Why It Matters:Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous

Stars like Miley Cyrus and Justin Bieber are at the height of their fame. With both artists’ shocking new appearances and changes in music, everyone wants to know what is going on with them and what has caused the sudden change of looks and style. The media loves to critique celebrities on topics such as weight, fashion sense, relationships, and even the food they eat.

Miley Cyrus and Justin Bieber are just the most recent stars of note, the ones who the harsh spotlight shines on brightest. Both grew up in Hollywood from a young age, and many people feel as if they have watched them grow through their stages. They are used to the shady paparazzi that follow them around and pretend to be their friends, only to later print out rumors and lies about them.

Ever since Miley came out with her single “We Can’t Stop,” she has been judged nonstop because of her cheeky new style. From her new, revealing costumes to twerking to smoking, Miley has left many people in awe and shock. People have become angered at Miley for not keeping her Hannah Montana image and continuing to make kids happy.

Teen pop sensation Justin Bieber has made a fascinating turn into the world of R&B, while he’s still holding on to some of his old sounds. After his break-up with Selena Gomez, the media has reported countless rumors about Bieber, ranging from cheating on Selena to smoking in clubs to sleeping with a prostitute and even to visiting a strip club.

However, my question regarding both of these young stars’ behaviors and changes is so what! The only people who seem to really care about their changes are the people who continue to “cover” it to make more money for themselves. The stars’ fans know the truth, and that’s all that they seem to really care about. It is up to them to fix something if they feel like they need to. The only people really allowed to judge are those who know them well enough.

If these two were just regular people, others would not care as much as they do now. It is simply because they are celebrities and have such a big impact on others that people become so angry. If you are going to idolize someone, then know who you are idolizing; don’t pick someone who you think may change in a way you don’t like. If you consider yourself to be a true fan of him/her, then stick by him or her through the rough times.

Chances are, they will later come out with something amazing that everybody will end up liking, and they will once again become widely accepted. You can say that you’ve always been a true fan because you stuck by them when nobody else did.
