Celebrity is the one who can attract peoples to follow them and make peoples believe in their words and support them in mentally or physically. Other than that, celebrity also makes a brand new cultures or trend that everyone would like to follow.
How celebrity affected people
For example, for those who used to admire Dato Lee Chong Wei, they will like to play badminton during their free time or even watch his matches. For now, its FIFA World cup, for those who like to watch football matches, they will like to watch football match to support their own favourite team or football player that they used to admire no matter how busy they are. Sometimes, people likes to use celebrity to bet or gamble on, because they believe their idol can do it well.
For celebrity in Malaysia, i realized that it started turning a little politician when it comes to general elections.For example, Michelle Yeoh counted as the most inspiring women in Malaysia, she had been get attention by most of the social media when election last year because she appeared at an election rally in support our current prime minister Najib. She said that Malaysia is a democratic country and everyone are free to voice out.
From this, i can says that there is also some of others election team that might not so support, because it might affected their own supporters. As Michelle Yeoh is a famous celebrity, she will have many fans, and maybe her fans will follow her decision. But then, still, everyone is free to make their own decision. Sometimes, celebrity will be hard to voice out their own opinion too as everyone take their words very important and after that their words or decision will be spread out all around the world. And sometimes, people will make the situation even worst when they dont like the particular celebrity, they will make that celebrity as a joke.
