Youth Obsession With Celebrities

It starts when kids are able to speak their first words, or maybe when their old enough to remember a song that they heard, or when they see someone on t.v do something that they want to emulate. We all pick out our role models, whether its our parents, uncles, older sisters, or brothers and the most ever popular celebrities. Why do we pick these celebrities as role models, why are we obessed with their lives more than we are our own? I mean dose it really matter how many times J.Lo gets married? Or if Lindsey Loham's breast are real? These celebrities are what we call the root of perfection. Wouldn't you kill to have Sharkira abs or Angelina Jolie lips. My point is we love it! Celebrities are interesting and keep us from really dealing with the real world and our own real problems. The media is sending us the message that Their extravagant lifestyle and larger than life demeanor is what we should all want. Our role models are a better version of what we wish to be, so we are constantly Trying to fix ourselves on the out side to be another version of them. My thoughts are we spend so much time trying to look, sound, and act like them to be a better image of ourselves.
