You versus the Celebrities

Why is America so obsessed with celebrities? Do we have nothing better to do than to follow every move that celebrities make?

There must not be any excitement in the lives of the masses that they seek to live vicariously through their favorite celebrity.

Do you honestly care that Britney Spears shaved her head and is rehab? Does this little nugget of information better your existence somehow? Or how about Brad Pitt, Angelina Jolie, and Jennifer Aniston. What do you expect to gain by knowing the latest gossip surrounding them? Maybe it provides some form of entertainment, but I'd much prefer to watch one of their movies for entertainment instead of following their every move.

Why don't you try to find something exciting to do with your own life. Have you ever considered that the reason celebrities' lives are interesting is because they're actually out doing things. Instead of marvelling at their successes and following their failures, go out and find your own success. Do you think the celebrities sit at home trying to catch up on all the latest gossip?

So many people want to be like their favorite celebrity. They try and dress like them. They want to talk like them. They try to act like them.

Why do you want to wear clothes with someone else's name on the back?

Are you that unhappy with your life that you wish you were someone else?

Go out and do something with your life. Stop hoping and wishing, and start doing. There's no reason that you can't be just as successful as the next guy have you're own interesting life.
