The Secret Lives of Celebrities:
Invasion of Privacy
By Robert Smith
Imagine waking up with the flashes of cameras engulfing you in their radiance. Imagine being pestered with questions regarding your personal life. Imagine having to tolerate this day by day with little sympathy directed at you. Repetition of 'imagine' is a bit of a cliché. This may be a good technique for a B/C student but can't you think of anything more original?
Is this your ideal life? Your status and prestige can place cumbersome loads of pressure, where you are bombarded with even the most fatuous questions and comments. Getting the feeling that you've overused the thesaurus here. This is the typical life of a celebrity. No worries, no hassle, no imperfection. If only. You have changed to a very conversational tone, contradicting your fancy language used previously. Consistency of tone shows that you know your audience.
Celebrities have to tolerate this madness of which some have been driven to the point of insanity: Grammar here is a bit funny. How about
Celebrities have to tolerate this madness, some of whom have even been driven to the point of insanity. do they really deserve this? Although, to some, it may seem that these renowned figures have provoked these dire consequences, How exactly have they provoked it? This isn't explained enough to make a thorough point their privacy should be revered and respected - not destroyed or slandered.
Moreover, I Don't refer to yourself as I EVER. Try to use 'it is clear that...' or similar. feel it is depraved Not sure about the use of 'depraved' here... to peer into the private lives of others so why do this to celebrities? Do they not deserve the same rights as you? Good, the accusatory tone evokes guilt in the reader.
In fact, 93% of celebrities Good use of statistics agreed that thy they? were excessively intruded by a barrage of comments 'Barrage' is good, but then 'comments' makes it sound like it's not such a big deal. from the moment they left their house! And albeit 83% of the people surveyed felt that this was not an issue to dwell over (since it provided them with a sense of "belonging"), it is still an invasion of privacy. Expand on this, the counterargument is very strong so you need to make a stronger statement in return.
Furthermore, TV icon Cheryl Cole once exclaimed that it was like "being under the surveillance of a CCTV camera 24/7." This quote summaries the severity of the issue. Nobody, including I or You or They, should ever have to lead a lifestyle rendered despondent or melancholy by those in your Your? Are you talking about people in the reader's proximity or in the celebrities? This needs to be clearer proximity. An invasion of privacy is a form of bullying. It should not be tolerated.
I've made quite a few suggestions. I also think that you need to look at length (I assume this isn't finished) and structure. This could be achieved by better planning. Make a list of three points that you can really explain and expand on. Each point should be a paragraph and each paragraph should contain a small counterargument. Anything you say in the counterargument needs to have an incredibly strong argument to blow it out of the water. You need to have a strong conclusion at the end. The use of the one-sentence paragraph as a technique is fine, but only used once, and the other paragraphs need to be a lot longer and more developed. Also, read through your work and consider whether it's clear who you're referring to if you say "they" or "you"...
