Young Celebs and Drugs

LET’S CONVERSE… Another story I have successfully found in the news. It’s the famous Soulja Boy. Soulja Boy started out making dance music for the young. He is now a success producer for a few celebrities. He has a few pop songs out, but this story isn’t so successful. Soulja Boy was arrested for gun and illegal drugs found in his SUV.

“The 21-year-old rapper and four other men were arrested in Temple, Ga., after cops pulled over their Escalade because one of the lights on the car was out” (Britney, 2011).

            Even though this successful artist was on his way on promoting his new movie the affects of illegal drugs was still in the mist. The question that has to be asked; what is the deal with young celebrity and dealing with illegal drugs? Does this outlook affect the children that look up to him? Will this make the children want to start illegal drugs or will this stop them from doing illegal drugs?

            Where are the parents of this young celebrity? I believe parents or guardians should be more involved in the industry now days. This may end many of the arrest and death that goes on in the industry. Maybe more of artist would have a more positive look to the children that do idolize them. My question to the parents with children in the industry; how do you feel with the outlook with the young adults are giving in the media today?

            Let’s come together and work on the outlooks that the young celebrities are putting in the media that are having affects on the people who are watching them in the news and reading them in magazines. We as a community can come together and change the affects of celebrities dealing with issues and are coming out in the media. Let’s get together and… LET’S CONVERSE!!!

Young Celebs Suffering From the Industry

LET’S CONVERSE… There have been deaths in the entertainment industry, which our young adults pay attention to everyday. The big death that has been roaming around in the entertainment news has been Amy Winehouse. 

            “The 27-year-old singer was caught on tape falling apart on stage in Belgrade. She took the stage an hour late in the Serbian capital, appeared to be wobbling around while she mostly spoke to the audience, and couldn't really sing along with her own songs” said Nina Mendall (Mendall, N 2011).

With her hit single “Rehab” this was not only just a hit single, but also the truth.  “Chip Somers, the head of a rehabilitation Centre, said he had been in regular contact with Mitch Winehouse before the 27-year-old singer was found dead in her north London home on Saturday afternoon”(Telegraph Media 2011).

These are the concerns that many people have for our younger children idolizing celebrities as such. Is this impression that we want our children of the future taking on? With helping children before this stage comes we should have a better result on non-positive images in the media. Yes there is a saying don’t fix it if it’s not broken, but if we can prevent it before it brakes wouldn’t that be a better outcome!

One thing I can say that I am not mad that the media is covering this sad incident. The younger generation needs to know the affects of drugs and alcohol. Not only does it show the young adults these affects, but also informing the older generation that our children need help and more guidance from people with wisdom and knowledge.

Coming together and informing everyone that this is a serious issue will help prevent future tragedies of young celebrities caught in the world of fame and pressure. This is not an industry that can be taken lightly. Let’s come together and…LET’S CONVERSE!!!!
