Look Who’s Changed

Entering the entertainment industry can be a life-changing experience. From a mere nobody, who could be anyone sitting on a park bench or walking along a hallway, to a celebrity, who has countless bodyguards and has become an icon, lives change. Usually, economic reasons are motivations for joining showbiz and pursuing a career. When a celebrity hits the big time, ironically, he/she is drawn away from the fans who have placed him/her there.

The limelight can bring out the worst in a celebrity as well. As image is a main concern, celebrities are dictated to behave a certain way during interviews and when interacting with media. Social media posts have become venues for endorsements and thus, celebrities cannot just rant or be eccentric in posts, as followers can increase the toxicity of posts.

While on break, the rest period is used by celebrities to recharge and do certain things as ordinary citizens. Some celebrities refuse to give in to fan requests for photos or even a smile when they are on break. They often give the excuse that it’s their private moment. Of course, fans are disappointed, but they really cannot do anything.

By contrast, followers of Male Celebrity (MC) are surprised at how he has changed while taking a break. Gone are the days when MC would give off the aura that he cannot be approached whenever he’s in a public place, like a mall. Without saying anything, his actions exude that fans should let him be. However, these days, when people recognize him and asks for a photo, MC obliges and he even smiles. Thus, people who knew of how he was sometime ago are surprised at this change in his social skills.

‘Why do you go away? So that you can come back. So that you can see the place you came from with new eyes and extra colors. And the people there see you differently, too. Coming back to where you started is not the same as never leaving.’ ― Terry Pratchett
