Favorite Celebrities

I think we all have those celebs that we just enjoy obsessing over.  For whatever reason, watching people live their own lives doing whatever it is they do, is just a fascinating and entertaining thing to us.  After all, if it weren’t, how on earth would reality TV be so popular?  Here is my own personal list of celebs that I tend to obsess over (in no particular order)!  And yea… you may notice some trends and patterns here….

Emma Watson:  I’ve loved her ever since I was first introduced to this girl in 2001 with the first Harry Potter film.  Since then, she’s not only proved herself on the screen, but as a human being.  She’s incredibly humble, funny, and kind.  She is exactly the type of positive role model that is needed in this world for young girls today. 

Daniel Radcliffe:  Not only is this man hilarious, his personality just comes out in pretty much everything he does.  He is an incredibly ‘real’ person, who is not afraid to admit his mistakes. 

Jennifer Lawrence:  Another completely hilarious person who has not let her fame and success go to her head in any way, Jennifer Lawrence is the type of person that everyone wants in his or her own life.  From the way she handled her fall(s) at the Oscars, to her down to earth nature in interviews, she is quite literally a person that I aspire to be more like.

Josh Hutcherson:  Jennifer Lawrence’s partner-in-crime, Josh Hutcherson is an adorable, yet funny person, that I would love to get to know.  His talent as Peeta in the Hunger Games films is incredible (especially in Catching Fire!), but once again he is another example of someone who does not let fame and success go to his head.

J.K. Rowling:  How do I even begin to explain what this woman means to me?  J.K. Rowling taught me to love reading, to dream big, and so much more.  She took me to far off places with her own imagination and words, and created an entire world in which I felt at home.  But beyond the world of her books, the real life woman has done so much more.  I made friends when I first moved to Baltimore because of common interests in her stories, and she inspired me to write.  As an individual, Rowling is so incredibly humble that she admits that her biggest accomplishment in life is her time spent as a single mother.  If that is not being humble, then I don’t know what is.  This woman lost her “billionaire status” because she gave so much money away to charity, and she has created her own charity, Lumos.  I can only pray and hope that one day I can become half of the person that she is.
