Our Five Favorite Celebrity Role Models

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at American chapter.

5. P!ink

Pink is an advocate for being yourself, even if that side is a little off. But hey, she does it with class (unlike Miley). If you are looking to be eccentric, and have fun while doing it, Pink is definitely what you’re looking for. She encourages people to be different and follow their own road, instead of the one that has been paved for them. Her inspiration to “be yourself” has given her the spot of number five on our countdown.

“We American women are very lucky. We do have a lot of rights. We can dress however we want, we can say whatever we want. But I want to see more of that. I want to see more women executives, I want to see more women playing instruments, I want to see more women running magazines and running TV shows. I want to see a woman president in my lifetime.” – Pink

4. Taylor Swift

Although Taylor has had her fair share of publicity, she has handled it well. She does tend to “overdate” but she never let the public get to her. She has given to many charities, and it is obvious that she loves her fans and appreciates them. Taylor has never been caught in a scandal that has made her entertainment’s main headlines. Congrats Tay, you’re number four!

“To me, Fearless is not the absence of fear. It’s not being completely unafraid. To me, Fearless is having fears. Fearless is having doubts. Lots of them. To me, Fearless is living in spite of those things that scare you to death.” – Taylor

3. Emma Watson

Known mostly as Hermione from “Harry Potter,” Emma has grown up with her fans and we have seen her become a great role model for girls. She is intelligent, classy, and seems to know when to stay out of the spotlight. All of these admirable qualities have landed her spot number three on our countdown. Yay, Emma!

“The less you reveal the more people can wonder.” – Emma

 

2. Sandra Bullock

Not only is Sandra a great actress, she is a great role model for woman of any age! She has a stable relationship with the media and has always kept her private life, “private.” She handled herself through her entire career, and all women should look to her as an inspiration. Sandra’s poise and excellent talents as an actress puts her as number two!

“I’ve made mistakes, and I know why I made them, but I made that choice. Nobody’s ever made a choice for me.” – Sandra

1. Jennifer Laurence

Who doesn’t love Jennifer? She is a great role model in every sense of the term. She is an inspiration to women all around the world. She encourages girls to do what they like and that they are beautiful, no matter how different their appearance may be. She is definitely a great role model for every woman out there, earning her number one in our countdown of best celeb role models! 

“I’m never going to starve myself for a part. I don’t want little girls to be like,’oh, I want to look like Katniss, so I’m going to skip dinner.’”- Jennifer
