Social media and participatory culture: Users employed by celebrities on various social media platforms through memes, videos and opinions.

What am I studying?
Social media is a place where debates, videos, jokes, music and almost anything that is going on in the world is shared on various platforms. Each platform does it’s respective jobs to keep money coming in for celebrities because the consumers are the ones that pay their bills. Each time we share a song on our SoundCloud pages, like a photo on Instagram, tweet a lyric, or share an article, wacky video or meme on Facebook, or even listen to their music on Spotify, we are increasingly raising their stalk. This project will specifically analyze how as social media users, we are paying celebrities’ bills.
