Bad things of being famous. My point of view. There are a lot of people who would like to be famous.That´s true that famous people have money, big houses, nices cars and whatever they want but they have to pay a high price for that. Often I wonder if these people are truly happy. Here in Spain there are a lot journals dedicaded to chase famous, sometimes they are hounded anywhere, by which they can not walk quiet by the street. It´s normal that journalist invent falses news about famous people and they publish without permission, although there are a stupid people who like see these programs on tv too, by which they are paying their expensives cars, dresses, houses... that´s why the cicle never end. We must erradicate those programs of our tv because there are a lot families without job, even without house and it´s not fair that those hicks are earning around 60.000 euros per month as Belén Esteban, one of the most hick person in Spain. She is only famous because she was married with a bullfighter for one year. I think, " I don´t care what happen to these hicks", but there are people who pays for reading those stupids magazines and they are always watching those stupids tv shows. I don´t belive it, but it´s true. Famous people live from stupid poor people.

Bad things Part of Being Famous. My Point of View.

There are a lot of people who would like to be famous. That's It's true that famous people have money, big houses, nices cars and whatever they want but they have to pay a high price for that. Often I wonder if these people are truly happy. Here in Spain there are a lot journals dedicated to chasing the famous, sometimes they are hounded anywhere everywhere, by which meaning they can not can't even walk quietly by down the street.
It's normal that journalists invent falses news about famous people and they publish them without permission, although there are a stupid people who like to see these programs on TV too, by which they are which helps the famous paying for their expensives cars, their dresses, and houses... that's why the circle never ends.
We must erradicate these programs of from our TVs because there are a lot of families without jobs, even without house homes and it's not fair that these hicks hacks are earning around 60,000 euros per month such as Belén Esteban, one of the most hick person biggest hacks in Spain. She is only famous because she was married with a bullfighter for one a year. 

I tend to think, "I don't care what happen to these hicks hacks", but there are people who pays for to reading those stupids magazines and they are always watching those stupids TV shows. I don't can't believe it, but it's true. Famous people live from exist because of stupid poor people.

 

About hicks/hacks: "Hick" means paleto in Spanish, according to Wiktionary. Are you aware of the stereotype in the US about the South? States like Alabama and Tennessee are supposedly "full of hicks/rednecks" - at least, that's what people in the North say.


A "hack", would be someone who is famous despite producing mediocre work - writers are usually the main target of this word, but it can be used as a disparaging remark for any famous person. I believe this is what you meant.


I made quite a few corrections, but most were rather small - remember that adjectives don't become plural in English, unlike in Spanish. Overall, your English is good, I understood everything and I enjoyed reading it. Poor people are responsible for celebrities' success - very true!
