"Excessive fan behavior endangers celebritiesā lives and mental health."
This is a publication based on the suggested topic proposed in the Hive Learners community through their discord, which on this occasion is "Fans And Celebrities".
Hello, dear readers, and welcome back to my blog. Today, Iām going to talk about fans and celebrities. The answer to this question is a definitive yes. Letās understand that, in the context of a fan being someone who admires a person or celebrity of their choice, the assumption is that a group of people will go to ask for autographs, take a photo with their favorite artist or musician, and thatās it. Everything would be fine up to that point. But the problem is that, nowadays, behaviors have reached an excessive level where these celebrities cannot live normal lives. To the extent that very famous people, like streamers Auronplay, Vegetta777, El Rubius, and others, have had to move to remote locations to barely maintain a normal life. This is because whenever they go out in public, they cannot live normally, as they are stalked by enormous crowds. Through the internet and YouTube, weāve seen how, on multiple occasions, influencers and famous people like Ibai, El Xocas, and those mentioned earlier have been in public places, such as stores, and had to call the police repeatedly to help them escape because the crowd wouldnāt let them leave. This poses a danger to their lives. Fan behavior is neither reasonable nor healthy. This leads us to the next question: I believe this is completely irrational and a sign that humanity is losing its critical thinking and becoming more impulsive. Theyāre acting automatically, and this is precisely because newer generations have grown accustomed to instant dopamine hitsāwhere watching a short video gives them satisfaction, laughter, and an urgency for immediate interaction with celebrities. They do everything possible to reach that celebrity as quickly as possible. This is why they exhibit aggressive behavior: they want to be the first to receive a hug from the celebrity, not just to claim the title of āfirstā but to fulfill an emotional need for dopamine, which their brains crave, pushing them to act aggressively. And, of course, this can become extremely dangerous for these celebrities and for human behavior in general. Imagine a group of people rushing to hug you, take a photo with you, or touch youāas happens with very famous male celebrities like Henry Canvill or Dwayne Johnson (āThe Rockā), who are highly attractive and desired by many women. Even if these men are physically strong, facing a crowd of 50,000 aggressive women who want to throw themselves at them is entirely different. They could easily be suffocated or even killed simply for wanting a piece of their clothing or to touch them. I believe we urgently need more education in schools to teach these teenagers and generations, as well as society at large, to be more civilized and understand that boundaries are necessary. In 99.9% of cases, these celebrities represent a fictional, idealized lifeānot the reality they actually live. While they may appear to live luxuriously without hardship, trust me: they face everyday struggles like you and I. Theyāre not exempt, because they live in the same world, breathe the same air, and need love, distraction, and spaces to have fun and spend time with family. Yet, being harassed and chased by fans makes this impossible, leading to frustration and deep concern for their safety. Imagine living in fear that every time you leave home, youāll be followedāor unable to enjoy a movie in a theater because fans will ask for autographs, take photos, or talk to you throughout the film. These people are forced into isolation by their fans. They become reclusive, moving to remote places like Andorra to seek solitude and prevent fans from disrupting their lives. Humanity needs more respect, empathy, and critical thinking. We must recognize that celebrities live fictionalized lives, crafted to appeal to those who idealize them and believe they can one day attain that same āreality.ā Nothing could be further from the truth. Personally, Iād love to chat with Neil deGrasse Tyson about the starsābut I wouldnāt invade his privacy. Iād sit across from him for a pleasant conversation. Or learn dance steps from Michael Jacksonāwithout crossing boundaries or touching him, just exchanging ideas and showing respect and admiration in a calm, intellectual way. And Iād hope fans would treat me the same if I were a celebrity. We need to practice empathy and put ourselves in celebritiesā shoes. And, as Iāve said, we need more education and cultural awareness.

I'm not famous and I had already become a bit of a recluse. I don't want to imagine people following me or harassing me in the street with the photo thing...
I agree that this behaviour is a total failure as a fan of something.
I think in their minds is something like: I'm your fan, you eat thanks to me watching you, so now give me a photo, an autograph, your child...
I'm going to start harassing you! š So you bring Antonio back in any series, see that is cool, and a lot of Hahaha.
The truth is that they can think like this, and it is absurd, they have no idea of āāall the work that is behind each of these publications, of each of these answers and interactions. Anyway, the new mentalities are horrible my friend, rather scare.
Yeah... The way these people act impulsively, you know very well that they don't think what they're doing through. It's just sad that many times, the celebs have to suffer this. Fans also suffer from aggression, especially from inpatient celebs. It's just a crazy world.
They are people who are not normal, you will apologize to me but the one someone gets sick with another person is too absurd.
We need a more rational world, people who think and write rationally colleague.
Fans are really becoming excessively aggressive at every slight encounter with celebrities and it's wrong. Celebrities are humans too and they want to live like one but fans make it difficult for them to go around doing things as they want.
I think the genZ made things worse and that's why celebrities today go about with bouncers who are sometimes heavily harmed. I believe whichever a celebrity treats us is how we have made them feel.
It is the worrying truth as fans are increasingly aggressive, I suppose it is the symbol of current times. Each person must be entitled to their space, and to be respected. I agree with you, the "Z" made everything worse and decadent.
From what you say the fan issue is tough for some celebrities I don't know. And they are lucky I don't know them because if I did I would make their lives miserable. Out of jokes, I think there are things that are beyond education. What can I think of someone who needs to be photographed with someone to feel important?
Anyway, a big hug, @manclar.
It depends if it is a tree, I suppose that if it is worth it š
