Is red wine the "new" cigarettes?

[Monster2]

It seems like you see every "cool" actor and actress these days drinking it.
I'm not a fan of dry wine or cigarettes, and I'm not sure which one is worse for you.
And I KNOW I don't like media conglomerates pushing either one.
any thoughts?

I never thought of any actor or actress as 'cool' to start with, so it doesn't really make a difference to me. I think wine might be slightly healthier (in moderation), but if I had to choose, I'd prefer somebody who smokes over somebody who drinks. I'd prefer if they did neither, though.

I think that drinking red wine is better for you than smoking any day, as long as its in moderation. It is said to actually have health benefits when not abused.
