Why do people do anything as long as public figure does it first?
We all yearn for fame or wished to be known. Everybody wants to be appreciated and praised at the same time. The world we are is controlled by certain people. Among these people are celebrities. These are the people who pass information via artistic means - music or drama.
These people always try to lead by example. It could be for positive or negative reason but we are somehow affected by what they do and try to emulate them.
Sometimes i wonder if we truly have what we can call our own principles. Most of the things in the world today were first done by some people before others picked them up and turn them around.
There is always a first person to anything. Not all these people are known but we know someone must have started something 'A' first before others joined.
In the world today, we are somehow obsessed with anything celebrity does. Whenever an individual does something, people look at him or her disdainfully but when same thing is done by a known figure, such action is praised. People, in fact, emulate such things as if it is norm.
If an artist decided to wear boxers with a jacket and walk on the street with fine sneakers, people will praise him and even wear it the next day. But an 'ordinary' person cannot just wake up and do this.
The question now is, are we pawns that are being controlled by the popular figures? Is it the case that only these celebrities understand fashion? Is it the case that they can only decide which fashion is wrong or right? Why is it that we always want to do anything they do?
It is even funny when people replicate anything a notable figure did and quick to reference it as the rationale behind their actions!
Is it the case that we don't have brains we can call our own to question and reject these things as 'trash'?
Are we their pawns or it is a normal thing to do what they do? What do you think?
Thanks for your time. @smyle
Oh mahn, this is the everyday type of crap...and its def not stopping.
A real crap! I doubt if it will stop too. I am just curious about the rationale behind it.
Personally i do not believe in that trend.
I really believe in my style
And i see and feel people trying to follow my steps.
Some of us just decide to lead or follow
Some decides to copy or paste
.
Hmmm! It is good to be you!
It's simply because most of the people tend to act like others to feel accepted and that's a wrong kind of a thinking because we are all unique and they want to put same mindset to others
You are very correct! Everybody is unique. We just have to live our own life! Thanks for your contribution.
The things we see tends to drive us..
We want to be the same
It's being since the epoch I think it will go on like that
Truly, we are sometimes driven by what we see. I do not see it stopping anytime soon either. I just made the post, may be some of us will have a rethink about this trend.
Celebrity is a feeling..
It works with our personalities.
Wat you see yourself as is what it is.
Hmmm! Are you a celebrity? Or you are simply saying we are all celebrities? Or by feeling being a celebrity, i am a celebrity?
I still don't understand the celebrity craze like anything they do, people want to replicate either good or bad. What makes a celebrity a standard for others to follow?
I don't get too dear. Some people just want to feel among!
