Unfortunately, no matter how hard you work, how successful you are, or how much kindness you try to show, there will always be individuals who want to bring you down.
This is never more true than in the entertainment industry, where stars live out their lives in full view of the public and frequently have every decision they make scrutinized and debated.
poster-poster Is it just? No, not at all. However, it might be argued that leading a famous and public life in front of cameras exposes you to the kind of scrutiny that invariably leads to criticism of one kind or another.
Having said that, I firmly think that no one, regardless of wealth, should ever be subjected to severe judgment because of their appearance.
That’s why I find it quite perplexing that singer-songwriter Katy Perry recently sparked controversy by sharing three images and a video to Instagram featuring herself looking very attractive in a two-piece bikini and visor.
It’s safe to believe that Perry, who has been a fixture in the music business for more than ten years, has a thick enough skin to take criticism well. But it doesn’t follow that she ought to.
Whatever the case, there was disagreement over the content in question, which showed Perry allegedly sipping from a can of Drink De Soi, a non-alcoholic beverage business she co-founded with Morgan McLachlan last year, while standing on a balcony.
The TGIF singer was seen in one of the pictures elevating her right leg and holding the drink in her left hand.
We can all agree that it was far from extreme, but some online users still had unfavorable things to say.
One person just wrote, ‘WHAT IS THIS?’ Someone else called Perry’s post ‘unethical.’ Meanwhile, a third wrote, ‘Ur getting old katy,’ mocking her age of all things. ‘Pissed,’ a fourth person said.
It goes without saying that some people made use of their time to compliment the celebrity. Someone wrote, ‘It’s the balcony energy we needed.’
Another joked, ‘I would be straight for you.’ ‘Absolutely stunning! ‘She’s amazing,’ remarked a third. Naturally, Perry’s choice of attire has sparked online debate on several occasions in recent months.
The 39-year-old nearly escaped a dramatic wardrobe mishap on a live American Idol episode back in April.
The futuristic top of the Daisies hitmaker cracked just before Roman Collins was about to perform James Brown’s It’s A Man’s Man’s Man’s World on stage.
In a behind-the-scenes video that Perry uploaded to Instagram, she stated, ‘I need my top to stay on.’ ‘This show is going to get more than it wanted if it’s not fixed.’ How did Perry’s bikini post strike you? Tell us in the comments below.
