THE PAIN OF A CELEBRITY
“We (celebs) are the true definition for suffering and smiling.”
As I sat down in one of my family friend’s house to relax myself from the stressful day I have been having in preparation for my coming concert. I ponder on so many things and one of it brought about this article “THE PAIN OF A CELEBRITY”.
Have you ever for once sat down and ever thought of this “do celebrities go through pains in life?
Well here is the answer for you: yes we do! Am writing from my diary of wealth experience. Celebrities suffers a lot and yet they keep it in and smile all day so that you can stay strong ““We are the true definition for suffering and smiling”
First of all, WHO IS A CELEBRITY?
A famous person, especially in entertainment or sport. Famous person, very important personality, someone with a big name, a superstar, a leading light, a guru , mega star, public figure, pillar of the society and so on. Continue after the cut….
THINGS CELEBRITIES SUFFER OR GO THROUGH THAT YOU MIGHT NOT KNOW.
-
FINANCIAL BREAKDOWN: Because someone is a celebrity doesn’t mean they don’t or can’t go though financial break down. We all can and the fact that we don’t show it doesn’t mean we don’t experience it. We are just trying to live up to that name you have tagged us with “CELEB”.
-
EMOTIONAL TRAUMA {Especially in Relationship}: He or she is a celeb; he or she has ladies or guys floating around him or her. Yes it’s true, but do you know every celeb’s desire is to have a proverb 31 wife and we strive so hard to find true love, because once you are a celeb it’s very difficult to know who loves you for you or for your fame and money.
-
DENIAL OF REAL LIFE: As a celeb there are so many thing we want to do that we can’t just do anymore. We are denied of our real life….
-
TRUST: People find it difficult to believe us when we tell them what we are going through. For instance, a celeb cannot come to you for help (that he or she is broke), you will never believe them. Will you believe a celeb that said he or she is single and searching, or has not eaten since morning coz there is no money to stock the house? Will you believe? Of course you won’t, because most people are doubting Thomas.
-
DEPRESSION: A lot of people think celebrities have the perfect life and nothing is wrong with them. Well you’re completely mistaken because most celebs like to keep their matters private. A lot of us go through depression most times.
To cut this story short and draw my conclusion, I want to tell you that being a celebrity doesn’t mean we don’t have problems at all. We do a lot of suffering and smiling.
We go through a lot as celebs, but we only refuse to let it show because we know most people see us as mentor, role model and idol, and we can’t afford to let people down. So, most times we pretend as if nothing is wrong with us so that people can strive to become great like us.
For example if as a role model all I do all day is to lament about what I go through daily and never for once show courage and spirit of leadership, won’t you be discouraged from the pursuit of your dreams?
Hmmm! With these few points of mine, I hope I have been able to pass a point or two to someone reading these article about the pains celebrities go through pains. We (celebrities) need prayers to stay strong.
Kudos to all my Naija celeb that stood strong and never gave up and made me who I am today….
