In these moments, there are a lot of people who his dream is to be a famous. The first impression that all the people have about the famous people are that they have a lot of money, but being a celebrity doesn’t have only positive points.
First of all, the best points that celebrities have is that they have a lot of money. Mainly, this is the point that does that all the people want to be a celebrity. Moreover, they have big houses, a lot of expensive things; they travel around the world without thinking with the money that it will cost.
Apart from the advantages they didn’t have private life. Always they have persons who are following them. Furthermore, the press invents things that aren’t real, for example, when a famous going out with a friend, the press always does suppositions, like: A new partner is here!, when the celebrities, the only thing that they are doing it’s meet with their friends.
In my opinion, I think that being a celebrity it’s bad, because if you can’t have private life, and be happy with your family without interruptions, it isn’t a good life. I prefer don’t have a lot of money and have more private life than celebrities.
