Most of us, when looking at female celebrity pictures would see a standard spectrum of things ranging from the subject in the picture's wardrobe to the latest gossip the said subject or celebrity has generated. Their relationships, lack or failure thereof as well as sexual orientation are fair game as well.
It seems we use these so-called 'Icons' as a strange mix, as a source of information on, for lack of a better term, the latest fashions and all the details this entails; and as a source of criticism that reassures us that the subjects of these pictures are human beings like us.
If they are known and remembered, then it is also possible for us to to be. One could say it is a bizarre sort of 'God complex' for the masses struggling to find purpose and meaning in their lives. A strange, superficial way to try fill the emptiness.
One could say they are a strange projection of our own psychological state and thus we can use them to look into ourselves and, thus in fact find ways to improve our own lives, if we of course have the courage to do so. This would also require much self criticism as well and enough honesty to admit and see this.
What is it saying about us in we look and criticize the above average achievements of a human being like us. A human being who despite having weaknesses like ours they were still able to achieve some pretty great things. For the sake of argument, let us just ignore 'pop-culture' frauds shall we.
If we are honest with ourselves than we have to accept our own 'failures' and 'inadequacies' and this is when things can get really interesting, for the good or for the better for all and for ourselves, once again depending on what kind of person we are or what kind of attitude we subscribe to.
We can accept our mediocre and normal lives and see only this in the lives of those who have achieved and a simple coping mechanism or a crutch and thus we would not have to do any actual work. We can accept what we see as a pathetic existence and slowly fade away into oblivion, occasionally seeing someone who actually put some effort into doing something with their lives fall and get our empty joy from this like some gutless wonder and armchair achiever.
Alternatively we can recognise that there is always to do in our lives, and ore to accomplish. We can use the celebrity in the picture as an example of what can be done, what can be accomplished. What one man or woman can do, another man or woman can do. That is the way to live. 'Do not go quietly into that goodnight, rage, rage with the dying of the light' as the poet wrote. Oh well, it's better than sitting around doing nothing.
