America’s Sweetheart: Then and Now

Every generation strives to leave its mark upon the world and if, in the process, they can shake up the old generations, all the better.  In the process though, what is lost?  In the case of whom they aspire to adore and promote and emulate?  there is MUCH to be lost. Take my above example—Doris Day versus Taylor Swift. 

Doris is wholesome…

Taylor is loathsome…

Doris’s style is iconic…

Whereas Taylor’s is demonic…

Doris loves animals…

Taylor dates animals…

Now I’m sure Doris has her off days like the rest of us, but she was genuinely loved and revered.  Taylor, on the other hand, uses the men she dates as future song fodder and nothing more.  She is self-centered and spoiled and she could really learn a thing or two from watching Doris.
