Hating

Hating on celebrities has become almost like a sport. Everyone is trying to outdo the other by leaving the most hateful comments on a social network. Now I'm not judging, because I know I've done it too. But when you think about why you do it you realize it makes you kind of pathetic. The main reason people like seeing famous people mess up is because it makes them...or us, feel better about ourselves. We feel 'well at least I'm not as bad as so and so...'.

When someone in the music business, whos music I really like, does something really stupid (or even more than one thing) it doesn't have any impact on the quality of the music. If I like a song by a person I really don't like, then I'm going to listen to it. Bad/annoying/stupid people can in fact make good music, so what do I care what they're doing? If it's a good song then what does it matter what the person singing is doing in their PERSONAL lives?

I feel like movie actors/actresses get a lot less hate than say musicians or TV actors. I don't really understand why this is....But just because someone who plays in my favorite movie does something I don't like, it's not going to make we hate the movie.

Also, I try my very best to ignore what a person did and focus on the why they did it. If they have a good reason, or even a bad reason, then how can we blame them? I don't like the way people place celebrities on pedestals and expect them to do everything right, they're only human, they also make mistakes. Some more than others, but still. I know this post isn't going to make people stop hating, but I just wanted to get my opinion out there.

Don't hate the player people, hate the cheating ;)
