Webster's defines "celebrity" as " a famous or celebrated person". If you have
ever encountered your favorite celebrity on twitter (or facebook) you may have discovered that many "celebrities" should not be celbrated but chastised.
I'll name names later but my first experience with twitter was dissapointing
because I thought if you see a celebrity that you like and want you to say "hi"
and say how much you like their body of work; I also thought the celebrity would
respond with a thank you.Only (2) Nick Cannon and Boris Kodjo responded.
I wonder what would happen if we (the fans) would turn our resources
and attention to actually TALENTED performers or "celebrities".
I'll tell you what would happen; untalented fops would have a lot less $ to
buy expensive toys and trips with which to make us "the fans" jealous to
the point that we "the fans" begin trying to find the most outrageous way to
become famous and the circle is never ending.
Here is the thing that really sticks in my craw; when we patronize a
celebrity in any way we contribute to THEIR well being. I wonder how we the fans
are acutally being plussed by "celebrities" like; J. Beiber, Rhianna, L. Gaga, C Sheen
and the like? We are not. Logic dictates if someone with influence is ruining your
society you address that situation by boycotting them letting them know it
is not o.k. to piss on police officers or walk around nude in public or film sexual encounters for the world to see; instead of actually having talent.
A celebrity should be able to stand on talent alone like Nick Cannon, Boris Kodjo,G. Knight, L. Vandeross,
A Franklin, A Baker, D. Washington etc.
I welcome comments from readers who think differently and of course I NEED to hear from readers who do feel the same. Either way this discussion is not over
