Unkind Act of the Loveteam

The choice of fame to pursue a career will always have its rewards in terms of financial gain, and ideally, a higher self-worth. However, this choice leads to the drawback of the loss of privacy. Fans, the press, and the curious often hound entertainers, politicians, athletes, and even everyday heroes for a glimpse, a handshake, a kiss, or a photo. While some celebrities have accepted that mingling with fans is part of the job, others have forgotten that fame has its responsibilities, and have forgotten that they have traded their privacy for public ownership.

A reel love team was seen in a famous resort, which is easily accessible to the public who can afford their rates and membership. The two were taking a breather and were, perhaps, celebrating the surprising success of their partnership. Some visitors asked if they could have a photo with the love team. The actor and the actress declined and said they were on “vacation.” Even if the visitors requested for just one photo with the pair, the reel couple still refused. One of these visitors was a child. The child must have really loved the duo, but this request was turned down as well. The child was already crying in trying to convince the pair, but they still said “No!” The poor child had no choice but to step away. The staff even got annoyed at the arrogance of the two.

Though apparently well loved by their fans, the actor and the actress have not spared the public from showing off their negative side. In several instances, the actor could not contain himself, and had the gall to disrespect even colleagues from his own network even if he was on national television. Meanwhile, the actress has been touted to have a sweet image, but still some skeletons in her closet, especially about her treatment of her family, has raised skepticism if she is really as kind as her public image.

Has success gone into the heads of this reel couple this early? Have they forgotten that the fans have made it possible for them to acquire fame and wealth? The strangers who had asked for photos could have been these fans. Thus, instead of gaining more admirers, the reel couple succeeded in turning off these people. Perhaps, the reel couple should think of which they prefer: to have no one approach them anymore or to have fans occasionally asking for a photo or two?
