I think you can avoid this. If you dont want cheerlebrity status dont chase it. My prime example is always Amanda G. Amazing athlete, shuns the spotlight does her thing, gets the praise isnt listed as cheerlebrity. So Im almost positive if its unwanted it can be avoided. IMO
I agree. I think cheerlebrity has to be nurtured to really reach a fervent level. I think it can seem real fun on the way up though... getting recognized, twitter followers, tv shows and magazine articles.. but once at the top I think we see where it leads. I have do understand the desire for attention (the biggest motivator for anyone is peer recognition) but this type of fame and celebrity usually comes with fortune as well. I just don't see the money in it for our sport right now.
