Hello, it has been a while! Welcome back to my personal blog.
Since the title, doesn’t give any hints, you probably have mo idea what’s in store for this blog. Well here it is, I hope it doesn’t disappoint!
This week in class we had an intriguing topic for our discussion post: Who is my favorite influencer and why? It got me thinking. Who is a role model in my life? A figure that has shaped me into who I am today?
Well, one route you can take is thinking of celebrities who inspire you most. Have they gained your respect somehow? Do you appreciate their morals and values? Or even just their generosity based on how they choose to spend their money? I chose Jeffree Star in my discussion for all those reasons above. I just think he’s a very genuine person, and he’s unapologetically himself, despite all the criticism and hatred he faces for being gay and practically any other reason someone could find an excuse to bash him for. He is very kind with his money and helps out his fans in need. He goes above and beyond, even though he gets nothing in return.
Another celebrity who I think deserves recognition and praise is Pink. She is a strong, independent talented woman, and an amazing mom from the videos I’ve seen and speeches I’ve heard her give on TV. I actually just saw an article about her today, saying that her, and her son had both gotten the corona virus. This is her tweet “Two weeks ago my three-year old son, Jameson and I were showing symptoms of COVID-19. Fortunately, our primary care physician had access to tests and I tested positive.” They are recovered now. And what did Pink do in response when it was all over? She’s donating so much of her own fortune to help in many ways with this COVID-19 pandemic! “She announced that in order to support “health care professionals who are battling on the frontlines every day” she would be donating $500,000, around £407,497, to Temple University Emergency Fund in Philadelphia, as well as the same amount to the City of Los Angele’s Mayor’s Emergency COVID-19 Crisis Fund. P!nk revealed the money for the hospital fund was being donated in honor of her mother, Judy Moore, who worked there for 18 years.” What an inspiration. I admire her more and more all the time. I hope to see her in concert one day.
