Celebrities Behaving Badly

Celebrities behaving badly

Over the years, there have been a fair share of misbehaving celebrities. From Charlie Sheen, to Chris Brown, and to Justin Bieber. These a-list stars are almost more well known for their off-screen antics than they are for their actual performing abilities.  Their bad behavior has delighted tabloid writers and shocked fans. Clearly, the fame and money has gotten into the heads of these celebs, but why are fans still winning to put up with all of this. Despite their conspicuous behavior, these big name superstars still find ways to win the hearts of fan. 


I think a key reason why many of these fans still love these misbehaving celebs is because they feel a "deep" connection with these celebrities. Much like a husband and wife, if one of them commit a crime, the other will still likely stick around for support. An example of this unconditional love can be seen with Justin Bieber. As we may already know, Justin Bieber has established a "bad boy" rep after multiple instances of driving while intoxicated, yelling and being disrespectful to paparazzi and even egging his neighbor. His fans could be what is called "die-hard" fans as they stick with him through this time of change.

Moreover, not only do these celebrities get the support of their fans despite having a poor public image, but some even get away with crimes. Despite breaking laws, these famous people end up with no consequences. Sure, mega stars like Justin Bieber easily pull in hundreds of millions of dollars everyear like money is falling from the sky, but that should not be a reason why celebrities get away with everyday crimes. 

Just as our careers and social lives would be greatly affected if we broke the law, celebrities SHOULD also have the same consequences.  They have special treatment and don't get consequences for their actions. However, celebrity culture has undoubtedly elevated to the point where celebrities are able the law and their actions void of consequences.
