Never look at what happens on social media and feel bad, that’s one lesson we’ve learnt over and over again.
Most of these celebrities that we see trotting ‘glamorous’ lifestyles around are living a lie, and eventually the truth comes crashing down on them like a waterfall.
And don’t take it from us; veteran filmaker Shirley Frimpong Manso echoed the same sentiments.
Speaking on Joy Fm, the ‘Adam’s Apple’ director said a lot of the glamour we see surrounding celebrities is fake.
“It is not as glamorous as it seems so a lot of you out there sitting around and watching all these videos on social media with people standing by some cars and driving these flashy cars; it is not that glamorous, trust me.” she told Lexis Bill.
“Some of them [flashy things] have not been paid for,”
From someone in the industry, never measure your life against others simply based on what you see on social media.
“…If you stay on social media too long, you will properly kill yourself. It is not that glamorous… Showbiz means that you properly need to make a showy.” she added.
