A Celebration of Celebrities' Outstanding Behavior

Britney Spears, Kanye West, and Chris Brown are all victims of the media’s inaccurate presentation that causes them to become misunderstood by the public and thought of as disturbed people who have issues. In actuality, these misunderstood celebrities are all trying their best to do positive things that will make their lives meaningful; nonetheless, their goals and attempts, in the hands of the media, leads to their victimization and a lack of consideration for all that they strive to accomplish. Their honorable actions should have them receiving honors, such as the coveted Nobel prize because of the examples they are to society. The future generations should follow their foot steps to achieve higher goals with outstanding intentions.

Chris Brown Hits Rihanna Because of Love Not Violence

When the news report published Chris Brown’s fight with Rihanna in Feb 2009, Brown was put in an extremely disadvantaged position in terms of his career and his fans’ perspective of him. Rihanna had bruises on her face and bite marks on her hands when police found her. Readers were disadvantaged as well, since they had at their disposal only the news reports of the incident, which biased readers immediately into assuming that Brown had inflicted these injuries on Rihanna by beating her up. According to Chris Brown’s best friend, this unfortunate incident was not the fault of Brown at all; in fact, he actually deserves heroic acclaim for saving Rihanna from a bug attack right in the front of his Lamborghini! It just so happen that the Lamborghini, rented that very day, released some mystical aroma that attracts bugs. The lender forgot to pepper spray the car and clear out the bugs. Chris and Rihanna, got into the car to go to the award ceremony when the bug attack occurred. The nasty little creatures climbed onto Rihanna’s causing her to panic and call 911. Seeing his love tortured by the bugs’ attack, Brown bravely volunteered to use his hands to killed bugs smothering his lovely Rihanna. Throughout the process, Chris Brown slapped Rihanna several times to ensure no bugs would escape. Toward the end, several other bugs climb onto Rihanna’s hand and bit her which caused her to become emotionally distraught as illustrated by her music video “Disturbia”. She fled the car and encountered police officers she had called. Without any explanation, Chris Brown was taken away and assumed to be an abuser, causing Rihanna’s wounds. Even though Chris Brown was innocent, the media have failed to report his true intentions and so the public has misunderstood Brown, which has caused great harm to his skyrocketing career. Chris Brown's Bravery as a hero to kill the villainous bugs truly touches my heart. If I had a boyfriend like Chris Brown, I would stay with him forever because I know he would only hit me in order to protect me. There are not a lot of gentlemen like him existing on this planet earth; sadly, they are becoming rare species. If only there were more real men like Chris Brown to watch over us.

Receiving the Holy Spirit Does Not Equal Tantrums

Kanye West, a renown hip hop artist is often portrayed by the media as having tantrum problems and being in need of some sort of anger management. His most famous loss of control happened in September 2007 during the MTV video music awards; West lost all five awards for which he was nominated, including video of the year and best male artist. The reports is show of disappointment in a negative way. What the press failed to report is that Kanye West is a sincere evangelical whose great love of the Holy Spirit is often times greatly misunderstood. In an exclusive video, West is seen becoming filled with the Holy Spirit, which overtakes him, especially in moments of great emotion (Exclusive Video). As the video clearly reveals his fists come from his feeling and power of the Spirit and West gives complete control of his body up to this Spirit. As seen in the video, the bleeps that can be heard block out his actual words of praise to the Holy Spirit. Looking closely, viewers can almost see his mouth form the words "Oh Lord Jesus!" At the beginning of the video, West says F*** MTV, or so the viewers are led to believe by the bleeps. What West is really saying is free MTV; he later on says tell MTV to listen to him, especially the words that come out of his mouth when he finds a connection with the Holy Spirit. Kanye in the video also keeps on saying he is trying hard and by this he means he is trying hard to connect with his holly Spirit, but because of the distractions of the cameras and the goings on of the awards program, he struggles keep consumed by the Spirit. Moreover, the man whom West continues to refer to, is Christ, who is guiding him every minute. Unfortunately, most of his Holy words are blocked by the recording crew who took advantage of the dark room and unclear footage. Instead of reporting the truth of Kanye's holy episodes, they twisted his words, attempting to get ratings by hiding the spiritual phrases coming out of Kanye's mouth. Obviously, the public should know that Kanye West's seeming tantrum phenomena is not the twisted scenario the media would have us believe. His tantrums do not come from anger and fury; rather, they come from his passion for Christ and his love for the Holy Spirit. Whenever he is distressed and down, he prays and fills himself up with the Holy Spirit that erases his pain. He may appear to be yelling in a fit of anger, but in reality, West is shouting out for the world to hear that he loves Jesus and is moved to show his love with the passion it deserves. This is precisely what gives West the energy he needs to continue with his music. Sadly, his sudden actions, which are not expected by people around him are described as him having bad temper and tantrums. On has only to look to West's music to see the proof of his love of religion. His “Jesus Walks” was a hip hop song about Jesus released in May 25, 2004. Here again, the media, much to Wests dismay, only focused on the songs with sex, drugs, and violence; they do not highlight his songs that are about religion and Jesus. His songs and his action sets up a good role model for all the current and future artists whose songs always filled with inappropriate lyrics. Even with this evidence staring them in the face, because of West's criticism of the media, they have decided to seek revenge on him. They criticize West’s claims and actions and place him in a unfavorable light in front of the public. The public since then has been misunderstanding Kanye West and viewing his tantrum as his personality problems. They forget about West’s devotion toward his religion. He and Britney both face similar injustices in which both celebrities are serious about their religion, but the public, not being accurately informed by the media believe the ravings about them being horrible people with disturbing problems. Both celebrities are clearly being victimized by the media.

There Is No Law Against Shaving !!

One of America's darlings, Britney Spears, has, in recent years, become the subject of derision and sometimes even hatred. She is constantly hounded by the media, with never a moment's peace. Through no fault of her own this celebrity is so misunderstood and maligned by those who want to bring her down! Due to recent stress from media scrutiny, the public’s high expectation, and her personal struggle with balancing her life, Britney Spears has tried different ways to relive her own personal tension and burden. When asked about her situation being chased by the paparazzi, most of the time, she states, “I see a bunch of photographers and I am scared and I want to get out of the situation.” After being injured by several outrageous news reports and critiques that were published in magazines and television, Britney is currently seeking ways to recover herself. On Jan 15, 2006, she visited Malibu Hindu Temple along with her son, Sean Preston. After upon the visit, she found her interest to pursue religion in order settle her emotional distress. In anticipation of entering a monastery, where she would engage in elevated spirituality, Britney will need her beautiful blonde locks from her head. Those close to her said it was a decision that truly come from her heart. On February 17, 2007 she entered a tattoo parlor in Sherman Oaks, California. According to close sources, the hairdresser refused the request, and so Britney grabbed the shaver and shaved it on her own. When the tailgating paparazzi saw Britney’s action without knowing the truth, they interpreted what they saw as Britney going wild. The “wild” ones are, rather than the innocent Britney Spears, the raving paparazzi for whom truth is unimportant. They hunt the innocent Britney down like predators lurking in the shadow and catch their prey with speed and surprises. Britney is one of the many today trying to set a good example by finding an elevated way to release stress and to develop spirituality at the same time. Sadly, her noble goal has been distorted, once again by paparazzi that discard truth and devalue the profession of journalism. Because of the media’s cruel publication of untrue Britney gossip and rumors, many monasteries located in China, Taiwan, Africa, Mexico, and America rejected Britney for the fear of crowds all over the world descending upon their peaceful and quite grounds. When asked about her feelings toward the media’s wrong interpretation of her innocence, she responded, “It’s sad how people… how cruel our world can be”. Whenever I hear Britney’s cry for public attention and her quotes, I feel so hurt and need to speak out for her. I mean, come on, is there a rule against shaving ? What is so wrong about shaving? People like monks and emo people do it all the time. Britney is serious about pursuing her religion; however, no one seems to understand. According to the U.S Constitution Amendment 1, people have the right for freedom of religion and expression. Britney is also a Homo Sapiens so why can’t she express herself? If only she can be left alone to seek her goals, she will be so happy. In the words of one recent fan, "why can't people leave Britney alone?" She is a wonderful role model for all seeking to enlighten themselves and find a sure-fired way to reduce stress.

Celebrity Justification

Looking at the MTV News a couple days ago which hosted a show with snobby and annoying Perez Hilton poking fun of celebrities, I could feel a flood of tears rolling down my eyes which fortunately blocked my eye sight, so as not to have to look at the ugly Perez anymore. I cannot believe that there are mean people like him still existing on earth. I mean seriously, people like him need to mind their own business and to get a life such; they should try partying all night with alcohol and drugs or attend rehabilitation center for fun. They should know that celebrities are humans too and like to be left alone and not to be criticized and misunderstood by the public. Media, gossipers and paparazzi always put celebrities in an unfavorable spot light by equating their good intentions with something horrible like the earth is about to end by unfriendly aliens. Can you imagine how hard it is to be a celebrity? For example, if a celebrity dares to enter a McDonalds alone, they often find themselves in the midst of a chaotic mob of screaming fans, chasing them down begging for autographs, and paparazzi behaving like unseemly stalkers come out of their disguises in the corner of public places, aggressively hounding them. At the same time, these celebrities have to witness their favorite fans being pushed and falling to the ground, fainting with excitement due to a lack of fresh oxygen supply. As if that isn't enough, they are often subjected to the blaring of ambulances rushing to the aid of the fallen fans- and finally, the bleak and empty parking lot of McDonald's that is left empty. This situation breaks their hearts: they are not even able to enjoy the high quality of a delicious hamburger at McDonald's when they see their lovely supporters becoming injured by the crazy crowds pouring into the store, and paparazzi camras’ flashes disturbing their eye site so that they can't even clearly see what they are eating. If I were them, I wouldn’t be able to eat since I dislike people staring at me eating my delicious meal. This would cause me to experience starvation and anorexia, which may cause me to become the headline for one of those skinny and sexy looking celebrities that make the front page of People and US Weekly magazine. With all those being said, celebrities lose their privacy and their personal lives because they are constantly examined by the public. Because of this, rumors and gossip with unwanted exaggerations fly like an infectious disease, from reporter to reporter. Celebrities’ good intentions become misunderstood by the media; irksome reporters and writers such as Perez interpret celebrities' actions as something offensive and abhorrent. I feel outraged and saddened for those fragile Hollywood celebrities; the public does not know that these unsung heroes are actually on the path of higher consciousness as exhibited by their recent actions. Many people who glorify their idols have became brainwashed by their magazine bible and often forget that celebrities are also human beings. As evidenced today, these celebrities have goals of benevolence rarely seen in the everyday people. I am here to end their rumors by speaking out for celebrities who are not able to because they are too busy to invest their money on their trillion dollars mansions and $10,000 dollar Gucci bags.
