CELEBRITY CULTURE







Everybody wants to be famous, everybody wants to be a celebrity. X-Factor and Fame Academy for the novices, Strictly Come Dancing for those well-knowns who are slipping from A-list to Z-list.
Danielle Lloyd - on-off girlfriend of footballer Teddy Sheringham and tied up in the Big Brother race-row recently bought a house in Essex for two million pounds.
This is staggering. Only in England can someone who has nothing to offer reap such rewards.
It's no wonder millions want to follow suit. Losers are winners here and that's a fact.
Celebrity Circus, Celebrity Chef, Celebrity Scissorhands (when Z-listers learn to be a hair-stylist) are regularly on our screens. How about Celebrity Suicide where viewers can vote for the one who tops themselves once a week?
Jade Goody made her millions, was tied up in the aforementioned race row and fell to earth with a loud bump!
A pathetic aplogy, a bit of charity work and she's back on her screens with her perfume back on the shelves.
This is worrying, Children as young as fourteen have been quoted to say "without this I've nothing" as Simon Cowell tells them they sound like choking cats. Get a life!
Westlife, Girls Aloud, Sugababes, the list is endless. Making millions and called "bands".....erm where are the guitars and drums?
Every week there's a new celebrity magazine. EXCLUSIVE! Posh Spice's new lipstick colour! And it sells.
Your blogger here has one or two famous faces he likes, a supermodel nd a singer. None of them crave publicity but the media love them and loath them so they will always be in he spotlight. Kate Moss and Morrissey the two in question.
The Fame Game. If you win then good luck but the stakes are high.
