Beginnings of Beth's Babble

Why Beth's Babble?
Hey everyone! My name is Beth Cefalu and this is Beth’s Babble. In other words, it’s my celebrity blog I created so I can share my own recaps of the celebrity world and all the gossip that goes along with it. Growing up all I knew was that whatever career I chose needed to be one that would keep me on my feet. A 9-5 desk job certainly wouldn’t be the ideal life for me; it would be more like HELL! I have always been an extremely outgoing, social, and driven student. After years of careful consideration *bam* it hit me! Broadcasting!

Why Broadcasting?
I believe that broadcast journalism is an unremarkable field that’s constantly changing and I would love to be apart of the forever-growing entity that is media. To be a TV broadcaster to me would be such an amazing career because I would have the power to converse to millions of people. Depending on which field I chose, I could communicate and stress important issues or even help inspire my audience on a daily basis. What more of a gregarious career could I choose than one where I would be required to be on my feet to keep up with the daily changes and curve balls that I am thriving for? Media is a means of communication to converse information and influence a wide range of people. It is the basis which links individuals or groups to their societies to make sense of everyday life. I really thought to myself and realized that by being a broadcaster I would be able to directly link myself to people all over the country and have a chance to make a difference.

Why Celebrity Gossip?
Now that I narrowed it down to a career I had but only one thing left! That is, my choice of broadcast genre. The choice of Celebrity Gossip was an almost impulse decision following broadcasting. There is nothing more fascinating to me than culture itself. As a student I can only afford so much traveling but whenever I did it was outside the US. All I wanted was to explore different cultures and civilizations other than the one I am accustomed to. My original major even before I chose broadcasting was Spanish because I truly enjoyed learning the culture in and out. To be able to follow and discuss not only the most successful people in the country but some of the most talented that are shaping our culture on a daily basis would be and incredible opportunity. Celebrities have such an amazing grasp over societies and regularly have a strong influence on anything they come into contact with. They live such fast paced lives that we cannot even attempt to dream about, but I am certainly up for the challenge of exploring all it has to offer. There is always something new occurring with constant drama to follow. My perfect career would be one where I would be constantly faced with new challenges everyday and Celebrity Gossip is certainly that! I am absolutely fascinated by this and all that celebrities stand for which is why I know that I would love and be most successful in this genre of broadcasting!
