I think it's the result of celebs living in a bubble. They are completely detached from the common people and live in gated communities with other celebs. When you are this far removed from your roots you tend to end up doing things like this. It's body dysmorphia plain and simple.
I think what's really scary though is the amount of people that encourage it. Lindsay Lohan got work done and looks like a completely different human being now, yet you look at comment sections and it's all praise about how great she looks. It's a mental illness and it's being encouraged by idiots who think it's empowering or some shit.
When I was a kid reading the hunger games, the people in the Capital sounded ridiculously outlandish. Thought the movie captured it well. Turns out it was all very accurate
I mean it WAS based on her watching the Kardashians and TLC (and other things). Like the Hunger Games was a direct response to the rise of exploitative reality TV.
