Where have they gone?

Because honestly I don't see many. Especially when it comes to these people we so longingly look up to. They can get away with murder because they are famous, literally it's happened more than once. And not only extreme cases like this, but they are showing girls that it's okay to dress like a whore and not respect yourself, to be blunt.

Little girls have Miley Cyrus on their walls, wishing to be her, while she's smoking a blunt on stage in less than what you wear to the beach. I know I sound like I'm 85, but as a girl at the age of 22 this makes me so mad. I respect myself, and I slowly see more and more friends and peers lacking that. They will do anything for attention anymore and more is becoming acceptable. And it all stems from what we see on TV and in these magazines, that people copy so they can be like these 'princesses'. Ya know, if they do it, and I want to be them, obviously I should too. If you can't have the money and material items and big houses, then at least try and look like them, right?

And if they smoke pot, you should too? And if they sleep with multiple people, it's cool. It's expanded from the idea that you want to wear pretty dresses and marry a prince and live in a castle. These princesses that we view now are more available to us and we copy them because we want to have their life.
