A leader is defined as a person who guides or directs other people. He is a person who influences people. Yet many celebrities and music makers influence people in ways that are not good and which can actually be harmful. Are they still leaders? Why or why not? What is your definition of a leader?
My definition of a leader is a role model. If they have done something worth admiring, they are a leader. But when celebrities hump wrecking balls and shake their butts in front of a cameras to make money doesn't make them seem respectable. It's like, come on, people! I think that people only respect and follow them because they are famous and want to follow in their footsteps making a lot of money. I don't think that celebrities are leaders, (they're sometimes not even human) I think they are just followed.
ReplyDeleteWOOPS! THERE SHOULD NOT HAVE BEEN AN "A" IN FRONT OF CAMERAS IN THE THIRD SENTENCE!!
ReplyDeleteREMEMBER, KEEP CLAM, AND ALWAYS PROOFREAD!!!!!!!!!!
I think those people are still leaders, they just aren't positive one. They are setting examples people will still follow because they realize they are making bad decisions. I think people need to think of people and the example they are setting to others before they act.
ReplyDeleteI think those people are still leaders, but just not in a positive way. Some people know right from wrong. But a lot of people think its okay by being convinced by others.
ReplyDeleteNo, I don't think that they are leaders because if they are doing something that is hurting someone they aren't a leader, they are just someone that is trying to make someone do something that will change there life forever in a bad way. My definition of a leader is someone that cares and respects other people. They make good decisions and they help other people around them make good decisions.
ReplyDeleteYou can't be a leader if you be mean to others. yes there are those people out there, but why follow those people that re disrespectful. Those people take bullying, picking on, and disrespect to far. If we all stick together we can stop these people from becoming a bad leader. We can convince them that you don't have to be a bad person, you can also be a good leader. Change the ways of people like this. It doesnt have to be like this.
ReplyDeletegood job dalton you have persuaded me.
DeleteA leader is somebody that you look up to, be like them, and do what they do. I don't think it matters if you set a bad influence because if they set an example on you, then they are still a leader in you own kind of way.
ReplyDeleteWell even though they still guide people, but hurt them, they wouldn't be a leader because the little kids would learn from that leader and hurt other people too.
ReplyDeleteNo. Because people who lead should be good leaders not bad leaders.A leader to me is a person who leads people in a good manner.
ReplyDeleteI believe that people that are a good influence and do the right thing and help others and teach them are leaders.I do not believe that these music stars are not leaders but others might believe they are because they think that it is cool.Leaders help others and do good things to have a good influence.
ReplyDeleteI think leaders are people how wont give up and keep on trying. They a reall good a speeches and are vary persuasive. Celebrities and music makers are leaders, the reason I say this is because they keep on trying and don't give up.
ReplyDeleteA leader is someone that teaches younger people good things like recycling, not to bully, and to be a leader yourself. So those celebs who teach their fans to do something bad and they actually and get caught like doing drugs or drinking under age they are responsible but think whose fault is it really?
ReplyDeleteMy definition of a leader is someone who is a role model. They try to make others want to be leaders and they try to make you do your best. If you're a leader you won't try to make the other person feel bad or unhappy, that's not what a leader does. Be a leader in your own kind of way!
ReplyDeleteMy definition of a leader is some one who stands up for others. Who defend themselves and even their team, friends, and family. Yes everyone can be a leader no matter how they act. Any one can change the world.
ReplyDeleteMy definition of a leader is someone that can influence someone else's decisions, whether or not they know that they have an effect on someone. I think that they are leaders even though they might not be fully aware of how much their lyrics, scripts, interviews, etc. can influence someone that hears or sees it.
ReplyDeleteI feel people that influence others to do bad things aren't leaders. My definition of a leader is someone that tries to get the best out of others in anything that they do. They can lead by how the act, what they say, or both.
ReplyDeleteI would still them as a leader because a leader is someone who directs people in a way. Although there not good leaders people still seem to follow their ways.
ReplyDeleteMy definition of a leader is someone who guides you in the right direction and someone that you can look up to. I think that some celebrities are leaders, but when they do nice things for more "fame" or attention, I do not think that is a leader.
ReplyDeleteEven if celebrities and music makers do bad things, they are still leaders because they still influence other people that acknowledge what they do in their life. A leader is someone who influences others, that doesn't necessarily mean they influence others in a good way
ReplyDeleteThey still can be a leader in different ways. Leaders make mistakes too. Many leaders have distinctions that make them a good leader. I think that a leader is a person who can lead a group and take control and be responsible.
ReplyDeleteTo me a leader is a person that has good influences for others and do the right things and stay away from the bad. They have good communication skills and stand up for others in difficult situations. Those celebrities are still leader just in a different way. A way that others think is amazing but is actually are bad influences for others.
ReplyDeleteI think that they are still leaders because in war people still are leaders and they are telling the army to do something wrong. My definition is people that can direct other people.
ReplyDeleteMy definition of a leader is someone who takes responsibility of a group and takes responsibility of the situation. There are many leaders in our society, some good, and some bad. Some actors and music makers can be leaders if they do the right things, but many stars today have a bad influence and are not good leaders. Many actors and music makers inspire people to do good things and make change in the world.
ReplyDeleteYes, they are still leader because they are still directing people even if it may be in a negative way. My definition of a leader would be a person who respects others and only influences others in a positive manner. Leaders can influence others by either their actions, words, or both.
ReplyDeleteMy definition of a leader is someone who influences other people decisions and actions. I think that if people are called leaders, but they influence people in a bad way, they are still a leader just not in a positive way. So, to me we can have positive leaders or negative leaders.
ReplyDeleteI believe a leader is someone who helps make someone decisions by their actions or sayings. I think they are leaders even if they don't think it. People influence other people without trying or on purpose.
ReplyDeleteMy definition of a leader is a role model. They do good things that other people want to do. Although, some celebrities just do stupid stuff and think that money can solve the problem. For example, Justin Bieber is probably one of the dumbest singers besides Miley Cyrus. He may have good music but he can't stay out of trouble.
ReplyDeleteMy definition of a leader is someone who helps other to make their decisions, they can influence what they decide with or without realizing it. Leaders show how others should act, even if they are unaware of the affect on others. Most leaders can be a little stubborn to change ideas because they will stand for what they believe in even if their is a "better" way to do it.
ReplyDeleteMy definition of a leader is a person who is willing to made a sacrifice for someone. The person would be willing to help anyone who either does or doesn't ask for help. A leader is the person who is going to standout from the others and be a good role model that others would want to follow in their footsteps. Celebrities who do make bad dissensions are modeling what not do for your future. When they make bad dissensions, I think that they don't realize that they being watched by others. If they wanted to be famous and be a role model, then why would they make that decision? I think they get caught up in the fame so they forget others have them as a role model and want to be like them. So celebrities who are bad leaders, should not even be considered a leader. The only way they are leading others, is in the wrong direction.
ReplyDeleteMy definition of a leader is someone who you find that respects you and you wish to reflect upon their actions. "Leaders" these days are somewhat referred to as idols. Leaders these days are somewhat resemblant to Adolf Hitler or King George III, aside from the murdering and pillaging part. They are put into power for the wrong reasons and make the wrong decisions, yet because of the change in generations, people are beginning to think that this is the new normal.
ReplyDeleteI don't think that they are still considered leaders because if they do harmful things then they can be hurting other people if they are a leader. They will influence people to do harmful things also. I think that a leader is someone who does good things and sets a good example.
ReplyDeleteLeaders are people who direct others, and they are indeed leading people. Be it in a bad way. Whether it's a bad influence or a good one, a leader is a leader. George Washington was the leader of old America, but Adolf Hitler was the leader of the 3rd Reich.
ReplyDeleteMy definition of a leader is someone who leads. They have to lead other people. The leaders have followers. The followers rely on the leaders.
ReplyDeleteI do not think so because they are influenced people to do bad things and things that will get them in trouble. If they are getting them to do things that are helping people. I think that music makers and celebrities are not leaders unless they are getting people to do good things or things that will help people.
ReplyDeleteMy definition of a leader is a role model for all people even little children. When the Celebrity does something wrong the little children will think that they are bad and will not have a role model. But the parents don't want their children to turn out like that.
ReplyDeleteMy definition of a leader is someone who influences positive things. Pop stars influencing bad behaviour I think are not leaders. They try to influence something you probably don't do.
ReplyDeleteThose celebrities aren't leaders in my opinion because they are bad role models, and they do drugs, do bad stuff on the internet, and don't make the right choices. My definition of a leader is someone who influences people in a good way, and people look up to them. Also, they make the right choices and work hard at everything they do.
ReplyDeleteLeaders can be bad or good because they lead people into doing whatever they want.My definition of a leader is leading people to do something good or something bad.People are leaders if they stand up to what they believe even if they stand up to something bad.
ReplyDeleteI don't think that they are leaders because, a leader does the right thing, not bad things. They should be doing the right thing because maybe young kids may be looking up to them and think that it't the right thing to do. A good leader does good things, not bad.
ReplyDeleteMiley Cyrus was never a leader and is not even close to a leader now. A leader is a person who encourages people to do good things and sets an example to do something good.
ReplyDeleteThey wouldn't be leaders they're being a bad influence on others. My definition of a leader is someone who can take charge. Someone who knows when to step in when necessary. Someone who knows when to have fun and be serious.
ReplyDeleteCelebrities and music makers are not leaders because they make money for the things they do and that's not what leaders do.Leaders are people who make a difference in the world.Who help others when they need help or when they just want to do something.Leaders are people who are loyal, kind,honest,and they make the smartest decisions.Leaders don't force others to do things others don't want to do.
ReplyDeleteMy definition of a leader is a person who is respectful and responsible, making them a good person to follow. They lead people to do good things and live good lives. Celebrities and music makers that influence bad things, such as doing drugs and inappropriate actions, are terrible people to follow and mirror. Those celebrities can be leaders, but are neither respectful nor responsible. The people who follow them are people that might get in trouble, go to jail, or even die, all because they did what the celebrities have done and got away with. Given, there are some celebrities that know what they are doing and help the environment or do other positive actions. Those type of celebrities are the type of people that could be good leaders.
ReplyDeleteI don't think they are leaders because they are sending the wrong message. My idea of a leader is a person that cares and leads people in the right direction and helps pave their future.
ReplyDeleteMy definition of a leader is a person who is respectful and responsible making then a good person to follow. They lead people to do good things and live good lives. Celebrities and music makers that influence bad things such as doing drugs and and inappropriate actions, are terrible people to follow and mirror.
ReplyDeleteYes, they are still considered leaders. Not all leaders are good or great, example Barack Obama, he has done good but more bad as president. My definition is someone that leads other to do good and bad things.
ReplyDeleteA leader is some one who is willing to help others with any conflicts in their lives. Many artists themselves might do things that aren't necessarily acceptable. Despite that, there are many clueless people that are stubborn and keep seeing them as their idol. Since artists are so well known, they are looked up by many people. While they do something bad, other people are influenced to do the same. Those people shouldn't be called or thought of leaders.
ReplyDeleteMy definition of a leader is someone who looks out for their team.They also never give up.They are also respectful and responsible.Most leaders would never trade on their team.
ReplyDeleteNo because then the people who adore them usually do what they which can be very bad influences. I mean look at Miley Cyrus she used to be country girl and a hillbilly...and now she just turned into that.
ReplyDeleteI think celebrities and music makers are also considered leaders, but for the wrong reason. Everyone can be a leader, but they might not be a good leader and do good things. Some people follow them and also follow all of their bad decisions, making them a leader.
ReplyDeleteThe celebrities are being a leader, but they are just being a bad influence on the people that are following them. My definition of a leader is a person who is respectful and is responsible. Being a good leader can influence many people and change their lives.
ReplyDeleteJust because you lead people to do things doesn't mean you are a leader. To me a leader is one who leads people to do good and not harm themselves or others.
ReplyDeleteLeader is someone that incharge,rules, or a captain
ReplyDeleteCelebrities are leaders but, they know they are on camera and do bad stuff. A leader is a person who is respectful to whom ever. A leader also is kind and doesn't what any thing back after helping. They do not want attention for what they do.
ReplyDeleteNo because they do the wrong things and they influence us to do the same things they do. My definition of a leader is someone who influences us to do the things that are right.
ReplyDeleteA leader is someone who inspires people. If you want to be a leader yourself, you have to make the right decisions and be responsible. If you do something bad, you might lose your position as being a leader for others. Celebrities and music makers can still be leaders in a certain way but if they make bad decisions, either people will follow on what they are doing or they will not be a leader to many people anymore.
ReplyDeleteAny celebrity can technically be a leader to others, but some choose to be a "leader" in bad or negative way. A leader is someone who can communicate, be a good role model, or much more in a positive way.
ReplyDeleteI don't think they would be good leaders. Yes people might think they are still leaders. A good leaders directs his followers in a good direction. Even if he has to take a bump in the road to do it. Real leaders know what is right and know how to handle the situation in the best way they can. Bad leaders will lead to war,debt and even separation. Without a good leader who knows what would happen? No they would not be a leader in my opinion but maybe to someone else they still are.
ReplyDeleteYes they are still a leader but, they can turn to a follower too. A leader to me is a person who leads others to good reasoning and bad reasoning. Like if you follow Miley Cyrus(i wouldn't) You'll be lead into a life of crime and grossness. If you follow your parents however you have a good chance of following a good path.
ReplyDeleteyes they are cuase just cuase they harm people with words doesnt mea that other people wont like them. They have a right to be leaders and be heard.
ReplyDeleteYes, they are still leaders. They may not be leading something good, but they are leading something. A leader is someone who has any sort of influence on people. There are leaders of things like ISIS. They aren't doing good things but they are still leading people and have a big influence on people.
ReplyDeletea leader should be one with respect to others and not be hurting to others that will harm them in their future that will make a difference to them
ReplyDeleteYes. I think they are still leaders because people still look up to them and still listen to their music. I think a leader is someone who people look up to and follow, and the leader should take responsibility and influence their followers in a good way.
ReplyDeleteIn my eyes they are not leaders, they are leading their fan into the wrong path and decision making. Celebrities usually use their fame as a source of it being okay to follow the wrong path in life. A leader to me a person who people look up to direct them and lead them into a good path in life.
Deleteyes, because they might be mean or just plain old weird but , we have the right to speak things that are on our minds
ReplyDeleteNo, Celebrities ad music makers are not leaders. The reason they are not leaders is because people like what they did or are know for, there popularity, just because people want them to be a leader doesn't mean they will be a good one. A good leader to me is someone who knows what there doing and how to do it and are good influences.
ReplyDeleteYes, even though they are a bad influence, they have a crowd that follows them. A leader is someone who makes decisions on what people do, and the crowd follows them.
ReplyDeleteFamous leaders are not leaders anymore if they do something that is bad or cause a bad influence on others. My definition of a leader is a person that speaks out for others and helps guide them on the right pathway in life.
ReplyDeleteYes, they are still leaders. If they did influence people then that makes them a leader. They went through all the work to become a actor and it is paying off by also helping other people recognize their dream because the actor they are looking up to.
ReplyDeleteYes, they are leaders. They might not be good leaders. But they are still leading others, they might not be leading people to good things but there are still leaders. They can be leaders and can be heard by whom likes them.
ReplyDeleteIt should be a person who knows a lot about where you are and what you are doing so they can help you with what ever you are doing. They should be older. They should know what to do if someone get hurt.
ReplyDeleteYes because there are still people looking up to them and following them and if a person chooses a bad leader that is there fault . My definition of a leader is someone who a person looks up to and trusts them to guide them.
ReplyDeleteI believe there are still leaders because they may not be portraying a good influence, but it is still an influence so I do think that they are still a leader. A leader to me is a role model that influences SOMETHING. It can be good or bad, but they are still influencing.
