Times Change and People Do Too.

We all change, whether it be for better or for worst.  Since we change everything around us has to change and what does not adapt is often left behind.  While some change is good, other change can be bad.  Society has changed before when celebrities acted up they would be punished, whether it cost them their show or their fans.  Now, if they act up they all most get praised for it.  Had Chris Brown or Lindsey Lohan done what have done their careers would have been over.  Way back when, stars would leave the money and go fight for their country to show their fans that they were just like them.
Jimmy Stewart was to old for the draft, so he gained weight (because he was to underweight) and enlisted.  He would put of fights when military would not put him in battle, and eventually they put him in battle.  When he signed up he did not know if when he came back he would still be able to act, yet he gave up the money for the greater good. So did a lot of other stars back them.  What happened?  Now we have had presidents who have skipped out on the draft or had their daddy pay for them to not actually get in the middle of the action.  We have star who are rude and careless, yet they are praised.  Their fan base grows with ever fight or neurotic thing that they say.
At the same time, we still have some stars who actually care about other and do try to do good.  We have star who do thing for selfless reason and yet they get less press about what good they did.  It is a sad time when we have become so desensitized to what good could be done in this large world.  In a world where kids are getting bullied at school and the schools are not doing anything about it, and the military is almost worst than the fashion world about weightloss, how can we see what good is still being done out there?
I am not saying that I do not ever watch a reality star fight, but I also look to see what good some star are still doing out there.  Some stars I will stop watch due to the selfishness and ridiculousness.  We have the power to change this.  If we do not want to see this anymore than we could stop watching, or we could not elect the officials.  No one is perfect I understand; however some have gone over the top.
What is the saddest part that no one understands is that most of these celebrities choose this as their career, yet when they throw a fit or get thrown in jail we excused them.  If a teacher or any adult who is suppose to be a role model to kids, had done what Micheal Vick, Ben Roethlisberger, Brett Favre, Chris Brown, or Miley Cyrus they would have been fired and not aloud to work in that industry again.  People always say, "Well they did not choose to be a role model."  Many do not choose many aspects of their job that they do not like, yet they still have to deal with it or they will lose their job.  A nurse does not get to choose to not deal with the over night shift, but cuts are made and they were told if they did not take it then they could loose their job and they could not afford that.  Everyone in the I.T. industry does not choose to always be on call 24/7; however, they are now stuck be on call 24/7.  So, how it not the same for the celebrities?  Why do they get a free pass when the common man has to struggle with aspects of their jobs that they hate?
I have no answers to all the questions I asked, but what I do know is that we are the fans.  We are the consumers and we are letting this happen.  Kids are growing up with bad role model, society as a whole is being desensitized, and we are letting all this happen.  We choose this.  Just think about the next you watch your favorite celebrity doing wrong.
