When thinking about the way that celebrities live you always have to think about the animals at the zoo. The mighty lion standing behind the large concrete embankment, meant to keep everybody safe with people looking at him all day long. This has got to be how it feels. There is nothing that celebrities can do and get away with. Everything is seen, everything is scrutinized and god help their public image if they do something a little selfish. Everyday we buy things for ourselves and we make choices that don't directly benefit anybody other than ourselves, but if a celebrity does this then they are selfish.

They buy big beautiful cars, large gemstones and massive houses but this is all ok, it is for the image, right? They deserve these things because they need to get something they have no privacy they have no secrets. The National Enquirer makes sure of that. As if the secrets that the public are fed wasn't enough we had to develop the two of the most unholy unions. The tabloids, those fantastic little rag mags that tell us in detail all of the comings and goings of celebrities today and the then just for good measure if we are not impressed with what they have for us they make some stuff up. Then there are the paparazzi this interesting little group that is around for the sole purpose of digging up dirt on the stars. what a life it must be having a job that allows you to destroy other people with your gossip and be rewarded for it.
As I get ready for work today I know that my children will be coming home on the school bus and they will be left alone for the most part. There will not be a note attached to the backpack in my kids seat telling me that my child will be safe if I hand over ten million dollars in reality, if the kidnappers stole my children they would pay me to take them back. Those adorable little angels. So as my life is safe and secure as safe and secure as it can be in todays society. I feel so bad for celebrities and the price that they pay for stardom and ask yself why anybody would do it. Going through life where your recognized in an instant, would be a miserable way to live.
