Is Celebrity Influence Positive or Harmful?

Celebrities shape fashion, politics, and lifestyle choices, but can this influence distort values or promote superficiality? Do fans emulate positive behaviors, or are celebrity trends often unrealistic and damaging? How should society balance admiration with critical thinking about public figures?

I think celebrity influence is creating unrealistic beauty and physical standards. There are some celebrities that are doing good for the society yet most people follow celebrities that are not contributing to the society positively.

I think it is doing both. Celebrity influence can raise awareness, normalize important conversations, and mobilize people quickly. At the same time, it can promote shallow thinking, unrealistic lifestyles, and unchecked authority. The impact depends on how critically audiences engage and how responsibly celebrities use their platforms.

Celebrity influence is both positive and negative. Some celebrities spread positivity, while others spread negativity. I have been seeing a lot of celebrities who do charity work that inspires others to do the same. Meanwhile, some celebrities set unrealistic standards.
