A day in the life of an average person-Andrew Brooks

When was the last time you heard about an average person’s life?

These days, people always want to know about celebrities lives but why can’t we all just concentrate on our own. Average people rule the world not celebrities and Prime Ministers. We are the ones who allow them to run the country, we have the final say before they can go through with it, we can make or break celebrities in an instant .Yet we receive no respect from any of them.

We are the ones who work until we sweat and collapse just to keep the country running. When was the last time you saw Paris Hilton at a cash register actually doing some important work for a change? Instead, she sits inside a nail salon wondering what colour she should choose. These people only have to click their fingers and we come running!

I would say that a day in the life of an average person is probably the hardest life to live. We wake up early in the morning crawl to the kitchen , quickly shove something down our throats and throw on our uniforms, brush our teeth, wash ourselves then hastily jump onto the London transport and make our way to work whilst the “celebrities” just get out of bed whilst someone cooks for them, and prepares their bath. Then we come home and we have to do the cooking and the cleaning whilst they simply have to hire a maid, just to flush the toilet.

We don’t really need celebrities in our lives. They need us. The only free time we have is usually filled with celebrities who advertise themselves everywhere, desperately seeking attention and publicity. It is as if they are little toddlers who have to be tended to every single minute of each day. The only reason why we read about them is because we are so envious of them and would love to see there lives ruined.

The celebrities can sometimes become very similar to pests. There are times when you just want to relax but they are always in your face desperately seeking attention yet again. Then they make a mistake in their lives and it is as if they multiply expecting people to feel sorry for them. But the reality is nobody cares.

Celebrities act as if they made it on their own but they wouldn’t have been so successful without us. It is also appalling how some celebrities treat their fans. These people worship celebrities yet most of them are shunned and ignored. If you read a biography there is absolutely nothing about the fans in there, and they are also written by a ghost writer because the celebrities didn’t have the time, or more often than not, the ability. We are able to hold them together and yet we receive no respect.
