The groupie has existed for a long time and is not exclusive to just a band or singer or entertainer. There are all kinds of groupies, Star Trek groupies and there are constantly bands and singers that always have their groupies that will defend everything about them and they are simply the best etc. etc.

But there is a reality to it that many groupies do not see. The actual person is not what is presented. What IS presented is an illusion and for the person or group of individuals who are a phenomanom it is very hard to actually be themselves. And often their lives are very confused and constantly invaded. If you were to spend time watching the biography channel and see why lies behind these human phenominoms you would see a completely different picture. After all they are just human and are far from the fantacy and presentation.

So you have to ask yourself how much is illusion on your part and how much is real.
Do you have a true picture or are you letting yourself get swept away with a whole illusion? There is no harm in enjoying a presentation of music and some form of art or even ideal. But you have to be careful that you maintain your own identity and separate fact from fiction. And it is not uncommon for people to form groups around certain conditions that they gravitate to, even sports teams and the list is endless.
Entertainment is very healthy and motivational. But it is important to acknowedge the reality verses allowing yourself to be swallowed up by the illusion and presentation of that illusion.

For example many women often base an illusion of the most desirable male mate. For many years it was Cary Grant. His on screen persona was very inviting and appealing. However even Cary Grant wished he could actually be Cary Grant. And many women were disappointed that they never found Cary Grant for a mate and often felt their life was never fulfilled because of that. It reminds me of a friend who's standards were set so high that she still remains single and lonely and often a bit bitter. I can still hear her woes of I wasted my life or my life was not fair or I wanted this and that and never got it, no prince charming and so on and so forth.
And there is such a thing as being over selective and unrealistic about life expectations.

There is nothing wrong with enjoying a presentation or an artist or whatever. As long as you have a life that is realistic.
