A pop singer has to work very hard to become popular. He must give the public what they really want and need, or he must find a new way of singing that will attract their attention. Even when he has succeeded and his records are sold everywhere, he can not relax. Then he must work harder than ever to remain popular, because there are always younger singers trying to become famous and to steal some of the popularity.

The life of a successful pop singer isn’t easy at all. He can only relax when he is alone, because everything he does is watched and reported in the special newspaper written for the fans. The fans are the most important people in the world for the singer. They buy his records, they go to his concert, and they make him rich and famous. But they can be very dangerous, too. Sometimes they do anything to get a souvenir（纪念品）. They steal handkerchiefs, they tear off buttons, and they even cut off pieces of the unfortunate singer’s hair. Many singers have been forced to ride（即兴表演）. A pop singer has to pay a lot of money for clothes because he must always look smart and different. And what’s more, he must always keep smiling.
