Social media has become a massive part of our lives, and it’s no secret that celebrities use it to connect with their fans. Some of the most common things we see on social media are pictures of celebrities looking their best. However, there is often a difference between how they look in these perfectly curated photos and how they appear in real life.
Whether we are born photogenic or not is a matter of luck that does not depend on our will. In any case, to get a good shot, it is sometimes necessary to make several attempts. This is how celebrities, even with all their glamour, appear underwhelming in some photographs if, for example, they are caught distracted or in the wrong light. It is not strange, therefore, that we see perfect images on celebrities’ social media. Still, then other shots of the same event taken by photographers are posted with quite different results.
When a celebrity publishes a pic showing their private life on social media, it’s often received with an overwhelming number of likes and comments. Think of Cristiano Ronaldo. In 2021, he posted a pic with his wife, Georgina, and he received 32.7 million likes. However, the digital world and its likes and comments do not appeal to all celebrities; on the contrary, some prefer to stay away from it.
We all share things that make us feel happy or that concern us on social media and the magic of it all is that, through those channels, we may be able to find people who’re actually interested in the same things. However, sometimes it may seem that we live in an alternate reality in which there are 2 versions of ourselves because we tend to “make up” situations without realizing it, as we express ourselves through this unique way that technology has offered us.
Social media has changed many aspects of our lives, and parenting is one of them. When we scroll our news feed and see gorgeous supermoms capable of doing a million things at once with smiling, well-behaved children around them, we may be trying to compare ourselves with those “perfect” moms, whether we realize it or not. We may respond with likes, but when we look at their ideal parenting timeline, deep inside us a feeling of failure may arise, bringing up the frustrating question, “Am I even a good mom?”
The internet has become part of the daily lives of many people, and that of course includes celebrities. Millions of fans follow their favorite artists on social media and give them a “like,” a comment, or share everything they do. However, there are celebrities who think that fans don’t really need to know every little thing that happens in their life, which is why they don’t go on social media. Of course, they did not make that decision on a whim, they have reasons that even help them lead a better life.
