Quote (Cubist @ Dec. 22 2011,20:59)
If we assume that "tied" is a typo for "tired", this sentence could be interpreted as a statement of dissatisfaction at the excessive levels of publicity (= "puffing") which is bestowed upon overexposed (= "done to death") celebrities (= "celebs"). Who can say if that is indeed the concept which 'News' was intending to convey...

Good translation. I guess I'm just not familiar with the term puffing in that context. Maybe it's a Canadian thing.
