Celebrity News and Gossip: a Glimpse Into the Public?s Fascination
It’s no secret: the world is drawn in by the private lives of celebrities, and everywhere we look there are celebrity gossip magazines, websites dedicated to shedding light on celebrities’ private lives, and television shows focusing on everything from gossip and celebrity reality shows, to programmes about the houses that celebrities live in.
What’s more, the public constantly craves this sort of information, fuelling the paparazzi and the media to continuously work towards uncovering the latest stores snapping the most talk-worthy pictures.
But one important question remains: just why is the public so obsessed with celebrities? Why is celebrity news in such great demand? And what do people feel they get out of it? The answer is multi-faceted.
To begin, celebrities are in the limelight in an entertainment sense – whether in movies, TV shows, the modelling world, or any other facet of the industry. Because they are seemingly a part of people’s lives to begin with, many individuals often feel some sort of entitlement to celebrity news. Thus, individuals actively search for celebrity news; and when they find it, they often want more.
Another theory is that the lives of celebrities somehow compensate for things we don’t have in our own lives. Celebrities are rich and famous, they own the latest material products, and they’re often in relationships with other well-known celebrities. For an average, middle class person, such qualities are often alluring – simply because they offer a glimpse into the type of lifestyle that might be out of reach. Thus, following the lives of celebrities is, in a way, like living vicariously through them.
Some, however, believe that the reason we follow celebrities’ lives so closely is because we’re waiting for them to fail. The reasoning behind this theory is that when celebrities tumble in some facet of their lives – whether in their relationships, careers, financially or legally – they seem more human.
And finally, another reason the public goes after celebrity news is because it’s so easily accessible. Many people like to hear “the dirt” on others, and generally enjoy a bit of gossip. When the gossip is so readily accessible through magazines, gossip websites and a range of television shows found in various TV packages, the public is quick to go after such “news”.
And when the news has to do with celebrities whose names are well known in the entertainment world, the gossip is even more attractive.

Twitter.com – FOLLOW US! If you’re a Miley fan, you better listen up! Cyrus needs your support. Get the details right now! Poor Miley. In a recent poll, the Disney superstar got named something pretty darn bad and we’re looking for people to defend her. Hey guys, I’m Dana Ward at the Clevver TV headquarters and we just received word that Miley got voted as – take a deep breath – 2009′s worst celeb influence. That’s right, it’s probably not a win that the singing-actress is proud to earn – nor is it anything like her impressive number-1 song downloads, sold-out concerts and crazy-popular Hannah Montana merchandising. But the AOL poll asked readers ages 9 to 15 years old and they chose Miley as the worst Hollywood influence. So it wasn’t even adults or parents who picked! We’re wondering WHY there are so many haters out there… not just the obvious grouping of the media, but what about fellow kids and teens? I mean, Miley is actually setting records with all of her careers accomplishments, and hey, she’s a teenager and bound to make a mistake or two, so why is everyone hating? Do you guys think that maybe some people are “closet fans” who actually like MC but choose to hate simply because they’re too cool for school? So the main happenings with Cyrus that were likely the reason she received so many votes for worst influence of 2009 are likely her suggestive Vanity Fair covershoot, the “stripper pole” performance for the Teen Choice Awards and her “slanty eyes” photos with … Video Rating: 4 / 5

To become a celebrity means to become public. A celebrity looses the privacy of the personal life because the public have interest on the celebrity’s life no matter the size of the issue. This is the prize of fame of most celebrities.
When an announcement is made public on the situation of a celebrity in any point in time in his life, a thin line separates the announcement as news from being a gossip.
In general, news is a statement or information on any developments involving issues, activities and personalities in a certain period of time. News may be communicated through the radio, the daily newspapers, television, or simply through daily conversation.
Well, gossips about celebrities are also communicated using the same media. Recent years with the development of networking through the internet, gossips have gained more grounds on the net and simple daily conversations than any other form of media. Most of the gossips revolve on specific issues of celebrity personalities.
News, on the contrary, does not dwell on a specific issue on one person alone, but covers anything and everything from current developments in business, government affairs, global warming, arts, science and technology.
Gossip and news may be differentiated particularly on the information they intend to communicate. News are present on a simple report with supporting materials to support the facts, while gossip does not provide any proof, but more of conjectures.
Clearly, gossips are based on unconfirmed information from what people say or have said about celebrities.
With uncensored and unplanned pictures and videos taken of celebrities and presented to the public as it developed, paparazzi bring the gossips on celebrities to a brand new level.
Often, a story that a picture exists and that this picture is being distributed on the net for everyone to see spreads like wildfire during hot summer days. As the picture gets viewed by more people, the discussion on the same topic grows and changes into a scandalous gossip.
