Although being famous might sound like a dream come true, today's stars,feeling like zoo animals,face pressures that few of us can imagine. They are at the center of much of the world's attention. Paparazzi(狗仔队) camp outside their homes, cameras ready. Tabloids (小报) publish
thrilling stories about their personal lives. Just imagine not being able to do anything without being photographed or interrupted for a signature!
According to psychologist Christina Villarreal, celebrities—famous people-worry constantly about their public appearance. Eventually,they start to lose track of who they really are, seeing themselves the way their fans imagine them, not as the people they were
before everyone knew their names. “Over time,” Villarreal says,
“they feel separated and alone.”
The phenomenon of tracking celebrities has been around for ages. In the 4th century B. C.,
painters followed Alexander the Great into battle, hoping to picture his victories for his admirers. When Charles Dickens visited America in the 19th century, his soldout readings
attracted
thousands
of fans,
leading
him
to
complain (抱怨) about his lack of privacy. Tabloids of the 1920s and 1930s ran articles about filmstars in much the same way that modern tabloids and websites do.
