| Re: Is there a social impact on celebrity obsession? There are a lot of thrash magazines that report solely on celebrity scoops, their latest cars, watches, girlfriends, boyfriends, sex video tapes and more. I can't understand why anybody would read them. They are all thrash and base their stories on gossips and scoops. Who cares if Britney has a new boyfriend. It's not like she didn't have one last week.
I can vouch that in my society, celebrity obsession is very minimal. Most of the obsessed teen girls here worship Japanese and Korean stars, but they don't go so far as to adopt their ways. Those who do, eventually stop as they grow older. |
