In the recent years, while opponents think that celebrities and other influencers can have a negative effect on the youth and the community, proponents have different points of view. However, I am a staunch believer that entertainers can have a positive impact on our society because their doings are inspiring to the young generations.
On the one hand, a group of individuals think that entertainers like football players, singers, movie actors, and bloggers do not have a prominent role in society compared to other jobs. In other words, football players are payed millions of dollars every year even though their role is to entertain people, while teachers who work hard and teach generations of students do not take a fraction of their salary. For example, Messi, who is a famous footballer, earns 12 million dollars annually, while teachers in the United States earn around 38 thousand dollars. This shows that the field of entertainment is highly demanded although it doesn’t have a positive effect on society.
On the other hand, some celebrities are worth of being praised because of their role in society. Moreover, they participate in health campaigns, offer donations, and even visit hospitals. For example, Mohamed Salah, who is an Egyptian footballer currently playing in Liverpool, donated money to the village where he grew up. In addition, he sometimes his village and talk to the young people there. This example shows that some influencers can have a benign impact on our nation.
In conclusion, by highlighting the above mentioned points, it can be reiterated that some influencers deserve appraisal because of their deeds and because they inspire the youth to be like them. I believe that those influencers should be rewarded because of their inspiring role in our society.
