I’m getting old, don’t know who these “stars” are anymore.
Same here.
There was a time when I’d be thumbing through a celebrity magazine and I knew who each and every star was in the magazine. Even when they used first names only. Frank was frank Sinatra. Johnny was Johnny Carson. Elizabeth was Elizabeth Taylor. Liza was Liza minelli. Lucy was Lucille ball, Etc.
Today, I’ll be browsing through a celebrity magazine in a doctors waiting room or something like that, and I’ll not know a single “celebrity” in the magazine. It doesn’t help that the magazine mostly refers to them with their first names only. And I’ll he thinking, who are these people and why are they “famous”, at least famous enough that justified putting their names and faces on the cover of magazines? Never heard of these people.
