The Image Manipulation of celebrities on young adults
The Image Manipulation of celebrities on young adults It’s almost everywhere you look. Pictures of emaciated young women are rampant on magazine covers, advertisements, billboards: everywhere. It is quite evident by flipping through a magazine, or just glancing at the advertisements on television, what the media considers as the "ideal" figure. This perception has been created, in a large part, by images put forth by movie stars and models. The fact that the media is so influential in our society, and we idealize the lives of people in the limelight plays a major part in our country’s obsession with thinness and extreme dieting. North America’s obsession with health, diets, the fashion industry, and television exhibiting waif thin models and actresses as "sexy and voluptuous", gives a distorted notion, sending many young women the wrong idea about body image. In today's society eating problems, such as anorexia and bulimia, are becoming all too common.
