The story of Claudia and her stalker

Cynthia Marvey, Carol Styles, Julia Peters, Betty Waters are the four members joining the new idol group…

Claudia read through the news article titled <New female idol group from DIOS Management … but where is Claudia Black?>. Her name wasn’t there. She read it again, but nothing changed. Her eyes started to tremble, and started to look through all the replies written by the public about this news.

“Why isn’t she still makin’ a debut? We should blow up the management company”
“I think she’z the top-class singer of our country”
“Does she have any troubles w/ her management?”

Yes, it was not only Claudia who was angered about this, but also the crowd. In fact, it was not the first time; every time DIOS Management launched a new idol group, Claudia was not included, although everyone thought Claudia is the one who really should be. As you would have already noticed, Claudia Black is the idol singer trainee of the DIOS Management, the biggest singer management company of United States. She is very hardworking and talented; she is good at singing, rapping, and also dancing. This is her seventh year as a trainee even though her talent has already surpassed many other professional singers who have high reputation. You cannot imagine how much effort she put to make a debut as a singer over the past seven years – she hasn’t still graduated from her high school even though she is already 22 years old!

Claudia is still positive. She thinks that the reason why she fails every year is because she is not talented enough, and believes that she can make it one day if she tries harder and harder. There are many fans who are supporting her, and their existence as the advocates of Claudia is the reason why she never gives up and keeps up her hard work. However, she has one trouble in her life that stresses her out; the stalker who knows everything about her. His name is John Ogleberry. He knows literally everything about Claudia; what time she gets up every morning, how many minutes it takes for Claudia to take a shower, how many hours Claudia practices each day, what kind of food she eats every meal, and so on. Claudia tried to sue John several times, but since she knows that it takes too much time to go through all the process that she might lose her time to practice, she hasn’t done it yet. Well, she might hasn’t done it yet because she knows that John is also one of her fans that supports her.

John was infuriated by this news. He decided to figure out what is wrong with Claudia and the DIOS. She sneaks into the company, looks for all the files about the record of Claudia, hacks the company’s computer, etc.
He could find nothing.

He then went through all the Facebook posts written by the CEO and the faculties of this company. It was certainly a tedious job; he had to read all those stupid posts and pictures from ten years ago.
Finally, he found something. He was shocked. He felt his body trembling.

In the status quo, people complain about the lookism that is so common in our society. People tend to judge each other with their appearance, and good-looking people are more likely to get employed. To solve the "lookism phenomena," blind auditions, blind interviews, and many other methods that respect a person's aptitude and talent more than the appearance in employment process these days. As a result, more people with high ability and intelligence are now working in many jobs. I, however, think that the person's appearance should still be the most important factor the judge a person in employment.
Nowadays, except certain disabled people, we live in a society where we should face each other. It is natural for people to look others' face foremost than other parts. And their appearance decides their "first impression." To modify this impression which is formed in an instant, it needs more than 40 hours. That's why first impression is important and YOUR appearance forms it.
People’s appearance not only affects people’s first impression but also the quality of life of people around them. I would rather work with pretty woman with dumb head than the woman with ugly face with intelligence. I do not want to spend eight hours a day with a face that I don’t want to look at, at all. It deteriorates my quality of life.
Feel offended? Look at yourself standing in front of a mirror choosing which perfume to use and which clothes to wear. See, our eyes are already focusing on your appearance. Let's take it more seriously. In this industrialized society, tertiary sector outnumbers other jobs. TO be successful on communicating with one's clients, good first impression contributes a lot.
Let's trace back to past years. The standard of beauty has been altered all the time, but the term ‘beauty’ has existed. Men competed each other for beauty, of beauties got to choose their spouse and spend rest of their life happily. However, for those who weren't, it was a bit harsh. Anyway, there are no absolute value as beauty when judging others.

Do you see how the CEO is stained with the lookism?
Do you now see why the CEO did not allow Claudia to make a debut over the past seven years?

John decided to reveal this post to the public. The entire crowd was enraged. The protest in front of DIOS Management building took place every day, led by John Ogleberry. The CEO was fairly offended by John’s actions, but could not do anything because it is the nonchanging fact he uploaded that ridiculous post that can offend numerous people. He could not bear all the criticism, and left his office. People recommended John as a new CEO of DIOS Management. Eventually, John took over the company and became a new president of the company where Claudia is working with. An irritating stalker who sneaked into an idol trainee’s house becoming a president of that trainee’s company…! Quite Amazing!

John decided to change people’s mindset about the appearance inside the company. There were hundreds of talented trainees that were not allowed to make a debut just because the previous CEO extremely favored pretty girls. John actively helped them, including Claudia, to make a successful debut with their brilliant ability. On the other hand, there were many singers that have already made a debut but was not quite talented. John tried to improve their capability rather than applying more and more plastic surgeries. DIOS finally acquired a reputation as a most sensible and rational management company in the country, and what happened to Claudia?


She became the singer who is staying at the top of the Billboard Chart for the longest time!
