Being famous can be stressful. According to stylecaster.com George Clooney, a famous celebrity, quoted “I haven’t walked in Central Park for 15 years. I’d like to, you know?” he says “The truth is you run as fast as you can toward it because it’s everything you want. Not just the fame but what it represents, meaning work, meaning opportunity.” Being famous doesn’t give you many opportunities in life.
According to Can Fame Make You Happy, “Justin Bieber has been spending most of his time apologizing for his bad behavior. He’s been arrested for drunk driving and charged with vandalism”. This explains that being famous can change your whole life, and make act different. Being famous would be nice because you would have a lot of money. You have people looking up to you when they get older. According to “Can Fame and Fortune”, “Jennifer Lawrence gets amazing perks, like free clothes from top designers, front-row seats at the award shows, and trips around the world”. Stars lives may look easy and fun, but it can be very hard and stressing. Despite their fame and fortune, many celebrities may not be as happy as they seem. According to a recent study, true happiness doesn't come from attention and fame. Turns out, the happiness that comes from fame is fleeting. “It’s the kind of happiness you get when you buy a new purse,” explains Donna Rockwell, a psychologist who specializes in celebrity mental health. “That kind of happiness fades within no time.” being famous is like just asking for attention from other people, because thew Doing what you want to do can be just as effective as doing what you have to do to make money. Over Christmas break, it started out boring, but when it got closer to Christmas Day it started to be fun. We went to a lot of Christmas parties. My aunt Barb organized a little family Christmas party on my dad’s side of the family. My sister, my cousin Maddi, and me, all had to go outside to get something out of Maddi's mom and dads car and when we got out their Emma was running and didn't know their was ice on the gravel and she slippedand fell on the ice, we all just started bursting out laughing. Emma and my cousin Maddi decided to go on the ice again and they both almost fell again. Then we got some food and played with our little cousins and mine and Sadie’s nephew for the rest of the time. On Christmas Eve my older brother RJ came up for the weekend from Tennessee. We had a little get together with some cousins and friends. All of the little kids frosted cookies, and we got everybody a gift to open on Christmas Eve. Everybody just sat around and played board games and ect. On Christmas Day we went to my grandma’s house to see how she was doing, because she just got out of the hospital. |
