Celebrities are role models for some kids
There are several role models available for children. Unfortunately children will often turn to movie stars and tv stars for their role models. Beyonce, Will Smith, and Bill Cosby are just a few of the role models that are common for kids.
Yes , some celebrity role models are good role models although some celebrities should not be looked at as 'role models'. honestly.. do we really want our kids and community acting like some spoiled rich snobs or ones who only care about themselves?. occassionally we do find the odd celeb that can influence us in a positive way.
Dante's Cove is a good gay series, along with some movies such as eating out, shelter, and role play
Straight teenagers grow up with everything done for them. If they have problems they can ask their mums and dads. They see lots of straight movies. There are lots of straight role models for them to imitate. Gay teenagers grow up with nothing like that. They have to keep it secret from their families till they get stronger by themselves. It's very difficult for them to find movies and books with good gay characters. A lot of gay 'role models' on television are stereotypes, mincing and prancing. This does not help young gays. So some gays have to spend a lot of time sorting themselves out. They don't always have trusted friends that they can talk to. It's best if they're not called names and bullied. That doesn't help. Let's hope they grow into strong good people that can be good role models for gays coming after them.
Do people (especially younger people) look up to you? Do they say (to themselves), "You are a good person. I would like to be like you." Young people growing up need good role models, to model themselves on. So, a young boy can model himself on his father, or some other male who he looks up to. Similarly, a young girl will model herself on her mother, or another strong female. A gay teenager can model on his parents for some things, but has to look harder to find good gay role models, to help him or her know how to act to be a good person.

All the footballers are role models in football.
That is a question for the individual child. Athletes have been viewed as role models and some well deservedly so. But it is entirely up to the person who a role model should be and who shouldn't be a role model.
