Being a celebrity: a dream or a nightmare?
Nowadays, the ‘celebrity’ term is more associated with televisions or Hollywood stars than the rest of famous or well-known person. For example, you can be a very good lawyer, like Amal Alamuddin, and you can be a well-known person in your profession, but you aren’t a celebrity until you get married with George Clooney. What is clear is that being a celebrity could be a dream or a nightmare.
Firstly, when you are a famous person you have, almost always, a lot of money and you are allowed to travel around the world. In addition, you can take part in social activism. For example, Emma Watson fights for gender equality. But the main advantage of being a celebrity is that you do what you want to do.
On the other hand, you’ve lost your privacy, and this includes that the people will want to take photos with you in a restaurant or in the cinema queue. Another disadvantage is that perhaps your close friends aren’t such a good friends and they go out with you about your fame.
To sum up, I would say that be a celebrity could be great. However, you can forget about what kind of famous you want to be. Are you a Jersey Shore start or the next Marie Curie?

When we want to evaluate a thing, we almost always judge it looking at the outer shell of it!
In this case, being a celebrity is an exciting idea and most of us never refuse to be a celebrity. However, as Elizabeth says being a celebrity bring some responsibilities to unknown people along with money!! Celebrities have to explain why they are not in their good mood, or why their relationships end pretty soon!
So, lets don't bother ourselves, why we are not celebrities! lets have a fun and get pleasure out of our privacy and calm life style!
