Elena Basescu Runs In English Election
References: europeanelections2009.rfi.fr & luxist
Elena Basescu is Romania’s answer to Paris Hilton. The President’s daughter/model/socialite is known for her partying, but is now running for European Parliament.
The 28-year-old daughter of Romanian President Traian Basescu has decided to run in the upcoming elections. I bet at least Paris Hilton would think that’s hot.
Implications - The over-shared, constantly communicated world of today has made it so that anyone can become a celebrity. Thus, the lines of fame and fortune are blurred, with many "celebrities" crossing into completely unexpected, slightly confusing industries. Essentially, this development is breeding an array of double, triple and quadruple-threat celebrities that have enough fans and money to enter almost any industry at any point.
