Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, YouTube, Snapchat etc. etc. There are many social networking sites available today for us. And you know! Who are dominating them?
CELEBRITIES, mostly actors and actresses are dominating the social world through internet.
You may ask me ‘how'.
If you are using these social platforms, you knew it already.
One guy uses his all social networks only to follow his favourite celebrities and click likes and comments on them.
He don't have a healthy connection between his friends and family on social networks.
He is there only to flood likes and shower comments on his favourite celebrities accounts.
Think, for all his effort and time. How many responses does he get in a day? Answer is sometimes ‘0’ and sometimes ‘2’. I bet it don't reach two digits.
Who is benefiting here? That one, celebrity.
Sacrificed sleeps and attention of a fan goes waste here.
The fan will say, it's love. He can't stop liking and commenting. Those likes are lifeless and many are just making the superstars famous.
Am not asking you to stop liking..but,___
Respecting a person is good. Liking and loving a person is good. But, when it impacts the attitude towards the others and when that likeness turns into obsession, there comes the trouble.
Liking and commenting on your favourite celebrity is good, but ignoring the people in real life isn't good.
When a celebrity posts that he/she is sick, thousands of comments flow. Once go and check the caring of those people who typed a paragraph of GWS post. When their family members even call and say they need help, there comes no reaction. How this can be supported?
Respecting is so far from obsession. Taking inspiration is different from walking in their shoes.
Imagine once, when a celebrity posted a picture and got ‘0’ likes. Because everyone thought that liking the other is unnecessary.
Liking a person who never like back or at least take time to respond is useless.
Then, it's not the celebrity anymore. Celebrities are celebrities, because we make them. Their talent only contribute 50%, the rest is what we accept.
Here is one person, who got upset about the same thing. He got frustrated after being a fan to a superstar since childhood. He got disappointed because of the carelessness of the superstar and his proud behaviour. Fan got hurt, it makes no difference to the superstar, because one gone, another gets in the club.
For example, go to a fan page of your favourite star and press that unlike button. What you see? Does it make any difference? The big value don't care a single person hitting unlike. It's not even considered.
But, the truth is. This ‘1 like' is what started everything.
This guy, who is now the upset fan. Decided to write one last letter to his superstar. Whom he respected and blindly followed him.
Let's see what he has to say to the superstar.
Dear Superstar,
I am your fan, I'm your admirer. I respect you and I like you. Am one of those likers who like your every status and your updates on social media.
Am never hurt to see that my comments disappear in the sea of your fans. Because am a fan too, I felt proud by watching you famous. I celebrated your birthday more than mine.
And still I didn't want any kind of attention from you. I know you are busy and I understand you.
I have a dream to meet you personally. I have no sound finance for that, so I satisfied myself seeing you on TV and social sites.
I have a dream to spend at least 5 minutes with you. But, I know it's your busy schedules which will prevent me from doing that.
You are doing that all for us, when we come to you with love, why don't you respect us? I never demanded any respect, am ready to undergo any disrespectful situation on the go.
But, you seem so selfish. Neglected to reply to many of your followers. Your careless behaviour is what made me rage. I need nothing from you, we need nothing from you. But, you, you need us. Without we, there is no you. Without our time, where is your fame?
Superstar, you are only a star because we are making you to shine. You are shining because we are lighting you.
When you boast that it's your luck, where does it came from? Luck without me isn't a luck to you.
I can't kill the respect I have for you. Am not going to stop liking you, but i'm limiting it. You made me realized how important are the real people in my life. You opened my eyes. And thanks for that dear Superstar.
-One of those likers
P.S : This post intended not to hurt anyone's feelings. If directly or indirectly hurt anyone. I apologize for that.
P.S.S : ‘Superstar' is the name represented to make an imaginative character of a celebrity, it doesn't offend any real titles, in that case it's not a title though. It's an imaginary name.
P.S.S.S : This post isn't requesting anyone to stop liking any celebrity. It is only focused on imaginative and fantasy writing.
WHAT THIS POST WANT TO SAY IS, FOLLOW AND RESPECT THOSE CELEBRITIES WHO HAVE TIME FOR THEIR FANS. EVEN IN THOSE BUSY-NESS, A REAL CELEBRITY SPENDS SOMETIME TO REPLY.
NOT ALL COMMENTS ARE LIKED AND ANSWERED, BUT A FEW WILL. THIS IS LIKE FIRST COME, FIRST SERVED.
