Do you want to know what makes me ill?
Sorry, one of the MANY things that makes me ill?
When people see a celebrity doing/wearing/carrying/drinking something, and they all run out and do/wear/carry/drink the same thing.
I guess if you are 14 it makes sense, everybody does that at 14. But if you are an adult and you rely on these spoiled, out of touch people to tell you what is cool then how are you ever going to contribute your own style, thoughts, and uniqueosity to this world?

Isn't it amazing how over the last twenty years western society has formed it's idea of "normal" based on what they see on TV?
It's sad really. Very, very sad.
i have no sense of what is 'cool' to wear and what isn't. all i know is that most of the time when i see pictures of celebrities and they're not dressed up for events, whatever they are wearing is usually not very cute.
I'm constantly mystified at the concept of "celebrity." Noam Chomsky is a hella-smart guy and deserves recognition, and Paris Hilton gets rich(er).
And I bet more people dress like Paris than dress like Noam.
Conclusion: people are idiots.
Seeing a celebrity doing/wearing/etc something can be a reason to identify with it but you know what doing that something for only that reason alone is lame.
If you like something a celebrity wears and deciding that's something you like and want to do is one thing, but to do it just because they are is dumb and sad.
Choose your own style, do your own thing, be yourself.
Hang on... I gotta go look "uniqueosity"... You just gotta use them big words that I don't know!
:D
M~
I agree!
Because you're a celebrity and if you said it I want to copy it.
Oh wait, maybe I'm missing the point....
Parlé comme un ange.
I've become quite convinced that the vast majority of people in the West are simply told what to do and what to want by the TV. And they never think to question the aspirations their electric god has for them.
Does it count if the celebrity I emulate is Dave Barry? He's famous, and all.
okay
so what are you wearing right now?
just wondering and wandering
we are all so lost
those of the more vulnerable sect seem to want to emulate those who appear to be more in sync with life
i dunno
i am a celebrity on the hoe stroll in SF and in rehab
groupies are a bitch
I went through a stage where I wanted to be like Ryan Adams.
He gets girls, you know?
Damn, I was planning on asking you what your favourite fast food was because I was going out for lunch today and needed some ideas . . . but, nevermind. I'll browse the net to see what some other celebrities are eating. . .
I hate all stupid sheep-herding fashion trends but the only consolation I take from it is that by the time everyone's wearing the same thing, that trend supposedly is over.
But of course everyone who bought those bloddy fur-type boots with balls hanging off them will still be wearing them next year. A million hosers can't be wrong, right?
Ok, so DON'T copy you?
But it's okay to do it if I have the maturity of a 14 year old, right?
I agree with you but you have to admit: it's hella fun laughing at the idiots who do that.
BAAAAA! BAAA!!!!
the so-called adults who do that cannot really be called adults now can they! ;-)
oh damn. I've been outed by the Binsk. anybody want a tea cup chihuahua?
And they get it all for free. The only people who could actually afford $1,300 handbags just receive them as gifts. I want one, so I can sell it, and pay my rent and a bunch of credit card bills. Hi, Fendi? Prada? Tod's? Luella? Stella Freakin McCartney I'm Famous Cause of my Dad?
Bag donations happily accepted here. No Uggs though. I'll take some of those cute heels that cost $800, though. For sitting on the couch and watching Deadwood on DVD.
Being a guy, I never paid attention to what people were wearing in the first place, just tried to figure out what they looked like underneath it!!!
I meant the girls.
Ah nevermind.
LA makes Toronto look like paradise in that sense.
if i see another ugg-wearing mist-on tan silicone-enhanced idiot i'm gonna self combust, but i won't since that's like, so 2004, right. ;)
The thing that makes me ill is the loose pants showing underwear thing. Guys... this trend is DEAD. Lemme spell that for you. Dee Eee Aye Dee. DEAD. Get your flat ass to the store and buy some pants that freakin' fit.
Haha .. was there anything that made you say this?
I don't try to emulate celebrities. I try to emulate you. I've worked hard to pump my chest up, but somehow it just isn't coming along. How do you do it?
