by Khanjar, What I see with this world at the moment, is an overwhelming desire to become famous, and do it as quickly as possible. With our media the way it is, daily there is a new face, it seems if the faces on tv has accelerated in recent years, people know this and think that could be me and hopes of fame and fortune to follow, the get rich quick scenario
This is true and we also know that it usually does not involve any talent or skill.
Having said that, it is a painful track for those z-list celebrities because the media loves hammering them to death.
There is a price to fame and those people in the limelight know it.
Very rarely have I seen a amateur student being slated on a forum (cant think of any BTW) but the way some people talk here you would think it was a daily bashing.
Now given that there are literally thousands of dancers out there, how many actually come under any scrutiny? a very very small percentage actually, and they are never usually some 'poor' student or newbie, they are people who advertise themselves and do this as a business.
The people who get discussed and debated on these forums are the ones who declare themselves as artists, performers and teachers etc.
With that comes responsibility...something which few people seem to want to accept.
