SOLUTION
Regardless of whether Lindsay Lohan is back in rehab, Tom Cruise has a hangnail, or a Teen Mom starts dancing with the stars, our obsession with celebrity and fame is pushing real news out of the spotlight. In this project, I took the visual language of tabloid publications to subvert the messages they are shouting at us: obsessing about the glamorous life is overrated.
