No Rules

The new year ushers in hopes for many young talents hoping to join various celebrity searches, beauty contests, or any other opportunity that could lead to that break. Instead of opting to take the school-route, many would prefer to capitalize on their looks and talents to alleviate their families. Thus, competition can be tough and wannabees have to be extra-ordinary to be noticed.

The moment when a once-unknown is bestowed the chance for stardom, his/her life is changed. He/She has to keep with the image given to him/her by the management. Privacy and financial situations change. When the unknown becomes known, every movement is watched, and unguarded photos and comments are uploaded in social media. Such is the price of fame, but the financial gains can compensate for lack of privacy.

Sadly, not every young person who becomes successful in his/her career early realize that he/she is just in the initial step, as keeping an acceptable image and sustainability are keys to true and lasting success in the entertainment scene. The cliché is true that one is only as good as the last project and he/she has to find ways to keep fans interested.

When Defiant Actor (DA) started showing lack of interest in his projects, many started to feel sorry for him, as he was on a second chance momentum. However, he seemed to have become tired of having to conform to the rules set by management. DA wanted to go on his own and live within his rules. He no longer wanted to be the boy-next-door or the role model for the youth. He wants to light that cigarette, dance like no one is watching, and bask under the sun and swim in the waters for as long as he wants. So, he dropped everything that would hinder him from holding on to his own time.

DA is not along. Like him, Talented Celebrity (TC) has decided to explore other options and slowly deviate from the career path that was being set for her. TC has shunned the “nice girl” image and has no qualms showing off her body in the skimpiest outfit in endorsements and even in public. Rumors are strong that she’s also preparing to leave the people who have invested in building up her career. Observers are keen on tagging DA and TC as embodiments of ‘you only live once’ and the two are living it up. The new year holds much promise and if DA and TC will be successful in fulfilling their plans in 2020 remains to be seen.

“We yearn for opportunities, we pray for opportunities and we seek for opportunities. The good news is that we meet opportunities. The bad news is that we miss the opportunities only to come to a later realization of missed opportunities.” ― Ernest Agyemang Yeboah
