Ghafla Tuesday: 3 celebrities that have rebuked social media beggars

Everyone has a different perception of who and what celebrities are. To some, they are mini-gods and are meant to be worshiped. Some think of them as regulators, that is they regulate what the social life should be like. Some others see them as humans just like every other person. Whilst some assume them as benefactors, philanthropist, and charity workers.

Because celebrities dwell on the limelight they are excused to be larger than life. Due to the exaggerated life they live, some mistake it as real. So they go on to them for help, believing they can put an end to their problems. But it does not happen that way, they can help some people not everybody. Some celebrities have come out to address this issue in recent times. Below are three celebrities that have rebuked social media beggars
