Good afternoon. I've been asked to talk about the way that celebrities live and the advantages and disadvantages of being a celebrity.
To start with, I have to say that it it is a pretty difficult subject because obviously I am not a celeb and besides I believe that how someone lives a social situation depends on the person he or she is.
I think that it would be interesting to define what we think a famous person is. A celeb is a very well known person by the society who appears often in media mass not only for achievements at work, sports, science and so on, but events in private life like relationships, marriages, divorces and so on.
A famous person has an special relationship with the media. They are famous because they appear in them and they use them to get money and to become more famous. On the other hand the media need famous people to sell more and to hire more publicity. Unfortunately there are a lot of people who love to learn everything about private life of celebrities.
The main advantages of being a celeb in my view are:
- Getting money without working. You only need to trade with your privacy.
- Their attendance is required in important social events both in your country and around the world.
- Making an incredible network of contacts. They probably know people whom most of us would like to know.
Moreover, the disadvantages are:
- You have to be careful with your relationships, because it is likely that you meet people whose only interest in you is that you are a famous person.
- You have to adapt to live being pursued by journalists or paparazzis. You can't go out anywhere in an anonymous way.
- Your privacy is known for everybody.
In conclusion there are positive and negative aspects of being a celeb. In any case life for them is not as pink as we might think.
