Oh vulgarity. Almost 2 weeks ago, the U.S. entertainment industry celebrated their biggest and brightest stars in the Academy Awards. Now that its all over, its as if America totally forgot about cinema's biggest night and went straight back to the "wannabe" celebrities. Wait, scratch that...they ARE celebrities! But what sets them apart is that they're not famous because of their talent, or philanthropy...they're famous because of their "vulgar" taste in having fun; their "kitsch" lifestyle.
Most of these overnight celebrities are reality stars, like "Jersey Shore" or "Kardashians". But what really is it about them that makes America get so obssessed with these type of people? Do they think its a quick acess towards fame and fortune by acting all trashy and sexy? Or is it because we can relate to these people? Who knows, but one day..just one day...the U.S. would finally say "adios" to these "celebrities".
Oh, for a quick read, here's an article about a celebrity (this time a real celebrity) who bashes on these overnight celebrities:
