In an era where being famous seems to be everything, a lot of
people are now doing anything, and I mean anything to get their names
out there - doesn't matter if they have to go the immoral route.
With
social media sites such as Facebook, Twitter, Youtube, and Keek and
Instagram, our youths do not bother to work hard for fame and success
anymore. And who can blame them, when girls instantly trend just by
posting nude photos on Twitter and Instagram, they get worldwide
attention just by posting a Youtube or Keek video- it just seems like
the perfect answer for fame-obsessed young women.
Let's face it,
we can go on and on about how repugnant some of those acts are, but the
fact remains that they still pique our interests, we still talk about
them and give them what they are looking for - attention. Even well
known celebs trying to raise their profile have now resorted to posting
virtually nude photos, pictures with the doing drugs and the likes.
For instance, I am a huge twitter fans and ever so often, I come
across these "trending" young girls. Imagine my shock one day when I
found out that a classmate of my little sister (Still in JSS3) "trended"
for a whole day over a picture of her in just panties, taken in her
bedroom.
Being famous for the obscene seems to be a trend these
days and people who do virtually nothing are making loads of money just
by sitting on their asses so it is no wonder that it definitely is quite
the temptation.
There are now no boundaries, no limits and no
scruples. And one is left to wonder, where does this all lead to? What
will our children and children's children do for money? And where have
all our morals gone? What can be done to curb these seemingly unending
acts?
