Why are so many celebrities getting divorces?

Question

I don't get it. Paul McCartney, Mark Walhberg, Phil Collins, Morgan Freeman, Madonna, A-Rod, I can go on and on. This upsets me becuz it does not bring a good example to our kids or the younger population. They will view marriage just like how the celebrities view it...not sacred, just for show...and that only means that when they get into a serious relationship, they will not work hard to keep it together...they will just give up and "divorce" becuz its the easy way out.

Answer 1

well they're really stupid....and your right the younger people of today will  get married and divorced cause they feel everyone else is doing it so why cant they...i totally agree with you!!  

Answer 2

Nah they need to get back in the spot light so nothing like a nasty divorce to get people talking.

On a serious note I blame the press always in their face and spreading gossip.  It has to be hard when no matter what you do you know the public will hear about it.   They know that going in but still d**n give them space.

Answer 3

yeah its not that they get marry because alot of things for them or their family for example a mariah n nick cannon people didnt even knew they were dating or nothing until they founf out that they were going to get marry .... nick cannon has been maried more than 2 times already and had divorced and got all that girlz money and like mirah was getting back on her hits he might of said imma make good money ..other people do it because to the money but this was they split it in half just because paparatcis will give anything to go inside the weading or the party and because thier family tells them to!!>.,  

Answer 4

well it is the media's fault not the celebrities, the media doesn't really need to report so and so and their spouse is getting a divorce but they do and the best thing you can do is change the channel or not get magazines that issue that stuff like the national inquirer and you can even turn off the radio while the DJs are talking.

parents have many ways to control it but they don't seem to know how to do it or want to do it.

the best thing you can do for your kids is to talk to them and put in a good example by keeping you and your spouse's love alive and still kickin. kid's morals first come from parents and socializing with friends. so turn off the forms of media for a certain amount of time a day or week *what ever you can do* and have some fun with your whole family

Answer 5

it is insane. it's terrible the way marriage has been destructed in our society. unfortunatly children are seeing this too.

Answer 6

You have a good point, something i've noticed myself. So many celebrity couples that are together for a while and suddenly there divorced . I agree with the answers above...maybe its just the fact that there so quick into relationships & romances....!!

Answer 7

they fly too quickly into romances.

madonna's not getting one, by the way. Yet, at least.  

Answer 8

publicity

Answer 9

cause they're celebreties and they can also get someone hotter.

Answer 10

Why is everyone in the US getting divorced?  The divorce rate in this country is WAY too high in my opinion....people do not make the commitment to stay together anymore.  Sure there are some circumstances that would merit a divorce, but most people just get married without thinking about things.....because they can always get a divorce if it doesn't work out!!

Answer 11

Because they can,they're rich.  

Answer 12

because most celebrities don't marry for love, they marry because it's good for their career.

Answer 13

married to early and not dated long enuf

Answer 14

Because there shallow and superficial.

Answer 15

because of the papperazzi (sp.) they get into their lives and make up rumors that tear them apart

Answer 16

because celebs don't know what real love is.

they only marry a other celeb because they are just "good friends" or whatever. And when they get into a fight, they don't try to work it out have it blow over, they get divorced.

it is SO stupid

Answer 17

Divorce happens in over 50% of marriages...it's a sad fact and you're blaming celebrities...and it's just b/c they are in the public eye

Answer 18

There is a saying in Hollywood. "No press is bad press." In other words the only time the press is bad is when there isn't any about you. A Celebrity's worst nightmare is that people quit talking about them. It doesn't matter what they say as long as they say your name with it. Do you really think that Winona Ryder is a cleptomaniac? She just had to get her name back in print so that movie makers would give her some work.

Answer 19

Cuz you were born ja ja ja ja ja ja !

Answer 20

Because they just get married so people can talk about I guess

Answer 21

More money, more problems.

Bigger ego, bigger problems.

Answer 22

They can afford to/

Answer 23

what!! mark walhberg is gettting divorced!! thats wonderful...now can get married to him...unless ofcourse christian bale gets divorced...then im all his

yeah but its just because they get married thinking they are in love when they arent...and celebrities dont have all the time in the world to spend with eachother so that doesnt help

Answer 24

I agree. Most, but definitely not all, celebrities today are horrible examples for the younger generation. Parents just have to tell their kids that that is not the right thing and you should never act like that and that marriage is a holy ceremony and it IS sacred, just like you said.
