Nowadays, popularity and fame can evolve in various ways. It's quiet easy to become famous. You can be known because of the job you have, your activity or your talents. There are also some people who are famous just from being famous. Being popular, just like everything else, has some pros and some cons, it can also lead to more or less serious consequences. As we all know, there are many different ways of being popular. I'd like to talk about celebrities.
There are so many ways to catch a spot light these days. Youtube, TV programs which invite "normal", average people or apps like Twitter and Instagram. Anyone can be seen.
That's why celebrities are all over the social media. We can see them on TV, apps, posters, ads etc. The most characteristic feature that they all have in common is being famous, catching media's attention (for example tabloids). According to dictionaries, celebrity is someone who's famous especcially in entertainment business.
I guess, every celebrity is more or less famous, but not every person who's famous has to be a celebrity.
Despite that, probably not all famous people can be labelled as celebrities, most of them may kind of act similar, for example by their activity in social media (which can help them to increase their popularity). It works the same way for actors, musicians, politics, youtubers or bloggers.
The main difference is that, from my perspective, people like actors or musicians, had to work a little bit harder to become who they are and achieve what they have. They had to train themselves, learn and develop their talents.
On the other hand, we have celebrities (at least some of them) who have nothing interesting to show (or just act like it) and are sometimes much more recognisable than talented people. Some of them prefer to do something weird, mean or stupid, to catch attention just for a moment.
I wonder, why do some people desire fame so much?
Personally, I find it quiet hard to understand. I'd wouldn't like to give up my privacy. I don't think I'd be able to deal with all the comments and gossips.

Sometimes it's quiet hard to determine, who is a celebrity and who's just famous. What do you think? How would you describe it?
