Ugly teenage star is ugly
Anyway, yes, a lot of these teen stars are setting horrid examples for teenage girls. However, I think that while they may be celebrities, they're just as fallible as the rest of us. With the way celebrities are scrutinized all the time, I feel sort of bad for them. I think I'd probably go crazy too and end up needing to go to rehab. I mean, this girl is, what, fifteen or sixteen years old? Her every move is dicussed and scrutinized, and if she does something wrong, she gets critized by the media and by squawking parents. Hey, it's nice that your kid idolizes her, but it's sort of unfair to put all that pressure on her. And if your kid is THAT easily influenced by a celebrity, you've failed as a parent, I think. I don't know why we expect "better" of celebrities. They're just as normal, stupid, or weak as the rest of us. They just happen to make tons of money.

Um, anyway, I really could care less about the situation. If your child is delusional and stupid enough to idolize every stupid teenage actress they see on Nickelodeon or Disney, you're not raising them right in the first place. Any parent with half a brain is going to raise their children to not pay attention to that stuff, or at least not idolize it. Soooo I say if kids are dumb enough to follow all that and try to copy their favorite sluts *cough* I mean stars, then let them screw themselves over. Same goes for all these young actresses, too. Most of it is all publicity stunts anyway.
|
You're kidding, right? She's gained five pounds, which is automatically gross.  Most "stars" look like they need 10-15lbs more on them at least.
What've you got against women who actually have curves?
Sorry, but that sort of attitude really gets on my nerves. (rhyme not intended.  )
And yes, child stars are just as vulnerable to succumbing to the excesses and pains of fame, and apparently often much less able to cope than mature adult celebrities are. It's important, because these children set role models for other children.
Smoking, crack-addicted babies don't have a place on children's television. Sorry Stewie. (though Family Guy isn't exactly children's TV.)
It's a shame, truly. I feel sorry for alot of child stars, and the way they're hounded by the media in such a way. Perhaps there should be laws (if there aren't already) protecting them from unwanted media coverage.

Hrmm, kinda reminds me off the rich kids that live around here. They have so much but they use their daddy's money to spend it on hard drugs.
Well, what can you do? Some people are glad that these child stars get messed up so they can laugh at them. Look at Britney, I do feel bad for her. Some see her as a scapegoat. "Well my life isn't as bad as Britney's! Let's continue to laugh at her!"
Kids usually idolize someone, and I'm sure we all have at point of our lives. Girls are idolizing the wrong people obviously, but you also have toy stores such as Toys R US selling tramp stamp removable tattoos. Hell, look at Bratz dolls! They're showing basically telling girls that's is the "cool" way to dress.

Pretty much the same here. Celebrities don't bother me at all. They're normal people that do normally stupid shit, just like anyone else. All that they've got is spotlight.
Having the spotlight doesn't make you much different than anyone else or a God of perfection.
Alternatively, you're supposed to do stupid shit when you're young! That way you won't get caught fucking up when you're older. xD
But nah, doesn't bother me in the least.

i don't know why but in an Evil kind of way i enjoy watching the child stars as they grow up and are overwhelmed by the Evil force that is commonly known to most as Hollywood but i do like when one day they wake up and think "WTF!!! i need to sort my life out" but then again they normally check themselves out of rehab early because it is causing 'Bad publicity'

There's an even creepier picture of Miley out there now.
Come on, tell me that this picture with her dad is not creepy.

Oh whatever. Just because they're stars doesn't mean that they can't be teens. 13-18 are some really wacky years, where you test the boundary to adulthood and do some outlandish things because it's the growing point of your life. Jamie Lynn Spears and Miley Cyrus are human too, and just because they're famous doesn't mean that they can't make mistakes either.
Pregnancy isn't the best thing ever, but teens in this modern society get pregnant all the time. No, they're not being good role models, but I think that they're today's youth in a nutshell; a representation of what we are with all of the alcohol, drugs, and sex.
