I’m nearly 40 and am a huge follower of celebrity culture and have been since I was in high school. I listen to a few really good pop culture podcasts and it’s a part of my life I get a kick out of.
Celebrities are just interesting to me and I like learning about them, the clothes they wear, where they live, what their lives are like, etc. Maybe it’s daydreaming about what it’s like to have a different life? Who knows? But it’s a fun way to spend my time.
And to be honest, all of my time is just frittered away so it doesn’t really matter what I do with it.
But to be fair, I’m also quite dumb (check my comment history for confirmation).
- xeromal 5y agoHahaha. I love this comment. No one ever things their "that guy", but being self-aware probably puts you ahead of a ton of people and I bet you're not dumb.
- xupybd 5y agoI did go through your comments and read the one about your mother. My dad passed of cancer yesterday. It was a lovely comment that helped.
- devmunchies 5y agoIn a similar vein I’d avoided all Marvel movies for years but just binged over the holidays. I get the allure, I found myself geeking out over the characters and actors. But I think it’s better for me to “visit” since I’ve been guilty of entertainment gluttony in the past and start missing life goals.
- mrintellectual 5y agoI think this paper is more about being fascinated with a particular celebrity rather than celebrity culture in general. Also took a look at your comment history - there isn't anything in there that would make me think you're dumb. Appreciate your forthrightness though.
