            The sources listed below are sources in which I used to help create a paper where I ask questions about my topic. My main topic is how celebrities affect the American teens of today. As I looked deeper into the stakeholders involved in each source, I hope to get across their purposes and answer all the questions that each source may lead to.

1.      1. Bush, AJ, CA Martin, and VD Bush. "Sports Celebrity Influence on the Behavioral Intentions of Generation Y." Journal of Advertising Research, 2004 MAR, Vol.44(1), P.108-118, 44.1 (2004): 108-118.

·         The stakeholders in this source are the athletes that get the endorsements, the people that endorse these athletes, the parents and the teens that pay for these things endorsed by the athletes. All of these people are the stakeholders because they all end up being affected by the other. The teens are affected because they won’t want to buy the things if the athletes aren’t endorsing it. This then lowers the amount of money made by the companies which then lessens the amount of money made by the athletes. 

2.      "Do Role Models Influence Teenagers’ Purchase Intentions and Behavior?." Journal of Consumer Marketing, 2000, Vol.17(5), P.441-453, 17.5 (2000): 441-453.

·         This source is basically the same as source 1. It is just another source that can be used to back up the idea.

 
3.      "Gangs: Keep Out! Three Teens Tell Why Gangs Are on the Rise and What You Can Do to Stay Safe.(News Special)." Junior Scholastic, Nov 26, 2007, Vol.110(8), P.6(7), 110.8 (2007): 6.

·         The stakeholders within this source are the people that join he gangs, gang members, the people that are affected by gun violence, celebrities that talk about being in gangs, and the community that gangs survive in. they are stakeholders because all of the people are intertwined. First there are gangs in the community, then at some point rappers are part of gangs, and promote these gangs which makes other people want to join these gangs. This means more gang violence because there are more people joining different gangs that go against each other. This means more people suffering from the lost f lost 1s and feeling the pain of their deaths or serious injuries.

4.      Penny, Laurie, and Penny. "Smile Till It Hurts: Generation Y Have Been Brought Up on the Fantasies of Neoliberalism.(Essay)." Soundings, Summer, 2010, Issue 45, P.136(13), 45 (2010): 136.

·         In this source, the stakeholders are the people that read these stories and what to be like these fairytales. This is because the people are living in a fantasy hoping that their lives will be like a fairytales, as the celebrities do in movies, or in books. 

5.      Read, Barbara. "Britney, Beyoncé, and Me - Primary School Girls' Role Models and Constructions of the 'Popular' Girl." Gender & Education, 23.1 (2011): 1-13.

·         This source’s stakeholders are teens and children that celebrities and the celebrities. This is because the children and teens that look up to these celebrities for certain reasons and this makes the children want to dress like the celebrities, but this is a cycle. While the celebritie3s make things popular, we as the judge3s can chose who to idolize more and why. 

6.      "Should Celebrities Be Looked Upon as Role Models? (African American Celebrities) (Cover Story)." Jet, April 27, 1992, Vol.82(1), P.16(4), 82.1 (1992): 16

·         The stakeholders in this source are the celebrities, their parents, and other parents that do good things. They are stakeholders because the celebrities look up to not only older celebrities, but their own parents. It shows that celebrities believe that the real role models are people that helped to feed and clothe them. This then makes the celebrities look up to the people that do this on the daily bas3s.l its makes them look u to people that do what they have to in order to make money, feed, and di fir their young.
