     This article shows a picture of the Oscars. The Oscars is a popular televised event which most celebrities attend to either receive awards for their latest cinematic achievements or to support their friends or family involved in the television or cinema entertainment industry. This article talks about how spectacular it is that so many celebrities are all gathered in one place together. The author of the emphasizes how special it is and how happy it makes people with mediocre lives to watch many celebrities be in one room together. Cathy Parker states, " I like seeing famous people, but I like it even better when I see a whole bunch of famous people all near each other in a big room." Parker continues on to say," look how close they are. There's so many different ones. I like when one stands up and goes up the stairs and starts talking. My favorite is when one famous person says something that makes the other famous people laugh."
     All of this might be exaggerated but it does have some truth to it. The media loves watching a group of famous people all interacting together and cracking jokes and having each others spectacular lives cross paths with the others. But the author of the article makes fun of the fact that people are so amused by this. She makes fun of the fact that regular people idolize celebrities so much that just the fact of seeing them tovether  and interacting causes the media to get excited.
