Task 12/13. Vera Murashova


Should Celebrities Be Allowed to Keep Their Lives Private?

Recently I have read an article written by a Justin Bieber’s fan(,) where she was complaining about him and his rude reaction on (prep) her friendly request to snap a selfie. This story made me think about celebrities and their rights. Are they allowed to keep their private lives without the invention of fans and media? Or their choice of profession implies a permanent attention? Let us weigh all the pros and cons and decide whether they are to have their private lives(,) or they must just deal with the “occupational hazard”.

On the first hand (WExp), speaking about the profession chosen by celebrities, we cannot deny the fact that being a “star” means being popular and under discussion. This is a huge business which makes a great deal of money. Further development necessary 

Then, being followed by the media is the best way for PR. For instance, Olga Buzova has become popular only with the help of the mass media and people who published photos with her. What can be concluded based on this example?

On the other hand, there are several examples when celebrities’ relationships suffered from the invention of the media. Let us remember Pamela Anderson and Rick Salomon, Pink and Carey Hart, Adam Levine and Behati Prinsloo, and a lot of others.

Moreover, several days ago a famous blogger Maryana Ro, after several months absence from the YouTube, has published a video were she explained to her fans that because of a permanent persecution of them, she stopped visiting public places and even had to visit a psychologist for about a year.

Finally, there are a lot of cases when celebrities were imprisoned because of accuses of their fans.

To sum up, I can probably say that the negative effects predominate. That is why I would never accept that fact that celebrities are not allowed to have their private lives. By the way, I suppose that  looking for mentally healthy stars is much more better then for mentally unstable ones.

A reflection note. Torgalo Elisaveta

                                                           A Reflection Note Our semester is coming to an end, and therefore I want to leave my impressions about the course of studying academic writing. Firstly, I really liked the format in which our classes were held. Since we live in the modern world, I think it is very important to be able to use and process information on the Internet, and this is exactly what some of our lessons were built on. Thanks to this, I learned to look for the information I need and work with anti plagiarism. Moreover, during this semester there was a lot of practice in writing essays of various types. Because of this, I learned how to structure information and express my thoughts correctly in writing. As for the topics themselves, I really liked the themes that we discussed. They are ver...

A for-and-against essay. Torgalo Eliaveta

                                                Are ebooks so popular and good nowadays?                                                             With the development of digital technology, many physical elements, such as pen and paper, are gradually being replaced by computers and smartphones. But is it really good? Since the creation of "electronic readers" more and more people are turning to the technological side of reading.    One major advantage of e-books is portability. With the recent development of e-book readers, you can take an endless amount of books with you on vacation or on the go. Another great advantage of e-books is that they are chea...
