Q: Does China lack celebrity culture like in the West?

Obviously China has it's stars, but I don;t get the impression that celebrity culture is as big and blown-up here. I've never seen paparazzi here or heard people chatting about the latest Chinese celeb gossip.

They definitely do, you might just not be aware as they would be about it.

Have you seen a womans mag here?

Anyway who needs celebrity culture in your face everyday, thats what makes the west as degenerate as it has become, worshipping mindless , soulless Part synthetic zombies.

I like being away from all the fake glossy celebrity worship we have in the west.

I think it's merely a matter of time. At some point in the future, they will probably become more obsessed with celebrities.

Are you kidding? All they ever seem to talk about is what the celebreties are wearing, what haircuts they have, etc. Those variety shows are all anyone talks about at work. And have you noticed that half the nationally-sold products have brooding pop singers and their signatures right next to them.

 

I'd say the current set of twenty-somethings is celebrity-obsessed to the extreme.

A:I'll give my two cents on the age part. It's not as easy but can definitely be done. I was 21, fresh out of university and landed my first teaching job in china as a homeroom kindergarten teacher on a pretty standard 20,000/month salary. I'm 1 year in now and am still happy. Pretty much all international kindergarten jobs on here want 2 years experience, but many will still accept if you have experience in your home country. With that being said, being white and having a nice looking face is much more of a decision factor in china vs the west, if you can- use it to your advantage. Good luck finding something! -- brinsleym
