WE'RE obssessed with celebritieS but why?

We don't know them personally but somehow some people feel closer to a celebrity more than they do with their loved ones who they grew up with and know personally. To me most celebrities are actresses and actors on and off screen they're just acting in every which was possible so there's no try way of knowing whether or not they're being authentic so there's no true way of you knowing is the person you believe that celebrity is on camera really the person you like. Why are we obsessed with celebrities when we don't know next to nothing about them. They're just images that their agents and or managers feel we can relate to and feel will be able to sell. I feel that very few celebrities are who we think they are once the cameras go off. I know there are plenty of racist celebrities who keep their opinions behind closed doors. Their objective is to stay relevant no matter the cost. The only thing most of them truly care about is making money and portraying a likable or bad boy image will help them get the fame and fortune they crave so they'll put on that act on and off camera to get you to like them/ Why are we obsessed with celebrities? Are they really as interesting and different as well all think they are? Is living a life in the public spotlight where you freedom is stripped away from you really the ideal life. Sure money is not an issue and you can take what seems like endless vacations but is it really the ideal life that makes so many of us more interested in celebrities. This lifestyle isn't typical nor is it normal but why does that make us crave this sort of lifestyle so much? I can't answer that question but you can if you are in love with celebrities are a particular one. I've met much prettier and seemingly normal down to earth women than the ones I've seen from a distance in hollywood. They're not better than the quote unquote normal non celebrity girls. I would prefer a girl who isn't in the spotlight so our business isn't the world's business however some people enjoy that which is why so many shows even news shows are geared towards having shows based solely on celebrities and their problems. Our problems are much bigger than some celebrity who wore mismatching shoes. Are we really obsessed with celebrities? But why? I can't answer that question but most of us needs to get a life and stop worrying about those who will never worry about us.
