Every time I go to the supermarket and stand in line to check out I see dozens of magazines or tabloids about celebrities. My query to anybody that buys these magazines or cares what is inside is, why do you care?
I can understand going to a film simply because you might be a fan from the star. I personally try to see any film that Tom Hanks is in simply because he makes excellent films. I can understand why someone might wish to go to a concert to determine their preferred musician. There are many examples where a fan could be considering a celebrity. Which is where it ought to stop though. Why do people care if Nick and Jessica are breaking up? Why do folks care what Ben Affleck is carrying out? If it wasn't for Matt Damon and "Good Will Hunting" he will be working a construction web site like he was inside the movie, because he hasn't produced a great movie given that.
If my subsequent door neighbor is possessing trouble with his spouse it's not found all over the magazines and tabloids. Why are "celebrities" individual lives any different? They are not any a lot more essential than the rest of us, or are they? It is our difficult earned funds that tends to make these individuals renowned in the first location. You will find film stars producing $20 million a movie since we purchase the tickets. You'll find drug dealers/gang bangers, producing a fortune as rap stars since we acquire their CD's and tickets to determine them in concert.
Probably the most unfortunate a part of this fascination with celebrities is the fact that much more frequently than not, they're poor influences on younger individuals and negative examples to society normally. It really is extremely discouraging whenever you see celebrities rarely getting identified guilty of crimes because they have high-priced attorneys that get them off. This really is to not say they are all guilty but I think there have already been cases when a guilty man was set totally free. Celebrities act as if they may be immune towards the same laws that apply for the rest of us.
It seems as time passes that people's priorities grow to be more and more distorted. Instead of focusing our time and power on people who require it, whether they may be sick, homeless, undereducated, or what have you, folks spend money and time following the people that require no aid from anyone because they are able to buy all of the help they need. Somehow I did not feel poor for Jennifer Anniston and Brad Pitt after they broke up. Both are very well-off financially, both are extremely appealing, they had several houses together with servants to manage all their needs. Their biggest concern was promoting off their primary house for $20 million. This can be just not reality, but then again, maybe which is the reason people are caught up in their lives. A minimum of the magazines and tabloids that discuss these really wealthy people do serve one purpose, they assist to keep the homeless individuals warm on these artic winter nights.
