9 Actresses Recount WORST Fan EMBARRASSMENTS.
The concept of celebrity, as you know by now if you read my posts, is very intriguing to me. It's very interesting to see how very regular, very normal people take on this otherworldy persona in people's heads. A regular girl from Port Harcourt who was buying fried meat and Ribena juice in primary school suddenly becomes this higher image in our head simply because she's gone on to attain fame.

7 Celebrity Pranks That Went TOO FAR.
These went 0 to 100 real fast. Earlier in the week I wrote about 7 Celebrities Who Are NOTHING Like They Seem. Because the world is always watching, celebrities are not allowed the same kind of public freedom to express the full range of their emotions, especially negative ones.

A Filmmaker's Guide to the Best Films by Quentin Tarantino
Quentin Tarantino is one of the world's foremost storytellers and has created some of the most incredible satirical works in cinema history. He has managed to transcend genres and give his work the authentic seal of his own style which means you only have to watch the trailer to know the work is that of Tarantino. His explorations into creating great auteur cinema has become one of his best attributes and his ability to create satires that feature key moments such as murder to jazz music, insane amounts of profanity and multiple sub-plots that converge upon each other in the final act of the film have become signature to him so that others who use this style are accused of copying him.

Flash, Flair, and Flynn
He emerged out of nowhere and became the face of Hollywood’s golden age. On camera, he was the ultimate swashbuckler and rogue lover; yet beyond the silver screen, Errol Flynn couldn't be any different from what audiences thought he was. For he had an extreme lust for life, was married three times, had numerous love affairs, spent money like it grew on trees, sailed entire oceans, wrote about his involvement in international wars and revolutions, and died penniless. Even today, he is still debated, whether or not he was a human embodiment of alpha male masculinity or a drunken womanizer who used the American studio system as a tool to get what he desired. A saint or a sinner. Yet all can agree that he was fact, not fiction.

The American Jekyll & Hyde
A genius to some and a madman to others. Through his writing, he wished to strengthen the 1960’s counter culture and expose the truth about America, by means of drugs, alcohol, violence, and firearms. He is idolized by a generation and feared by those who were closest to him. In the end, he realized that at the age of 67, he could no longer control or live up to the entity for which he cad created; resulting in a final bang from a Smith & Wesson pistol.

Jane Levy... Underrated Gorgeousness
Alright so a while ago, I started watching NBC's "Zoey's Extraordinary Playlist" and it's a phenomenal show. That's saying something since I don't like musicals, it takes the musical genre and it does what I've been wondering about it for years. What if a character can see the musical numbers but no one else can? I love it!

7 Times Celebrities Got REALLY ANGRY On Video.
There is something about celebrity. Celebrity status makes regular people become these "super people" in our heads. People who don't get angry in public, who smile and clap even when they lose out on awards, keep their composure in even the most uncomfortable public situations so as not to ruin their reputation or bring bad press their way.

Influencers
Influencers. Influencers influencing children into buying their weird rich people shit. The term ‘influencer’ is someone with a large, usually online platform, who, you guess it ‘influences’ those who follow them. I suppose by that definition you could say Charles Manson was the ultimate influencer. Not to really compare Paris Hilton to Charles Manson, there are a plethora of differences between them. Paris is way cuter. To name one. I detest the title of ‘influencer,’ something about it is cocky and so arrogant. I imagine Jake Paul and all the clones who follow suit (who seem to be made in a weird surfer supreme dude factory) typing influencer into all of their social media bios, and thinking to themselves, ‘I’ve done it. I’ve become a total tool.’ Influencer, sounds like something the weird horse girl would say she was doing when she got everyone in my third grade class to watch ‘Spirit.’ Even so, she had more impact then some of these people do. What makes someone an influencer? Be conventionally attractive (this is a REQUIREMENT!) those who do not follow this ancient, and most noble rule will be executed. Have the self awareness of a stool, and vanity of Lord Farquad from ‘Shrek.’ The IQ of the wild influencer does fluctuate, many are reported saying ‘yes, I dropped out of highschool junior year, but before that I was on the honour roll!’ Whilst others simply never made it that far. Of course, know that I hold no ill will towards these internet personalities, (I’m just naturally bitter) I simply, and wholly, destest the word in which they use to appear more respected by the mainstream media which hates them anyways. When it is just a more glamourous way of saying ‘I make youtube videos.’ Kylie Kardashian and the rest of the Kardashian Klan, are also regarded as influencers, there is of course truth to this term. Kim Kardashian started the trend of the ‘perfect’ hourglass figure, which is encompassed by big boobs, a tiny waist and a big posterior. This has always been a standard of beauty for women, however it became much more apparent when her and the rest of her clan got the surgery to prove it. Influencers main job, and only job is to sell products. A modern day sales man, though instead of selling paper, they sell diet suppressing lollipops which good ol Kimmy did, to her young and impressionable fan base, who were greatly influenced. But hey, influencers go through a great deal of trouble themselves! Their just like the 99% only rich. As well as better looking. They have the oncoming fear, the oncoming world ending North Korea nuke of being..
