Discussion essay: Being a celebrity is a good thing


We've all ever wondered how would be to be someone famous. In fact, is the dream of many people. When we see celebrities who appear on TV, or magazines, at first sight it seems to us that they live in paradise, in a dream. But is it really so? We know perfectly that no. Being a celebrity has its good things and bad things.
There are two main advantages that celebrities have: money and fame.
When you become a famous person, you win lots of money, and it lets you buy things you always wanted, you can some of your dreams, travel to a lot of places, new experiences. You can buy a lot of houses full of luxuries, cars, even private jets. You can let explode all your lust.
And also there’s the fame. Fame is something that attracts many people. People like to be known and popular, have fans and people who identify with them. Celebrities go to big and expensive parties and they appear on television and all media.
But obviously, not all are benefits.
There are many, perhaps too many bad points. Your private life disappears completely. You're always being chased by paparazzi who take all the photos they can to publish them. And it doesn't matter if you're not working, if you are in holidays or at home, there is no privacy. There are many rumors and speculations about your life, public and private, and often is all a lie. You can't do anything without being criticized, you have to live up to a celebrity, and if you don't do it they judge you badly.
In conclusion I think that becoming a very famous person brings many frustrations, and the quality of life deteriorates. I think the ideal would be to stay in a half point, and have more freedom, although I don't know if it's possible.

Nice post Anna , my comment is that the hollywood stars have a so big weight to listen the fans, the newsman questions, and only what the stars are doing is to sing, dance , role a movie or write books and they are disgusted with theyr lifes cause the people don't let them to relax, and things happens like in the britneys ffoto , i don't like her, hahah i wanna see the fans lookong at this photo.
