Why the hell am I so obsessed?
Just so you know, I'm not stupid. I understand that Made In Chelsea is manufactured. Personally, I don't care if Louise and Jamie aren't really together and if Caggie and Spencer never had a chance. The fact is, I fucking love Made in Chelsea. Its the only show I actually stay up for. And I love my sleep!
I know I'm not alone! The problem with the perception of others towards the audience of reality television is somewhat ignorant. We're not all stupid, low confidence girls who have to find entertainment in the lives of celebrities because that's 'all we've even dreamed of'.
But I cannot tell you why I like it so much. It might be because they are all so beautiful, the plot line is so predictable, and I'd love to be that rich! Some theorists say that it's 'polluting' my mind 'with distorted pictures of reality' and I reckon they are probably right.
I think there has become a construction of two audiences in a binary opposition. From Twilight to Justin Bieber, not liking stuff has become cool. The way fans are portrayed in the media is obsessive, unintelligent and... female. When will people realise that it's okay to love mainstream stuff?
I think the only exception to the rule is Harry Potter.
The countdown to MIC at ten o'clock is on!
