#4: Option 1: #AskHerMore

Successful female celebrities are often heavily judged on their personal appearances first rather than their talent. This is expected being that they are in the spotlight 24/7, however it clearly is not an aspect that should solely make up who they are. Unfortunately, even during the events such as award shows-that are meant to be celebrating their accomplishments-the focus still seems to be mainly on their looks. The appearances of these female celebrities should not be the only focal point of their careers, however what should be taken into consideration is that fashion is also an essential in this industry, whether you like it or not.

It is well known that in today's society there is a stress on women and their appearances. There are constantly new unrealistic standards on how females should look everywhere in the media. Whether it be weight, makeup, or the newest fashion trend, it influences females everywhere. With this being said, it is obvious that those celebrities who are in the spotlight are constantly going to be judged. However, these famous people should also be aware that fashion is an important aspect to their career they initially took on along with their celebrity status. 

Fashion is something that plays a role in most careers. Obviously there are the clear careers of being a designer, or a model that most think of when they think of fashion. Although even jobs in business, law, education and more require a certain kind of dress. Most do not think of this aspect when choosing a career but it is a factor to being successful. So imagine how this would affect celebrities and the things they are expected to wear. 

With appearance becoming such a big deal in today's society, the fashion industry has seemed to become an even bigger deal as well. This creates a stronger pressure on celebrities to wear the hottest designer names, and the newest trends. A dress a celebrity would choose to wear on the red carpet can cost thousands of dollars, so why wouldn't you want to brag about it? With fashion being such a big deal, a lot of interviewers want to know what you're wearing. These questions about what people are wearing often occur on the red carpet before any award show. The red carpet is like the runway to show off on, so of course a lot of questions will be about their appearances. Things like the mani-cam are just more creative ways that are meant to be fun to show off the details these stars put into their looks. 

Of course it is also expected that female celebrities are going to feel frustrated when the ONLY thing they are being questioned about is their looks, while men are getting more publicity for their accomplishments. There is a double standard there. I don't think it is meant to be an insult. With all the fashion trends there are in the world, a majority of them seem to cater to women rather than men. Women have more of a variety when it comes to fashion, as well as a stronger pressure to look pretty and I think this is what interests interviewers on why they made the fashion choices they did. 

I do believe interviewers should take into consideration to #AskHerMore because despite fashion being a big factor to any celebrities career, it is not what got them to where they are. It is unfair that men seem to get more recognition for their accomplishments on the red carpet than women do. However, in the society we live in today appearances can unfortunately overtake what is really important. Interviewers should find a balance to compliment celebrities on their appearances and fashion tastes while also addressing their hard work that got them to their success.
