The income streams today for TV and other mass media comes from product placement and advertising - i.e. selling the actual products on the shelves such as dog shampoo. I don't like either way of viewing the world. Ultimately, it stifles the creativity of the creative people that make it all happen. Just look at the falling figures for reality TV here in the UK...

Interesting article. I also think that many people are looking to buy style, because they are insecure in their own. They copy whatever a starlet has worn or a catalog displays on its front cover, and call that style. I think both glamour and style come from the inside. Otherwise, it's just a mask that we wear. Of course... those studios back in the glamour days... well, they manufactured everything about their stars' lives, from the dresses they wore to the vacations they enjoyed to the people they dated. There's a glamour in that, too. The glamour of a magic spell being woven in the glare of a spot light. I really like this post. Interesting article.
