i have no idols.
the one or two people i admire are personal friends who have admirable qualities (remain decent under extreme adversity...etc)


most people admire celebrities because they represent something they dont have .. beauty, wealth, power, admiration.
(kind of the snake eating its tail isnt it)

sometimes they admire the skill of the craft (artist, actor, musician)- which is easier to understand .. but for the majority - its so they can live vicariously through the exploits of someone they could never be.
