So this post is just a mixture of things that I have come to realize, or have been realizing but I decided not to acknowledge them.
We are all surrounded by lies. Constantly, every single day we wake up and are faced with the horrifying truth that there are lies everywhere we turn. I do not mean to be offensive towards anyone, but I just need my thoughts to be put out there.
For me, when I see myself and look at the world around me it is honestly sad and pathetic. It's hard for me to be "myself" because "myself" isn't accepted as whats "normal" or "beautiful". When actually the "beauty" we see in our celebrities is truly false. They are people, just like you and I and we continue to place them on a high pedestal. And honestly I feel sorry for the people with their names in the spot light, because they have to be "perfect" ALL THE TIME. And truthfully if you think about the fact that they have to go through full on make up and hair every time you leave to go anywhere, and make sure that you look "red carpet ready" is sad.
- I read an article in a magazine (I am not quoting) saying what was Britney spears and her kids thinking when they wore sweat pants to take the dog to the vet. <- if nothing in that sentence bothers you then in my opinion your to materialistic. Who really gives a rats ass, shes going to the vet for goodness sakes not the academy awards. It honestly pathetic that that's what is FRONT PAGE NEWS in magazines when there are possibly more important things happening.
And whats even worse is that people, girls and boys; men and women all around the world are sucked into the false realities of that's what they should be like.
We constantly want to pick the brains of the people we idol, and see what a day in their shoes is really like. We want to be them, lets be honest. We want their cars, and their money and their fame and to have millions of people looking up to you. When actually being a celebrity and loved is probably one of the hardest jobs anyone can take. You actually have to be able to complete what ever talent or task you're good at, you have be "in shape" aka far to skinny to function. You have to be a role model to millions of people who all think differently and have different opinions. There will be people out there who will love you to bits, hate you beyond belief, fan girl you, stalk you and lots of other crazy things. What people don't realize is that WE GIVE THEM POWER, WE GIVE THEM MONEY, WE MAKE THEM FAMOUS. If it wasn't for us spending our rent checks on their movie premieres, CD's, concerts, and television shows and a million other forms of propaganda: they would be just like us. Their wealth and entire existence depends entirely on us and whether or not we choose to love them, or hate them or love to hate them they wouldn't be that "famous celebrity" if it wasn't for us.
PS. This goes for people that we make into celebrities like famous youtubers, bloggers, instagramers, etc. They have it hard just as much as the more well known celebrities do.
Well I'm gonna stop for now because I hate writing long articles. Sorry for any grammatical errors, and such.
Peace and love,
Oni.
