Some young people like to copy the behaviour and clothes of famous people today. Why might this be the case? What problems can it cause?

It is true that we live in a world today where the lives of famous

people

are covered through social media, and some believe that children are trying to imitate them. In

this

essay, I will discuss the

reasons

why

this

is happening and the potential issues that can follow. One of the many

reasons

why young

people

in general and teenagers,

in particular

, tend to follow the steps of well-known individuals is because they are constantly bombarded with pictures of celebrities and

this

is

due to

social media.

Moreover

, kids at a certain age will be looking for a role model, unfortunately, their parents are busy with work and other aspects of life;

therefore

, they

up turning to these famous individuals and try to imitate the way they behave and dress.

for example

, the famous actress Angelina Jolie showed herself in a new set of clothes from a brand, and 24 hours later, the sales of that company increased by 20 per cent and the majority of clients were kids under the age of 18.

This

tendency can lead to several potential problems, first of all, kids following the latest fashion an actor wears can be an extra burden on parents, for the

reasons

that those clothes are likely to be too expensive for them to afford, and

this

can cause a feeling of resentment amongst their children.

Furthermore

, there are various famous

people

who are known for their bad behaviour and

this

will definitely have a bad influence on their young fans,

for instance

, a year ago the actor Brad Pitt posted a picture on his Instagram holding a cigar,

as a consequence

, a lot of parents claimed that after their sons saw that, they wanted to smoke a cigar.

To conclude

, there are a variety of

reasons

why young

people

try to copy the deeds of celebrities, and

this

trend can indeed cause several issues.
