Elites vs. The World

The Stardoll "elites" have been the site's most controversial figures for over three years. Their creative projects, famewhoring ways, their links with other prominent figures of Dollywood have propelled them to virtual superstardom within a matter of months, and, still, years after their heyday, they manage to capture our attention with their laughable antics.

The attention they receive from their fellow Stardollians certainly gives them a sense of superiority, the conviction that they have the right to scorn the "commoners", something that is bound to cause a mixed reaction from them. Of course, there are the loyal admirers, those hopeless romantics who hope for some sort of sign. But, my friend, in this pixelated world of ours, there is not much room for genuine admiration and selfless cordiality. Because amongst us, in the depths of Stardoll obscurity, exist the vilest of creatures. 

Jealousy is a bad thing. Especially on Stardoll, where one can become whoever they desire just by saying so, without having anyone question the validity of such grandiose statements. Naturally, people will be jealous of the blonde, alleged heiress living in Miami who also happens to follow the same lifestyle in her virtual life. Hatred is easily propagated on the Internet, let alone on a website that essentially proves that the seemingly richest, most attractive person will preponderate. 

The Stardoll Burnbooks, a laughable parody of the iconic homonymous pink book from Mean Girls, have proved to be not only unoriginal, but also plain dumb, forgettable and unfortunate pages of the Stardoll History book. Usually, people who aim to put "elites" back into their place, end up respected "elites" themselves, best friends of the people they so desperately tried to distance themselves from (Ahem.), while others are driven by the immense desire to become, themselves, the people they so strongly criticize. Even some of the "well-written, well-thought, well-executed" blogs against the high and mighty "elites" are filled with wry and bilious comments that reinforce the perception that their owners are, quite simply, jealous.

While I, myself, have no respect or admiration whatsoever for the "elite" of the Stardoll world, I would never waste my precious time into something that so blatantly displays my hypocrisy. 

Let's all concede that we'd love to become those we love to hate.
