Celebrities-Why So Admired?
I don't understand why celebrities are put on such a high petal stool. It's like its okay for them to ruin their lives but when it comes to regular people you consider them a "screw up". They do drugs, act like their higher than everyone else, and lead a life that children and teens want to pursue. I'm not judging you if you look up to someone famous but they should lead a better life for you to want to admire. I mean I even admire a few celebrities myself. But why can't we admire regular people?
I get it; they have money, nice cars, and mansions. But if you strip them of all of that they turn out to be just like you if not lower. I mean take the business woman who walks past you on the steet. She has a descent carreer, supports her husband and children, and is a caring induvidual. Why not admire her? Not to say that some celebrities are wrong or act with no sense. Really there are some that do have great qualities. All I'm saying is why not admire someone who is working hard to lead a moral life. Someone who cares about people and is sensible. They are the best model citizens to admire. Though it's easier to like someone for what they have or what they do. But just look at the full picture and then decide for yourself.

In my honest opinion, celebs are normal people who just hapene to be more well-known. The celebrities who get on drugs and stuff are the ones who can't handle the extra attention.
Real celebrities in my opinion are people who deserve the attention. These people are influential and intellectual people who use their status to help the world, such as advertising a charity.
People who get on drugs and don't really do anything but twitter about their latest catfight are not celebrities in my opinion. They are people who maybe were once great or never were who are somehow still handing onto a status.
Some normal people who aren't well-known maybe should be, but it could be their desicion to not, or just can't. It's just not written out for them.
I liked your article, though! Ans sorry for my huge loud opinion. ;)

Dylan has trainphobia. That is what I call the fear of trains. He was scared to move when the train horn blew. Then he got hit and I believe that he has had it ever since.
