How can celebrity culture be so harmful to our society? Celebrity culture is beneficial because of many reasons. The celebrity culture can inspire fans or followers of the celebrity into many good things, and can also help take stands for things that need to be talked about. Celebrity culture is beneficial. Celebrities can help inspire fans by just doing good for the community and helping others. For example, LeBron James, a famous basketball player with millions of fans, inspires kids by caring…
When we think of superstars we think of people who are rich and living the best life possible. Everyone wants to be in their shoes. Celebrities often try to hide who they really are to be what they think the world visons them as. Fantasia Monique Barrino was a different kind of “Superstar”. She is an example of coming from nothing as an African American female, to using her talents to rise and inspire the world, especially African American teenage females. Because of her troubled past and…
everybody has seen the late night and early morning acne infomercials with Jessica Simpson and Sean "Diddy" Combs. I guess they figure, if a celebrity trusts something, then so should you. The promises made for the product sound surreal, and yet for many people it may be just the cure they're looking for. Even so, it may not be for everybody. One of my daughters who had acquired a bad case of acne in recent years, tried the infomercial solution, and it didn't work on her at all. Being a young…
frequently in the spotlight of American entertainment, news, and life. When the idea of a celebrity began, the earlier celebrities focussed on encompassing all people and encouraging peace and agreements. The contemporary celebrity, on the other hand, focuses more on using their fame to promote politics and does not appeal to a wide range of people. Contemporary culture is dominated by an image which represents something or someone and causes disillusionment between reality and illusion. Yet,…
Celebrities are looked up to in society and are treated differently than us. They get treated worse if they do something bad and they get treated better if the do something good. Celebrity Culture is harmful because they are not always going to do “good” ,them doing something bad is worse than if we do something bad because it’s all over the news. We all admire them and want to be like them in a way. If they do something bad than it might inspire us to do something bad. TV shows have made…
of her responses down and help her edit them. My perception of the interview was, does she really talk like this, or is this another one of those publicity stunts? I’m not saying that she is uneducated, but she should know that there are places, people, and a certain time that you should act properly. A live interview should have been one place she knew to present herself accordingly. She is a character; I found the part about being asked to be a Godmother more often, when they know you have…
celebrities impact the choices children make. By their nature, celebrities enjoy a rare visibility not achieved by many. Many have used that asset to promote awareness and garner support for international diplomacy, raise money for charities and encourage people to adopt healthier habits. I believe these efforts can be beneficial, however, I disagree with Beyonce's video and the message it promotes. Obesity is a complicated issue often rooted in negative emotions. Low-self esteem,…
preface of the artwork, these plague doctors are described as opportunistic quack doctors who took advantage of the helpless people by giving them false hope.

going to commercial, actor Foxx made several hand gestures that were meant to mimic a sign language interpretation of what Fallon was saying, making Fallon laugh. However, all the “signs” were made up, as Foxx was attempting a joke at the expense of people who use sign language. Actress Marlee Matlin tweeted in response: “Mr. @iamjamiefoxx. I'd be happy to give you sign language lessons so you could be funnier.” and model Nyle DiMarco did as well: “It is straight up disrespectful…
drilled into today’s minds that racism is only one sided, and if you say Shelby is racist for her shooting, than the only fair way to interpret this is to say that Saunders was racist too. Further, these cases prove that the ‘discrimination’ some people think exists in the police world does not just fall onto the whites of the world. But, the question to think about is: why did this go unheard of in media? This lying by omission that occurs could be because of today’s society. The truth is that…
