Celebrity interviews have undergone a transformation in the age of social media and YouTube, evolving from revered discussions on popular entertainment channels to often cringe-worthy content. The advent of YouTube channels has exacerbated this shift, with some interviewers engaging in frivolous conversations with individuals who have gained popularity through social media.
Recently, a YouTube channel invited Vasantha Krishnan, known for her stint on Bigg Boss, and her husband for a Valentine's Day special. However, the interview took an inappropriate turn, featuring games and acts that received criticism on social media. One instance involved the couple feeding each other grapes, leaving many viewers disapproving of the content.
This departure from the traditional, more dignified approach to talk shows and interviews has generated widespread disapproval. Even established stars are not immune to the discomfort caused by these interviews, prompting netizens to question the interviewers' approach. Many are expressing frustration and concern over the questionable direction that celebrity interviews have taken, with calls for a return to more respectful and meaningful conversations.
The incident with Vasantha Krishnan and her husband serves as a stark example of the need to re- evaluate the standards and ethics surrounding celebrity interviews in the contemporary media landscape.
