Nowadays celebrities are more famous for their glamour and wealth than for their achievements, and this sets a bad example to young people. To what extent do you agree or disagree with this statement?

#celebrities #glamour #wealth #achievements #sets #people
It is true that most of the celebrities are known for their luxurious lifestyles than for their performance or talents these days.
Also
, many people think that
this
 kind of attitude is not a good example for the young generation. In the following essay, I will express my agreement and
also
 disagreement. On the one hand, it is a fact that many famous people become popular due to their fancy lifestyle,
instead
 of their outstanding achievement these days. Their acting talent might be standard or below the average, but they are making sensation to the public by showing their wealth and glamorous lifestyles.
For instance
, would be Kamal R Khan, whose luxurious mansion, party and views
on
Suggestion
with
 other celebrities are more famous than his acting. It is believed that the behaviour would be a negative influence for the young people as it teaches them about hedonistic lifestyle.
On the other hand
, there are people who have shown to the world that they have reached success due to strong determination and hard work. One of the famous Brazilian athlete once said – “Success is not accidental. It is hard work, perseverance, learning, sacrifice and love of what you are doing”.
For example
, would be the legendary Nawazzudin Sidique. His career from National School Drama to Bollywood will always be an inspiration for many struggling actors. These kinds of celebrities are worth to be followed by the young generation. In conclusion, I agree and
also
 disagree to a certain point. In my opinion, we should guide the youth in selecting the role model not just from the
reel
the basic unit of money in Brazil; equal to 100 centavos
real
 life but
also
 from the real life.
