Rockstar.....!!!

Its a very "cliched" term nowadays. You have random country bumpkins on various reality shows stepping up and saying "i wanna be a rockstar" and you have graffiti on various benches in my school saying "Rockstars of KRMM" , i'm like "HELLO PEOPLE DO YOU EVEN KNOW WHAT ROCK MUSIC IS?"

Just because somebody sings well, just because somebody dresses well, or just because somebody's pretty, it doesnt make her/him a rockstar.
Just like a true sportsman, a true rockstar lies in her/his attitude. You can have a girl who's a total country bumpkin, has no knowledge on english music whatsoever, and thinks that himmesh reshammiya is a brilliant singer (and is constantly humming "mann ka radio"), she can still be a rockstar cause at the end of the day, it narrows down to her attitude. Its how she takes failures in her strides. Its about how she doesn't let things get her down. Its about how she loves and believes in herself no matter what. Its about how she knows shes not keeping up with the latest trends but it still doesn't bother her. Cause she's just happy being herself and rocks out having a good time, doing whatever she loves doing.

On the other hand, you can take this guy who's brilliant at playing the electric guitar, painstakingly keeps up with the latest trends, shamelessly flaunts his Levis socks and red converse sneakers, and considers girls "below" him as he's supposedly a "guitar god". Hello hello, thats not being a rockstar, thats just being a plain prick...!!
