In recent years, drug abuse by artists has become a trend. Recently, from the singer Li to the director, to Cai Shenning, even the younger Zhang Mo, to today's, however, in the face of this year's frequent "artists were arrested for drug-related" incidents, the media has a variety of interpretations. Some people think that in the 1960s and 1970s, some "masters" of popular culture produced a lot of works in the illusion of drug making, because they also hoped to get more creative inspiration by imitating this kind of drug taking. Others believe that drug abuse is a "subculture" derived from modern western pop culture. "This subculture also affects Asia today to some extent." Director Bird told reporters that he used to be a follower of this "subculture". In the eyes of more young artists, ecstasy, K powder, crystal meth and various new drugs are all symbols of fashion, and staying away from them means staying away from the fashion in the circle. A senior entertainment reporter once said that one of the important reasons why drug abuse in the entertainment circle is like influenza is that some people regard ugliness as fashion. I dare to smoke if others don't smoke. This is called "maverick". I don't like smoking if everyone else smokes. Isn't it just "don't understand the current affairs"? One can show his special status and dare to break the law, and the other can be integrated into the entertainment circle and not let others look down on him.
No matter what the real reason is for artists to take drugs, the results of drug abuse by stars are devastating. Once an artist is infected with drugs, not only the social image he has worked hard to establish before will be destroyed, but also his career that he has worked hard for more than two years will be destroyed. The film and television contract is gone, the commercial endorsement is gone, and the future and proposition are gone. Looking back, which star who was once exposed to the drug abuse scandal did not quickly degenerate and return to loneliness?
What is particularly worrying is that since they are public figures, it means that they have extensive influence in society and have thousands of fans and admirers, among which teenagers are the main group. Teenagers like to imitate their idols best. They can imitate stars' clothes, their hairstyles, and naturally they can imitate stars taking drugs, or at least they won't take drugs seriously. In other words, performing stars who should have more public awareness and assume more social responsibilities will become "negative energy" of society once they become "addicts".
For your career and future, for your family and friends, and for your sense of social responsibility, please be self-disciplined and law-abiding, and stay away from drugs.
