> There are [6](http://www.census.gov/ipc/www/popclockworld.html) billion people on Earth. So IF dating a celebrity has a frequency of one in a billion, it would happen 6 times, just because of the sheer size of the human population. Or using your prediction of .01% that still gives us 60,000,000 people hooking up with celebrities.
