Immunity To Drugs

After planning and drafting my paper for a little over a week now, I have garnered even more insight from Jay-Z's "Hollywood" as I found myself looking at this tainted town through his eyes. In his song he raps, "Born in Brooklyn got a place in Manhattan, going back to Brooklyn to escape the madness. When your friends is Chris and Gwyneth, when your girl is more famous then you then is". This line opened my eyes and made me realize that not all celebrities are brainwashed by the Hollywood lifestyle that they are submerged in. Stars like Jay-Z often leaves this world to go back to the place where he can get a peace of mind. This peace of mind allows him to function with a leveled head and not become morphed into a vain shell of himself. This leads me to believe that some are simply immune to this drug called Hollywood. The California Dream, which consists of relaxation and no worries, that leads hopefuls to the town of Hollywood does not affect only a small portion of people. These people are able to block of the addictive aspects of the Hollywood lifestyle and make decisions that will benefit them in the long run.
