Some people feel that paparazzi should not follow celebrities and invade their privacy by taking pictures of them everywhere, while others believe this is just the price of fame. Discuss both sides and give your opinion. Give reasons for your answer, and include any relevant examples from your own knowledge or experience.

It is typical of today's world and norm to sell some level

privacy

for fame,

this

does not

however

mean that absolute publicity is required for celebrities. The paparazzi has thrown more light on

this

issue in that they invade the very depths of the private lives of celebrities. There are two schools of thought, one supports the invasive

behavior

manner of acting or controlling yourself

behaviour

, whereas the other sees

this

as a price for popularity. In

this

essay, I will discuss both views and my opinion. It should be noted that the fans and followers of celebrities assisted in accelerating them to stardom, from a rather lowly background. These people invested their time, money and other resources just to ensure that these stars are catered for.

Although

these

endeavors

a purposeful or industrious undertaking (especially one that requires effort or boldness)

endeavours

by the supporters slide past, mostly unknown to the celebrity, but

this

does not negate the fact that being a celebrity is a people factor and must be rewarded, in

this

case, with

privacy

been sacrificed on the altars of publicity. Notwithstanding the sacrifice required for fame, it should

also

be noted that these celebrities are humans and require some level of

privacy

in their personal lives. Not every aspect of one's life need to be on the screens.

For example

, a post made on Instagram and Facebook on the 22nd of January 2019 portrayed a popular singer having sex with her partner. These posts went viral and pushed the celebrity to the brink of suicide. My view remains that irrespective of the price to be paid for fame, one still deserves the time alone and

privacy

. There is a saying that goes

thus

: 'a stitch in time saves nine', let us save our celebrities from extra sources of anxiety over their private lives.

Although many people value their public parks, this space could be better used for other purposes such as residential areas for the ever growing population or to develop business and boost economies. To what extent do you agree or disagree with this?
While many people recognize the importance of having access to public parks, others argue that this space could better serve communities by developing housing or businesses there. Although it is undeniable that such properties would create jobs and boost the local economy, I would argue that the green space in cities serves an equally important purpose in local people’s lives and that neighborhood parks can be maintained while also being used to generate revenue for cities.
