Sample Answer
Technology and social media have profoundly transformed the landscape of fame and celebrity, shifting the paradigm from traditional forms of recognition to a more democratic and accessible model. In the past, celebrity status was largely attainable through established channels such as film, television, and print media, often orchestrated by publicists and gatekeepers. However, platforms like Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube enable individuals to cultivate their own public personas directly, bypassing conventional media frameworks. This shift democratizes fame, allowing a more diverse array of voices to emerge, but it also raises important questions about authenticity and the ephemeral nature of viral fame. While social media can propel individuals to stardom overnight, it can equally lead to a swift decline, underscoring the precariousness of modern celebrity in a digitally saturated environment.
