It seems that everybody wants to be a celebrity today. Maybe they don't really think that they will be on Entertainment Tonight, but in their own world they dream of being the "It" person.
I'm not sure why people crave celebrity. What I do know is this: If all you do to claim celebrity is what everybody else is doing then you are bound to fail.
This is what I mean:
Walk through any mall in the country. What do you see? Young women, most still in high school, all wearing similar clothes.
Short Tight Dresses
Revealing Tops
Low riding pants that reveal too much
Faces plastered with an obsessive amount of make-up
The young men are not any better:
Pants that are 4 sizes too big and therefore falling off
Multiple piercings, in the ears, nose, lips, eyebrows, and God knows where else
Spiked and brightly colored hair
Tattoos everywhere
Of course not all young people dress like this...but it sure seems like the majority do.
The Problem: Young people want to be different. It is the reason they choose to dress like failed actors that didn't get the part in
