Each time I go to the supermarket and stand in line to check out I see dozens of magazines or tabloids about celebrities. My question to anybody that buys these magazines or cares what's inside is, why do you care?
I can understand going to a film since you might be a fan in the star. I personally try to see any movie that Tom Hanks is in because he makes outstanding films. I can understand why an individual may wish to visit a concert to find out their favourite musician. There are lots of examples where a fan might be considering a celebrity. That is where it ought to stop even though. Why do individuals care if Nick and Jessica are breaking up? Why do folks care what Ben Affleck is doing? If it wasn't for Matt Damon and "Good Will Hunting" he would be functioning a building website like he was within the movie, simply because he hasn't created a good movie given that.
If my next door neighbor is getting trouble with his spouse it isn't found all over the magazines and tabloids. Why are "celebrities" personal lives any different? They are not any more important than the rest of us, or are they? It is our hard earned funds that tends to make these folks well-known in the very first spot. There are movie stars producing $20 million a film since we purchase the tickets. You will find drug dealers/gang bangers, making a fortune as rap stars since we acquire their CD's and tickets to find out them in concert.
Probably the most unfortunate part of this fascination with celebrities is that much more frequently than not, they may be negative influences on younger individuals and negative examples to society normally. It really is extremely discouraging when you see celebrities seldom being found guilty of crimes since they have high-priced attorneys that get them off. This can be to not say they're all guilty but I believe there have already been instances when a guilty man was set free. Celebrities act as if they are immune towards the same laws that apply towards the rest of us.
It appears as time passes that people's priorities become more and more distorted. As opposed to focusing our time and power on individuals who need it, regardless of whether they are sick, homeless, undereducated, or what have you, folks invest money and time following the people who need no assist from anybody simply because they're able to purchase all the help they require. Somehow I didn't feel poor for Jennifer Anniston and Brad Pitt when they broke up. Each are extremely well-off financially, both are very attractive, they had numerous properties collectively with servants to handle all their needs. Their greatest concern was promoting off their principal home for $20 million. This really is just not reality, but then once again, perhaps that is the cause people are caught up in their lives. At the very least the magazines and tabloids that discuss these very wealthy individuals do serve 1 goal, they help to maintain the homeless people warm on these artic winter nights.
