Have you ever had a celebrity obsession as an adult. If you say no I don't think that you are being honest,lol. I think we all do this but nobody wants to be honest about it. The truth is, I have had two! Both obsessions have had a great affect on me. Questioning the mystery of it all started me writing a book. So is it a bad thing? I think not. Sometimes on the way to a dream you get lost and find a better one!
Ok so I clearly posted this before and it didn't go thorugh so I am going to type it again.
ReplyDeleteIf I am being honest here...I have recently had crushes on some reality tv stars/celebrities. Now back in my younger years I did have crushes on celebrities but more recently is these reality tv personalities. I think the reason that I am attracted to them is because they are everything that my life is not. They are the bad boys who life exciting lives all of which my life as a working mom and teacher is not. I think in those early mornings and middle of the night feedings it was nice to think about something other than nursing a baby and changing diapers and that is why these individuals have applealed to me more in recent years than an actor or muscian.
I definately agree with you on the reality of life and being a mom. Sometimes I think that we need to escape the everyday craziness and sometimes getting lost in these fantasies is an outlet and its actually a healthy one. There is nothing wrong with having celebrity crushes as an adult. Although many are embarrassed by it, it is completely normal and we all do it.
