Should celebrity’s private lives be made public by magazine and newspaper?
Pros:
- Gossip magazines profit by revealing news which may attract more people to buy them.
- Celebrities, too, make additional profits as a result of the media’s interest. Since both newspapers and magazines are common reading materials, hence a large number of readers may come to know about this piece of news. As such, celebrities can make use of this chance to win popularity and become famous. Articles or reports about them may also attract more to buy DVDs or tickets from these celebrities.
Cons:
- Celebrities may be affected by the paparazzi after having their private lives being revealed to public. These paparazzi who constantly disturb them while working or even, after working hours may cause celebrities to feel stressed out after an exhausting day of work. Furthermore, they may affect the celebrities’ performance during work if they were to make a huge commotion and to surround the celebrity with flashing cameras. It may not be just disturbing for the artist, but also annoying for their family and friends whom are likely to be affected as well.
- Moreover, some celebrities may not want their private lives to be revealed and let known to the public. Hence this may result in a lot of frustrations in them. For example, when a particular celebrity is getting divorced or faces other difficulties, he or she might want to keep it in an low profile and might find it upsetting if the whole world can read about this in magazine and newspapers.
- Furthermore, if celebrity’s private lives were to be made public, it may result in a stir amongst the public, especially if the news are rumors which might not necessarily be true. Thus, the celebrity’s reputation may be ruined.
- Everyone, regardless of whatever job they hold, have the right to have their own private live. This allows people to develop relationships and express themselves freely without the whole world knowing. Celebrities, too, deserves a good rest after work. Hence, it is also important to ensure that celebrities have a comfortable and quiet environment to rest in after an exhausting day of work.
