Emmys. Grammys. Tonys. Academy Awards.
I'm sure millions of dollars go into the production of these televised red-carpet events and for what? So entertainers can be recognized for their achievements. Wow.
There is something really pathetic about this concept. Aren't the entertainers rewarded with the millions of dollars they receive in their paycheck?
Why don't we have televised shows rewarding people who have made real achievements.. inventors, teachers, heroic acts, things of that nature... people who have made their community a better place. That's reality tv in a good way! I think you need to have someone really fun as a host, but seriously, let's start rewarding those who need recognizing. Real people who have made a difference.
Maybe Joe Fireman won't look as sexy in a $10,000 Armani gown and that will turn people off. Get over it.
I have a friend who loves to watch the awards show because of the gowns. I asked how she felt after watching the show. Like, do you feel good as a woman after watching a size 0 actresses who just spent 4 hours having her hair done and 2 hours getting her make-up done and 2 hours getting dressed by professionals strut her stuff down the red carpet while commentators talk about ther outfit and hair?
I think it is a ridiculous waste of time and money and we need to change it into something positive.
