To what extent do pop stars
influence there fans
From my own personal opinion looking at the influence that pop stars have on me I did not feel like they do have a strong influence over any view opinions and ideas that I have , but from looking at the one direction documentary about there fans I found my self very surprised and from this my opinion has completely changed, stars have such a strong influence over there fans that it is rather scary, they are able to know everything about there stars from where they are to where there sleeping to what they just had for dinner things not even relevant to them they should be idolized because of what they do and the songs they sing but its no longer about just that the interest of there personal life and many other things . They have become more like stalkers than fans waiting round every Conner just to get a glimmer of the stars willing to do anything to get what they want, and although they may have not realised it the stars them self have created this .
One thing that was surprising for me is the fact that a one direction fan happily explained to us that she only got braces because Neil from one direction had them.
She doesn’t actually need them. the fact she just got them because he did is crazy considering the price to get them ranges from about £3000 pound this is proof of the influence the stars have if that was her friend with braces she would have no interest many people get bullied for them “brace face” but because a star has them makes them expectable this gives a clear example a star can change a hold and influence a persons view.
Stars have this strong influence over the idea of what is perfect or what is normal , how we should dress look weight our height how we should act they create this image of perfection.
what all young girls young boys what to be and look like or look for in people if you don’t look like what we see in magazines your not what we want to see , for example the one direction boys have created this image of them self’s that every girl loves as they have said its perfect this influences the idea of what all boys should be like, they have been given this image of perfection and not many people will match this idea creating problems with other relationships they are looking for what does not exist because of the influence and the ideas that the stars have created, like many of the girls in the documentary have said they have never had a boyfriend not that this is a problem but is it because the influence and idea of perfection that the one direction boys have created which they have in mind and that they are unable to find ?
The things they do are strongly influenced by there stars as they do things to gain acknowledgement posting things on twitter for them in the case of one direction some have said they have tweeted them more then 100 hundred times a day in order to just get noticed from that to getting tattoos to other extents that I found disturbing “i will kill my dog if you don’t follow me “
this shows the extend of the power and influence these stars have over there fans to do some thing that crazy for a star . not just what they do for them they day that they would do any thing that the star ask on girl tells us she would chop of her arm if one of them asked her two people can live with just one arm this shows the powerful view that these people have of the stars and the even more powerful influence that these stars have over there fans to make them be able to do these things and although these are quite eccentric and probably wouldn’t happen many just talk it still shows the influence they have for the thought of this to happen and the fact that they would be willing to do this
They claim the stars make there identity, I have seen that they are behind many things the stars do and it’s clear that there is a strong influence over them in order form them to take part in theses crazy activities .
