America seems to have an obsession with its celebrities. They seem to interact on a cloud high above us, living out the lavish lives we all yearn for. Of course, that doesn’t mean they can’t act incredibly humanoid. Celebrities are especially important to teenagers, who look up to and idolize these larger-than-life figures.
It seems many South Lakes students are showing “Bieber Fever.”
“He has many new albums and has come a long way this year,” said junior Sana Rauf.
“I believe that Justin Bieber is the most popular because everyone is always talking about him whether or not they like him or hate him,” said freshman Monica Perez.
Another big name in the news this year was reality TV star Kim Kardashian.
“She gets a lot of attention, good and bad, over her daily life,” said freshman Kylie Carney. “This includes her 72-day marriage.”
Although this was our first Top 11 Poll, we were forced to list twelve due to a three-way tie for the final spot. Voting results out of 182 students polled are as followed:
Justin Bieber (46)
Kim Kardashian (25)
Mac Miller and Charlie Sheen (14)
Steve Jobs (5)
Joe Paterno, Tyler the Creator, Bradley Cooper, and Lady Gaga (4)
Beyonce, Selena Gomez, and Rebecca Black (3)
