What Makes You Famous?

    What makes someone famous? Some people can act, some can sing, and some may be model material but why is this what media chooses to show us? Sure, everyone needs a job, but a model gets theirs based solely on their looks. They may be skinny, or have nice hair, or a great complexion, but then this is what teens in society compare themselves to. For example, seeing the skinny model would make certain people try to lose weight. This is usually done in a very unhealthy way and to people who do not need to lose weight or have the weight to lose. The image that is perceived by these models is often impossible as well for the pictures are computer edited to make the models look skinnier and perfect in every way. Teens also would begin to think that this imagine is the only way one should look, including clothing. When models dress in inappropriate clothes that aren’t meant for young people, those in society, whether young or old would see it and believe it is the way they should be. This would cause people to strive for the impossible and hurt themselves to look ‘good’. The feeling of looking good is also usually based upon how others see you, not how you see yourself to be.
    People are classified to be famous, not only for their talents but for their looks.
