Role models are hard to define because they are different for everyone. Previous blogs talked about celebrities and famous people starting out as role models, but then failing. I think this is because just about everybody, even celebrities, have insecurities. I was looking around on the Internet I came across a quote by Miley Cyrus talking about her insecurities. She said, “I hate my long legs and smile.” Now I don’t know the validity of this quote, but I am would not be surprised if she does have insecurities, even if these are not them. She is a pretty big role model for younger girls, yet because she has insecurities, she does whatever it takes to make herself feel better, even if is not a good example for younger girls. How can people be perfect role models in they have insecurities? There must be something not perfect about them, or so they think, so I do not see how they can be role models. I agree with Tina; people are not perfect and do make mistakes, so can there be role models?
