Shaista Wahidi Addresses The On Going Controversies

Finally Shaista Wahidi decided to come out of the closet and address the issue of all the on going rumors about her private life, including the divorce and the affair, in her morning show. Dr. Shaista uploaded the video on her facebook page as well, which shows that she wants to send the message across to everyone. She did not tell her fans exactly what is going on in her private life because she does not think that it is something that she needs to share with her fans. This raises a very important question; do celebrities have the right to lash out on public like this? There is a price that every celebrity must pay for fame and stardom, they get paid triple the amount that any normal worker would and they get fame like no one else does and the price they have to pay for it in return is that they become “public” figures, which means that the public wants to know and have a say about everything that is going on in their life.Dr. Shaista said the rumors are having a negative effect on her personal life, that is very understandable but when she entered the field she should have known that people who are famous do get involved in controversies and people do gossip about them because there is a natural fascination and curiosity attached to these people. But most celebrities want their piece of cake and eat it too. They only want the fame and fortune with no strings attached.

A celebrity must know how to take the good with the bad, she was right in addressing the issue but the way she did it was wrong. She should have requested the people nicely to stop spreading “rumors” about her. If she is really divorced, she should tell the public, there is nothing wrong with that and people have a right to know. Until she confirms her divorce, people will keep on guessing and spreading rumors. It is very natural to be curious about someone who you see on your TV screen everyday.

We wish Dr. Shaista all the best but also wish that she would have addressed the issue in a better way.
