What is wrong with people?? What happened to originality? What happened to being unique? It was just on the news that since Palin hit the scenes everyone is wanting glasses just like she wears. The woman they interviewed works at an eye glass center and she said that the phone has been ringing off the hook everyone asking if they have the Sarah Palin glasses. Oddly enough the woman being interviewed was not only wearing the glasses, but her hair oddly resembled Palin’s too.
Why do we feel this huge need to wear what people on tv are wearing? I know this is nothing new, it’s been around for eons. In the 80s, Madonna hit the scene in her Like a Virgin video and suddenly ever girl was dressing like Madonna. Then came MC Hammer and the hammer pants (thank you God those didn’t last).
It’s really sad when the people we tend to look up to are on television and not the teachers who educate us, the ministers, preachers, and priests who pray for us, the police who try to protect us, the doctors and nurses who work to save us.
