Violating Etiquette to Show She Has Had Enough

Behaving in a public place can sometime take its toll on celebrities. However, celebrities cannot just act without thinking that their public scene can be taken against their image. Most seasoned celebrities have learned to display their best behavior and to keep their cool despite trying situations.

Sometime ago, Former Icon (FI) was seen having a late snack at a patisserie. FI was obviously relaxing in the small place that could fit less than 20 individuals. FI did not seem to be bothered by the fact that she was alone at her table. Other customers did not seem to bother her. As FI continued eating, a young child started to cry incessantly. Other diners looked at the child, but were bothered, as the parents did not bother to pacify the child.

As if the noise was not enough, FI suddenly answered a call and placed it on speakerphone, which reverberated in the small room. Thus, the loud voice coming from the phone and that of the crying child jolted the tiny space. After a few minutes, FI ended her call, while the child continued crying regardless of the attention the parents finally gave. Another person joined FI, and they left as soon as FI was done eating.

Initially, the action of FI seemed to be her way of calling attention to herself. The height of her popularity came a few decades ago when her films made money at the box office thanks to the myth of a certain piece of clothing. A series of life events as well as her personal struggles made her lose that position. Over the years, FI would bounce back after every setback. At present, FI has to be contented with supporting roles to today’s stars and non-recognition by the younger generation.

On hindsight, FI could have been giving a message as to why she placed the call on speaker mode. Perhaps, FI, like other diners, was already bothered by the crying child. Her action could have stressed that point. Instead of speaking to the parents, FI reacted in her own way. Actions do speak louder than words at times.
