It is commonly believed that people should not invade other people's personal lives. When it comes to lives of famous poeple who are on Tv, magazine, or newspaper, however, the story would be different since they are paid to sell themselves on media and the public have right to know what is happening in celebrity world.
First of all, a big attention to the personal lives of famous poeple is justified because they are sellin thier images on advertisement or even in election. This is telling us that public figures are literally 'public figures'. What they say and how they act represent themselves and the whole image of enterprise. In order to fullfill thier own duty as a job, they should know some amount of duty to manage their personal lives as well. In real life, there was this happening that one famous Korean actress harmed tremendously on pure image of the cosmetic company that she was working for after she turned out to be a drug-freak by magazine. Media serves as eyes on thier behavior so that they can always feel duty on themselves and be publically responsible.
Secondly, media deserves to do their job because we all have right to know about our favorite stars as a fan. Without attention and love from their fans, I would say they can't exist on top as a superstars today. From my own experience, I believed my favorite singer saying that he doesn't have a girlfriend and has never been in any relationship. Few month later, media revealed the truth of his relationship that is saying he has been in one realtionship for more than seven years. To people who liked him for seven years expecting that they could be his girlfriend oneday, this exposure was a shock. Some of his fans did not want to be his fan anymore and got out of (got out of 가 구어적표현인가요??left 를 쓰는게 나은지??)his fanclub. What I was more disappointed in him was that he had been lying to the public who truly supported him just to keep up his popularity. If it were not media, I would not be able to figure out that my favorite singer has been lying to 300,000 of his fan and still be one of his loyalist fan.
All in all, We all know that famous poeple themselves know that they can not be totally free from media. Therefore they should try to show some respect at least thinking of being a good role model of product and try to appreciate thier fans. Somebody have to play the heavy part and actually TMZ can't be exception. |
