Narcissism is a social disease that afflicts the rich and the famous. This disease is regularly sustained by the media which routinely feed on the gullibility of the famous. At the height of her “social sickness”, Britney Spears was notorious for her desperation for the limelight. And when it appeared that some other fellow narcissistic celebrities were stealing the shows, Spears resorted to the absurd. She shaved her head and, promptly, the young woman was back on top of the news. But in spite of all that nonsense, the time came for the media to get their hands on a fresh set of suckers.
Right now, the most notorious in narcissism among the celebrities are Kim Kardashian and Beyoncé Giselle Knowles-Carter a.k.a. Beyonce. Amidst a very tight competition, these two women will go to any length to display their obsession for public attention. From marrying some “unusual” men to giving their kids names that are most ludicrous and wearing outfits that make them look as good as stark naked, just anything will do in feeding their insatiable lust for public attention. And this was evident at the last Met gala where both Kim Kardashian and Beyoncé wore outfits that left nothing to imagination.
In the above picture, the gross hypocrisy of the American media was glaring. One picture that shows celebrities in the erotic movies genre is captioned as “Porn stars at the 2014 AVN porn Awards”. But the other picture showing Beyoncé and Kim Kardashian is captioned as “Influential people at the Met gala.” Objectively though, the “porn stars” dressed like choir girls when compared to the so-called influential women who looked as good as cheap whores.

I love Beyonce. But sometimes, I wonder what else she wants each time she bares it all just for the sake of attention.
Uhmmmmmmmm! It's difficult for me to be outright objective here. I love my baby girl, Beyonce. But her idea of showing off in all those revealing dress all the time....?
This is what the public loves. Ours is a very voyeuristic society where porn or what they love to call "sex appeal" is the norm in advertising careers and selling products.
What gets on my nerve is the sheer hypocrisy of our society. On the one hand, we condemn porn while watching it in the privacy of our homes. And on the other hand, we cheer celebrities when they expose their bodies while dragging other ordinary folks to jail for "indecent exposures".
At the end of the end of the day, it’s a FREE country. We should not lose sight of that fact. btw, please leave Beyonce alone, she is my girl!
The home girl (Beyonce) merely wants to be the center of attention all the time and she will go to any length to get it. As for Kim-whats’s-her-name, I don’t ever reckon about her cheap desperation for attention.
In Hollywood, people will do anything to grab attention. To be forgotten by the public takes only a few days of “absence” from the news.
Whatever Beyonce does is okay by some of us. If she likes, she can go out in the nude for all we care.
Our media have always been hypocritical. They want to be the conscience of the nation in spite of their double-face outlook and practices.
I never trust the media even though they always want to shape public opinion.
Hey, Beyonce is my idol and I’ll not take this castigation from you. On the other hand though, you stated some home truth here…lol.
Wow, what an analysis!
