2. You click an article about your favorite celebrity on the
computer. The article is about the celebrity taking marijuana
illegally. You are shocked and ashamed, but wonder if you
support the celebrity by illegally taking marijuana too. Celebrities
are famous because of their followers, or fans, that follow and
support their footsteps and ideas. If a celebrity is sponsoring this
make-up brand, then the fans will definitely buy the product.
Celebrities have to watch out for their actions because it affects
their status in the entertainment industry, or the paparazzi will
leak out the disturbing information.

3. Celebrities are actually a good way to promote products and
merchandise because they are more popular than common sponsors;
therefore more people would be aware of the sponsored product.
However, some actions the celebrities do will also influence youths in a
wrong way. For example, if a celebrity takes drugs, and a news article is
writes about it, their fans might think that it is correct to do such a thing
and do the same thing. Some celebrities are a good influence on
people, but we shouldn't follow every step they take in life because we
might end up destroying our lives as a result of it. There are three
celebrities—Lindsay Lohan, Miley Cyrus, and Britney Spears-- that are a
bad influence on the society because they took drugs, rebelled against
their parents, and took nude photos.

4. One example of an abominable celebrity is Lindsay
Lohan. She is an American actress, pop singer, and model.
On August 23, 2007, Lohan was pleaded guilty of consuming
cocaine and driving under the influence (Daily Mail). As a
result, she was sent to prison for a day of confinement.
Events like these can damage a celebrities' reputation
blunderingly. When bad events like this occur, the celebrity's
company bribes the author of the article to not leak the
news out. However, reporters still put the news in the open,
and fans are in shock. Some fans say statements like, "I don't
admire her anymore," or "She has to stop now!"

5. On the contrary, fans would agree with the star and consume drugs
as well, leading to car accidents, and major disturbing events.
There are a great number of people dying today because of drivers
who drive under the influence. The drunk drivers hurt themselves
and hurt the people around them, strangers or family members.
Ever since the failing of the two drug tests, she has been sent to
numerous amounts of court trials and jail threats. Society has
bashed on the actress many times, making her think about all the
things she has done to ruin her life.

6. Another example of a bad celebrity is Miley Cyrus. She is an
American singer and actress; she was born with the name Destiny
Hope Cyrus (Wikipedia). Cyrus has debuted at a young age with
Disney Channel. She has been with hem for the past five years and is
considered a young adult. After turning sixteen, she has been
rebelling against her parents and taking matters into her own hands.
One day, she leaked nude photos of herself online (TMZ). News
articles have said that the photo was for her boyfriend, Nick Jonas,
but no one knows the real truth why she took it. Ever since then, the
young idol has been pole dancing, revealing a great amount of skin,
and many more provocative and unmentionable actions.

7. In defiance of the drugs and obnoxious activities she has
revealed, she has helped Haiti when they were in a desperate
need of aid. She held an auction online, selling her
merchandise and other celebrity's merchandise (People
Magazine). The money collected would be bestowed to Haiti
to aid the victims of the colossal and devastating earthquake.
Since she works for Disney, a lot of young kids look up to her.
There could be one day where you see an eight year-old girl
strip dancing because of the bad influence that Miley Cyrus
has given.

8. In addition to the previous two examples, the third
example of a bad celebrity is Britney Spears. A lot of people
know her for her outstanding voice and body, but like Lindsay
Lohan, she has taken drugs and even gotten herself pregnant.
She is a singer, songwriter, dancer, actress, record producer,
author, fashion designer, video director (Wikipedia). She is
known for being the best performer yet, but only because of
showing off her voluptuous body. Like Miley Cyrus, most of
Britney Spear's music videos have shown her naked, or topless.

9. Of course, she has covered her woman parts, but being naked
and showing off skin is a very bad influence to teens and
younger kids; every Britney Spears music videos are allowed for
everyone to watch, therefore a young and innocent child could
be searching for a Mickey Mouse video, and then comes across
one of Britney Spears music video. The kid's mind would be
corrupted; the youth would follow in Britney's footsteps,
become pregnant at a young age, consume drugs, and reveal
body parts freely to everyone.

10. Despite all the despicable things that Lohan, Cyrus and Spears
have done, there are other celebrities out there that have done life
changing experiences. For example, Miley Cyrus has apologized for all her
bad behavior and has devoted her to a Christian. She has hopes that fans
will follow her footsteps in becoming a fully devoted Christian. Alan
Slater has walked from San Francisco to New York City for a capital
journey. A journalist of CB wrote about her rendezvous with him. He is
walking across the states to find information about cancer. The day that
the journalist met the determined man, he said that he was "almost
done" with his trip from San Francisco to New York City, even though he
has about another month to go. He walks about eight hours a day at
around 3 miles an hour, covering roughly 25 miles a day (CB).

11. Leo DiCaprio and George Clooney donated one million dollars
each for Haiti during the earthquake disaster (CB). The show
was opened for anyone who wanted to donate money to the
saviors of the earthquake that shook the whole province.
DiCaprio and Clooney's donation helped Haiti tremendously.
After seeing big celebrities showing love for the hurt ones, the
telethon gained lots and lots of money to help Haiti from the
great catastrophe.

12. Although many celebrities help out the nation, and other countries,
there are still other celebrities that influence our mind in a wrong way.
Celebrities now might influence the posterity and corrupt their minds.
Youthful kids could also be influenced by the actions the celebrities do.
Young kids might be already taking drugs, taking nude photos, and getting
pregnant at a young age. In reality, this is already happening. Teenage kids
are getting pregnant at a very young age, consuming drugs, and driving
under the influence. These are events that just happen, but we can avoid
these events by not following the actions of the stars. Not everything they
do is superior; they are not the king. In conclusion, celebrities are not a
good role model for generations now and posterity because from all the
celebrities' actions now, they have already corrupted our youthful minds.
