Unfortunately I’m at the age where you see a lot of your heros images decay in front of you. What I’ve picked up on is that, at the end of the day, you will never ever know any of these people unless you personally know them and have an open and honest relationship with them.

Now I just treat celebrities as companies, if they make cool stuff, I dig their work but that’s where the line is drawn.

Shout out to all the shitty fucking male role models in the world 🖤🖤🖤 /s

You're right.

Thankfully in this instance, it's a joke, playing with your expectations of headlines. But yeah, celebs are companies

They are marketing companies that supply advertising & influence to the people who pay them.
