Most heroes are seen as a role model to the surrounding citizens. They perform courageous acts to help the people around them. Even though there are many heroes, there are also many tragic heroes. A tragic hero has a flaw that negatively affects themselves or the people around them. They eventually have a reversal and right their wrongs before experiencing a literal or spiritual death. Britney Spears is a tragic hero because she stopped caring what the public thought of her and eventually lost…
