What is Gossip about?

In today's society, we gossip everywhere, from music to the news. Everybody is involved, talking to other people about everything. When people gossip, it affects how people learn about what actually happens in an event, or with another person.

Gossip can ruin a person's life or make it better. For instance, what is being said about celebrities everywhere around the world, like Britney Spears. Once she had a breakdown everyone had different thoughts about her. This gossip has ruined her life and pop-music career.

Gossip also has helped several people. But it has a negative effect on people. It makes their ego grow so the person thinks they can do anything. Once a DMX stunt man can do a trick they try to do it again and tell one person. Then the person they told tells other people but exaggerates the trick to the point of "Oh, My God, he did not do that. That is crazy for anyone to try to do." The person who started it now believes what everybody else says. Gossip can destroy and create what we didn't do. Don't be a part of it.
