Topic: Has the media paid too much attention to celebrities?

With the development of amusement industry, there are many programs including a lot of information, and among them the personal lives of the celebrities are almost the highlights. I, however, strongly believe that the mass medias should not keeping too much to these people for many following reasons

The first reason why the mass medias should not pay too much attention to celebrities might be the negative effects on the public. In the modern day, the explosion of entertainment industry and television technology has resulted in many stars in a lot of aspects such as music, cinema, sports, or television game shows. As a result, the numbers of the audiences, who admire these stars, have increased substantially. Paying too much attention to their idols might affects the fans’ lives adversely. It can be stated that most of fans are teenagers or students, who are just young and dreamy. They may feel attractive and charming about the gorgeous lives of their idols. Tracing their idols day-to-day, these crazy fans can be distracted from their attention from their own lives their work and studying career. On the other hand, fans might tend to imitate the bad behaviours or lifestyles of some celebrities, or get disappointed, leading to feel gloomy or do not believe in the life.

Another reason is that keeping eyes on the celebrities is also an interference to them. Everyone has their own lives and their secrets that they have right to keep it in their minds and not to tell it to others. Thus, the mass medias, who want to draw their spectators and increase their revenue, often try to pick to pieces shortcomings in the celebrities' private lives. These stars are concerned about their whole lives and such silly things such as what they eat, what they do in their spare time, or even who they love. Many celebrities express their unpleasant or angry feelings because of a lot paparazzi, who always follow them. Nobody want to live a life without any privacy, even these public figures. In a competitive environment, these stars have endured many pressures from their peers and work, but now they also have to be pressed by mass medias, public opinions, and especially from their own fans. The urge of desire becoming perfect in front of their fans’ eyes and enormous workload makes these stars get stressed out and worn –out. As a result, when they meet failures, scandals, or trouble in their private lives, they might tend to decline. In many cases, especially in Korea, some stars even kill himself as an avoidance of everything.

Although the mass medias help the public know more about these famous people, it also interrupt their lives and bring many negative effects to fans. I do support that the mass media should not pay too much attention to these celebrities
