Celebrities have a big effect on the people we become. Some people spend so much time in the entertainment world that they begin to idolize certain celebrities in hopes of becoming like them. Two major starlets in the eyes of countless teenage girls around the world would be Jennifer Lawrence, known for her starring role as Katniss Everdeen in the film The Hunger Games, and Miley Cyrus, a hit singer with number one songs, "We Can' t Stop” and “Wrecking Ball”. These two stars both have large and supportive fan bases, but the question that arises is which celebrity is the best role model for teenage girls? Jennifer Lawrence is a better role model for teenage girls than Miley Cyrus because of her convictions, modesty and humility. For starters, Jennifer Lawrence is a better role model for teenage girls than Miley Cyrus because of her beliefs. Jennifer Lawrence's ideals have a deeper positive influence on her fans. She cares a lot about what her fans think when it comes to body image. "I'm never going to starve myself for a role...I don't want little girls to be like, 'Oh, I want to be like Katniss, so I'm going to skip dinner,'" Lawrence told Elle magazine . . (Marcus) On the other hand, Miley Cyrus seems to have few morals when it comes to her ideals. Cyrus tends to focus on what she believes will benefit her while rarely considering the effect she has on her fans. To illustrate, Cyrus encourages any innuendo such as partying, drinking and using drugs. Cyrus' hit song "We Can't Stop" is practically an anthem for her fans, in which she encourages them to do whatever they want, regardless of the rules. An example of a song that encourages this behavior is "We Like to Party and Dance with Molly." ...... middle of paper ...... and trashy. Lawrence is humble instead of being self-centered like Cyrus. Lawrence encourages teenage girls to be a better version of themselves, while Cyrus knocks down their morals like a wrecking ball. Society should not want the future generation of the world to be influenced by a celebrity with a negative appeal, but rather by a celebrity with a greater moral impact. When it comes to choosing who will deserve the role of role model, we must keep in mind valuable ideals, such as good morals, modesty and humility. Good choice and “may the odds always be in your favor!” » Works CitedMarcus, Stephanie. "Jennifer Lawrence Weight: Actress Tells Hollywood She's Obese (PHOTOS)." The Huffington Post.
