Must suck to have Instagram and be famous!

So out of what seems like unbearable boredom, I've started going on more social media sites. I just opened an Instagram account and started using my twitter account that I pretty much haven't used since I opened it in '08. I start roaming around adding my favorite celebrities while trying to learn how to work the damn things and notice something annoying! When you are famous and really good looking, people just don't care what you have to say. Since I haven't been following to many people, there's one celeb in particular I'm referencing for these thoughts but of course I'm not gonna tell you who it is! I will say that he is good looking enough that if you saw him in person, I'm sure your IQs might drop about 50 points. But at the end of the day, he and every other celebrity are just people. Take Justin Beiber for example, I'm sure before he became famous girls weren't chasing him between classes and pouncing on him in the lunch room. 


I want to do an experiment where we take a random, average looking guy, start a Twitter for him, take a few spiffy pictures of him and show them to a bunch of girls. We'll tell them that he’s an up and coming actor or singer doesn’t matter. I bet within 5 days, he would be getting declarations of love and scarier things in the hundreds…fine maybe not that soon but could happen.


Tell me if this would bother you; you post a picture of.....a burger you are about to eat at a restaurant, just saying you're out with friends and then the next 30 replies  from fans are from girls talking about how much they love you. Sounds nice right? Reply after reply of fans proclaiming their undying love, oh the good life. But 
COME ON! It has to get old doesn't it?


Of course if you're famous, you will expect that reaction especially if you are an attractive, young male. It’s interesting how fan girls seem to throw themselves at celebrities. Why do they think the celeb. guy will sweep them off their feet if their screaming like a crazy person and crying about how perfect they will be together? Try that with a person at school or work, can you say "... not aloud with in 500ft of...." shouldn't work out to well. 


What would bother me most is having some off time to chill with the family dog and you decide to share this rare sweet moment by snapping a picture of your fluffy monster and post it to Instagram only to get a reply like this, "Why do you have a girlfriend? I love you so much! Why don't you reply to me?” Hmmm charming, you can't say no to that.


As someone famous, you must lose innocence about yourself. To always have tons of insane people who don't know you but say they are in love with you. It’s enough to make anyone cynical. I guess you just learn to ignore the crazies and only reply to the people you know or who seem nice. I mean you can't tell them to go suck an egg but they can't fault you if you are “too busy” to reply.
