All pretty young things get engaged. Cardi B a married and she is 25 years old. Her husband, Offset, a third of Migos, is 26 years old. This summer, Ariana Grande and Pete Davidson, 25 and 24, respectively, invited a ton of attention with their seemingly sudden engagement. Before them, Sophie Turner, 22, and Joe Jonas, 28, announced their commitment. Miley Cyrus, 25, and Liam Hemsworth, 28, were engaged – for the second time – since 2016. On Saturday, Justin Bieber, 24, proposed wedding to Hailey Baldwin, 21. Wherever you look, our most famous youngsters exchange big rings that honk.
The stars are like us in many ways, but it's a blatant exception. As all Americans get married later and later, the median age of the US Women's Union in 1960 was 20 years old; today, there are 27 celebrities who continue to flock to the altar. Or, at least, they plan on. The path of fame is littered with broken commitments – from Julia Roberts to 23 and Kiefer Sutherland to 24 Katie Holmes to 25 and Chris Klein at 24-so take those diamonds with grains of salt and all that. But even with a culture full of jokes about short-lived celebrity weddings, young and famous people keep hope alive, even though their compatriots – only 50 percent of Americans married in 2017 – continue to procrastinate or to avoid it entirely. Are these celebrities our best example of love and commitment? Could the Hon. American Justin Bieber make the wedding cool ? Bieber, who says of his recent commitment, "GONNA would be better at 70 BABY HERE WE GO!" And see biblical numerology in its proposal?
Everything would seem to work against a person with so much name recognition doing that kind of promise early in their life. Pre-nups are a real pain. The antecedents of those who came before are not stellar. (Did the lightning marriages of Kim Kardashian and Britney Spears teach them anything?) What about the number of people lining up just for like?
Factors that would seem to work against a plebian match might actually work for the early involvement of a celebrity. Most obviously: early success. Cardi B recently declared GQ that one of the reasons she wanted to get married was that Offset held her responsible in the studio and that she shared information about the industry. the music. Met with sudden and overwhelming success, she took a person who could help navigate. "It's like we're helping each other become adults," she told the magazine. (They were secretly married at the time, having tied the knot in September of last year.)
The rapper also lived a thousand lives. She entered the workforce at age 19 as an exotic dancer, where she stayed for four years, participated in a reality show for a year and achieved social media fame for three years before "Bodak Yellow "& # 39; 17. Elsewhere, in the pop-phenom years, Bieber is 52 years old. Braun Scooter discovered Bieber in 2008, when he was 13 years old, and he was a household name of 15. The Grande chronology is similar. She was on Broadway at age 15, then Nickelodeon, and then Braun first signed it in 2013. Her fiancé, Davidson, began her stand-up career at age 16, before becoming the first one. one of the youngest members of the group . Night Live.
If regular Americans were so successful, we could get on too. Single adult Americans who say they are ready to marry say that the first obstacle to settlement is lack of financial stability. The financial stability of the Biebers and Grandes of the world, so that the barrier to entry is lower. They own a house, usually multiple. Although their jobs make them look hectic, they are set in a very traditional way.
And it is possible that these stars have something in common with ordinary people who marry early: religion. Bieber and Baldwin are evangelical Christians, a group way more likely to marry young. And the announcement of Bieber on Instagram clearly shows that evangelical values were part of their decision. It reads, "I promise to lead our family with honor and integrity by letting Jesus lead by His Holy Spirit in everything we do and every decision we make. My heart is entirely and entirely yours and I will ALWAYS put you first! You are the love of my life Hailey Baldwin and I would not want to spend it with someone else. You make me so much better and we compliment each other so well [sic]! I can not wait for the best season of life! It's funny because now everything seems to make sense! "
And:" What excites me the most is that my little brother and sister can see another stable and healthy marriage and look for the same thing !!! "[19659012] And also:" The timing of the gods is literally perfect, we got engaged on the seventh day of the seventh month, the number seven is the number of spiritual perfection, that's true GOOGLE IT! Is not it crazy? By the way, I have not planned this, anyway My God feels good to have our future assured! "
And in addition to that:" One who finds a woman finds a good thing and gets the favor of the Lord! "It's the year of favor !!!!"
While the church's line to marriage is less manifest with others, they each have a religion, largely Catholic type. Remember the true hatred of Great for demons, and the immortal words of Cardi : "I do not tell people what religion to practice, so do not come and tell me my God and Jesus Christ ain
None of this fully explains the boom in engagement we see in this children's demo. It's personal. They are in love. The industrial wedding complex attracts even the stars. Perhaps this attracts especially the stars, who have the funds and staff to organize a spectacular party, and that alone seem to keep afloat the pear industry. And you do not have to look closely to see that the celebrity is lonely. Must be nice to have a trusted partner through all of this.
We can make fun of their young head sprint heads towards a lifetime commitment with their little spry legs. We can take bets on how long it will last, and make informed assumptions about whether one of them will really go to the end. But watch them bring back the marriage of the twenties.
