Celebrities and Tabloids: The Ugly Side of Show Business

People in the limelight may lead glamorous lives that ordinary men and women can only fantasize about, but they pay for their fame with the loss of their privacy.

Celebrities are hounded by paparazzis and tabloid reporters who chronicle even the most personal aspects of their lives and display these often embarrassing or humiliating secrets for the whole world to see. They are crucified by critics, who lash out at celebrities’ behaviour, wardrobe, acting skills, etc. Their jewellery are gaped at and their accessories imitated or emulated.
