Beyond our own hometown circles, celebrities are sources for inspiration through media because they are seen by so many eyes. A lot of it can be enhanced or degraded through who we hang out with and who inspires us. Sure some of our traits comes from nature but a lot of it comes from nurture. The only reason why each one of us lives the way we do today is because of how our friends, families, and schools have molded us. We trust that our friends won’t betray us. We trust that the food we eat at a restaurant isn’t poisoned. We trust that that car won’t just run us over when we cross the street. The trust that we have between each other is the most valuable currency we can exchange. We are all linked together because we need one another to help each other. We live as families, in communities, in neighborhoods, in cities, and states, and nations that all thrive off of one another. To say a celebrity is not responsible for his or her actions is saying that as human beings, our lives aren’t all somehow connected. When I was at the Taylor Swift concert a few days ago, I noticed all the girls were dressed like Taylor! A lot were blonde and had a very thin frame too. ![]() Celebrities are leaders who have an army of fans that will back them up, dress like them, act like them, and at the deepest level, wanna be like them. And with power comes the ability to change people, events, and history. You know, people who are famous hold a lot of power. I care about you so much because you made Blogilates what it is. I am overly grateful for the friendships and the POPster community that has grown out of our commonality for wanting to get fit. I am beyond thankful that you actually use these tools. ![]() I create free workout videos, meal plans, calendars, and cooking shows for you because it satisfies me to know you’re finding your healthier self. I thought about where I am, what I do, and if I feel like I have a responsibility to be a good role model to you guys. How people choose to be influenced is their decision and they should deal with the consequences.īut then…I thought about it some more. My initial thought was no, they just happen to be famous for being them, and they should do what they please because it’s their life and it’s who they are. And this is where the lines get kinda murky for me and what Miley or any person of influence does.ĭoes a celebrity have a responsibility to be a good role model? I’m not judging Miley for how she dresses, acts, or wants to express herself – I think it is very important for people to release what their feeling by either talking it out, working it out, painting it out, fashioning it out…whatever…as long as you don’t hurt anyone. So I just wanted to discuss the topic of celebrities being role models. You can see for yourself the VMA performance below: Well yesterday she took it to a WHOLE ‘NOTHER LEVEL. Dancing teddy bears, french fry skulls, humping, and lots of twerking – it was like nothing I’d seen before. Clearly, Miley Cyrus has been the hot topic of the season ever since she cut her hair, started looking like Pink, and released her very cathartic We Can’t Stop music video. To me, happiness is living in truth - or as Ghandi once said, "Happiness is when what you think, what you say, and what you do are in harmony.This topic has been lingering on my mind for a while but it definitely challenged me yesterday after watching the VMAs. Happiness has been defined as anything from accepting life for what it is, to feeling content, connected, accomplishing things, being in the flow, spending time with family or in nature. Over the past few years, I've asked many people, in a wide variety of life stages - and cycles - the question, "How do you define happiness?" Thinkers, scientists, entrepreneurs and creatives have revealed their answers, and each of them has said and told something completely different. So I made it my mission to examine the mystery of happiness in detail. Today, I'm not surprised that I haven't achieved either. I used to think that happiness would wait for me and find me once I was "perfect". Happiness is such a confusing thing - the more we try to find it, the more complicated it gets. ![]()
