Celebrity Behavior: Good gone Bad

            Why are people more interested in celebrities bad behavior than good behavior? It is

interesting that celebrities bad behavior gets more attention than news about politics and news

about what is going on with our country and government.  Celebrities bad behavior is covered

more in news stories than positive behavior because it is more exciting, people make money out

of it, and good behavior is expected.

            First, bad behavior is exciting because people like seeing famous people mess up and

make mistakes. When Lindsay Lohan breaks the law, all the attention is on her, but when she

helps a charity, no one seems to care about it. According to Mania Beyond Entertainment, " A

women claimed Lohan had stolen her clothing from her home while she was away ",even a little

action like this made all the attention go to Lohan (2007). Even though Lohan tried to clear her

name, people still bothered her on her actions.

            Secondly, the people who actually put up the bad behavior in magazines or news stories,

they are the ones who are making money out of it. When famous people make mistakes, and

TMZ puts it up for people to see, they are the ones making money for all the attention it gets. In

2011 TMZ stated, "Drew Barimore  caused a stir with her neighbors last night when her loud

Halloween party forced them to call the cops  and complain." This article made TMZ lots of

money.

            Finally, people tend to expect good behavior from famous people, so that is why

whenever they behave bad, it interest people a lot. Because people tend to expect good behavior

from famous people, whenever they behave bad, everybody wants to know about it. T.I is a very

famous and well-known artist so when "Rapper T.I was arrested in September 2010 during a

traffic stop in Los Angeles and was charged with felony drug possession" (OTRC 2010).

Because he was well--known, this spread rapidly around .

            The reasons that celebrities bad behavior is covered more is because it's exciting, it

makes people money and because good behavior is expected. It is exciting because people like

watching famous people mess up and make mistakes. The people who actually put up the bad

behavior for people to see, they are the ones making money. Because good behavior is expected,

when celebrities misbehave it interests people a lot.
