It's not that difficult to realize why so many people in this country, and pretty much the entire world, have a total obsession with celebrities and their every move. In this digital age it's even easier to delve into the celebrities' worlds with instant access on Google News and celebrity Twitter and Facebook pages. Celebrities live much more interesting lives than most of us do. They can fly around the world on a whim, go to exclusive parties with P. Diddy, buy kitchens as big as our homes and order takeout every night, and own five luxury cars despite have a personal chauffeur.
Despite what some haters might think, it's much nicer to be rich and not have to worry about how you're going to afford your doctor's appointment and groceries for the week. They can travel the globe and do things some of us can only dream about. And while that jealousy is completely understandable and somewhat normal, I can't wrap my brain around those who are truly obsessed with everything a celebrity does. Angelina Jolie popping out another kid, okay that's news worthy. Britney Spears shaving her head again, I'll glance at an article on that. But Beyonce seen eating at Quiznos, who cares? If you have ever watched one of those television shows like Access Hollywood, they talk about the most absurd news stories. Daniel Radcliffe seen drunk at a bar! Oh my, how scandalous! We're one step away from a celeb using a public restroom being news worthy.
And while I may find this mind numbing, a waste of time, and an invasion of privacy, there are so many Americans who completely disagree. They want to know all the latest gossip, hear every piece of information on a celebrity they can. It's part of the reason that every celebrity, mostly washed-up celebrities, have their own reality show. Is your life really that sad that you need to live vicariously through the Hogan family? Really, come on. You find Hulk Hogan's life interesting? He's not even a relevant celebrity anymore. But I assume people must be watching since the show is still on the air.
Celebrity worship is part of the reason most Americans are on anti-depressants. We see how glamorous and lavish the lives of other people are and we naturally become dejected about our own lives. Our lives will never reach that level and obviously we cannot find meaning unless we get to party with Lady Gaga every night. It's sad to know some people really view their lives as meaningless because they're not part of the 1%. Maybe if our culture wasn't so engrossed in the lives of others, we could enjoy the lives we were given.
