Dear Pakistani Celebs, Only Say Something When You Have Something To Say

Dear Pakistani Celebs, Only Say Something When You Have Something To Say

via https://youtu.be/D4ijrxwnMpk This is not a rant. KARACHI This is not a rant. This is a very humble request to all Pakistani celebrities who we all have immense respect for. Big, small, Hussain or Hocane, Bilal the celebrated film-maker or Bilal the veteran musician, they are the team we have put our bets on. A young country like ours can easily count the number of pop culture icons, heroes, star crushes, and revolutionaries who form our collective nostalgia. Social media can break a façade without the need for any hammers. Fans don’t need to understand where Yasir Hussain is coming from before dumping him and a social media quarantine seems like the only remedy for Ushna Shah’s social media woes. The saddest climax ever is to find out that a number of ‘creative heads’, ‘image consultants’, trustworthy friends, and PR managers are usually consulted before the respective tweet-turned-PR disaster is blamed on social media and bullying. ‘Don’t give in to the trolls, don’t let it get it to you’ and yes the best one, ‘your mental health is more important than a few trolls’ are some of the consolatory pats that celebrities receive as compensation for a PR failure they weren’t solely responsible for. Then there are also the ones who don’t care about the woke standards of PC culture and go out and about like it’s still fun to make a fried chicken joke about black people. Pakistan Ka Showbiz
