The
popularity of today’s Celebrities - Movie Stars is not a
surprise. They are
the “actors, singers, musicians, painters, athletes, etc.”
who provide us the entertainment we crave.
This has been happening for thousands of years and today
is no exception. The
only difference is that today, we have technology to expand our
entertainment choices. We
aren’t subjected to opera or stage plays only, for example,
although these “older style” of entertainment continues to
pack seats.
There are now
video games and the Internet. There are talk and radio
shows, game shows, and late night shows.
There are
athletic events such as the NBA and the NFL in arenas that rival
the ancient ones. At least now, the losers of such events don’t get their
heads cut off, such as the fact-backed legend of the Mayan ball
games held in Chichen-Itza in the Yucatan Peninsula.
Still, however, in one weekend, the motion picture type
of entertainment remains strong in making millions.
