I disagree. I know loads of straight men and women whose lives revolve around the goings-on in the Big Brother house, the personal lives of footballer's wives and who is in the latest issue of Heat magazine.
I suspect it's because their own lives are so dull that they feel the need to obsess over people who are considered to be celebrities for some reason.

"Camp" culture has been absorbed wholesale into popular culture these days though, I believe they call it "Bling" now but it's the same thing.
Also I think the attraction is like this: "I am a talentless waste of oxygen, the 'Celebrities' are talentless morons. If I behave exactly the same way as them, then 'one day'(TM) I too can be a rich talentless moron."
