you really comparing what Gervais wrote here to Britney Spears? You should care about what Gervais says or writes because he's an intelligent individual who knows what he's talking about.

I only care about what a celebrity has to say and think, when they happen to be an area of their expertise. Why should I care what Gervais has to say about antyhing?
And yes I did. In both cases they are not experts in what they talk about, and only get interviewed because they are celebrities.
As far as "knowing what he's talking about" I certainly hope he knows what he doesn't believe in something. It is sad if someone doesn't, if they just do it for giggles. Beyond that though, there is nothing Gervais says that hasn't been said dozens of times before, without the patronizing throwing of a bone that he believes in faith.
Again, what I should care about, if you insist on arguing moral imperatives of should, is should listen to experts in areas, not just someone who is a celebrity who can put together a few sentences and communicate coherently. Anyhow, if you want someone to listen to, who is on the celebrity level in general, I would give you Penn of Penn and Teller. Feel free to listen to him and become a believer in smaller government, and Libertarian thought.

What I meant by "who knows what he's talking about" is that he doesn't speak from his ass like you see many other celebs do. No one is forcing you to read this though, but many people like doing so and therefore not sure what your point is exactly. He's not an expert, but he brings forth an interesting point of view worthy of discussion and as you can see, many read it and are at the time of writing discussing what he wrote.
Why should you care what any person in general has to say about anything? That's a good question to ask yourself

As time has gone on with my life, I have had to give increasing thought to who I would listen to about what. I have found, increasingly, that people have a very limited range of information, and it is best to not just listen to, or consider the opinions of anyone about anything. If I were to just listen to anyone, particularly over the Internet, it would of been in order for me to kill myself to lower someone elses taxes. So, my filtering has been increasing a lot in regards to a lot of things.
