An unhealthy obsession (着迷)with celebrity(名人) culture is damaging the study success of British students, a survey of teachers found last Friday, with celebrity couple the Beckhams their favorite. Many students are dropping their study to seek the chance of fame instead, the Association of Teachers and Lecturers (ATL) survey found. .Almost two-thirds of teachers said sports stars were the type of celebrity most pupils wanted to copy while more than half of students wanted to be pop stars.
The celebrities students wanted to be most like, the survey said, were Los Angeles-based David and Victoria Beckham, Britain's most famous couple. Soccer player Beckhams topped the poll(民意测验), with more than half the teachers saying their students modeled themselves on him. In second place, with almost a third of the poll's vote, was his 33 year-old wife and pop star Posh.
A majority of teachers said it was television stars and a media fixation with celebrities, celebrity culture that negatively impacted the their pupils. Almost half of the 300 teachers polled said pupils tried to look like or behave like celebrities they most admired. What they feared is that girls particularly dressed in unsuitable.”
We are not surprised about infiltration(渗透) of celebrity culture in schools the teacher Mary Boust  said in a statement. Celebrities can have a positive effect on students. They can raise students' desires and ambitions for the future.
However, celebrity culture can cause the wrong opinion that celebrity status(地位) is the greatest achievement and the belief that other career choices are not valuable.
