| The celebritie names that have taken the news world to a new level are as varied as they are famous. Britney and Jamy Lynn Spears, Lindsay Lohan, Paris Hilton, Anna Nicole Smith, Tom Cruise, and Michael Jackson are just a few examples of the many celebrities that peak the interest of consumers and fans worldwide. They have graced magazine covers, headlined news programs, and have been ranked as some of the top internet searches in the world. People just love to watch and learn of celebritie lifestyles. The world is simply full of fans and other individuals who just love to watch the triumphs as well as the trainwrecks. The trainwrecks are, of course, what keeps most readers coming back. Whether it's celebritie plastic surgery, celebritie addictions, failed marriages, or criminal charges, the downfall of a famous person seems to be the biggest draw. Once again, the rules of supply and demand come into play. If the consumers were not lining up to buy into the celebritie news, we wouldn't see nearly as much. |

At the time of President Gerald Ford's death, Anna Nicole Smith actually garnered more headlines as well as more tv time and more internet searches. This is a fact that can be disturbing to some, but is a reflection of our society and its absolute fascination with these celebrities. A substantial portion of hungry celebritie news hunters are our children and teens, but the real consumer is the adult citizen over the age of 18. The adult age group is the main consumer targeted by celebritie news programs, websites, and publications. |
I think we will see the celebritie news trend continue to grow in popularity as it has for decades now. As the media will continue to find new ways to infiltrate their lives and broadcast them for all of us to see. The photographs, the gossip, the inside stories, and the interviews will continue to fill our tv screens, our computer monitors, and our supermarket aisles for years to come.
