Jenna Ortega Lights up the Tabloids in a Smoking Controversy

Actress Jenna Ortega has once again singlehandedly captured the attention of everyone with the release of one clip. Unlike the viral Wednesday dance video, a dance from the character of Wednesday Addams played by Jenna, this clip created a serious discussion on smoking, a ‘vice’ in some places in the society.

The public has not been shy with their reactions while others have been supportive of free will. The video shows Ortega smoking outside with a friend in London. She is dressed in a casual outfit, grey pants and a black sweater with her hair in a messy cute bun.

The video has been super controversial as Ortega is a role model to most young girls ever since her debut in Disney, Stuck in the Middle. A role she embodied of Harley Diaz, a genius child who uses her unique point of view to help her become seen in her family where she has 6 siblings.

The video is trending on both Twitter and TikTok. She has definitely matured and even though people respect that, she serves as a reminder that, despite how influential a celebrity is, they are not always the best examples to follow.

The calling out and shaming of the actress smoking the cigarette has escalated to something much greater like delving into the why. Some are wondering if it’s because if stress and if it’s something that she could talk about with someone. Others are brushing the entire incident off saying she is in London for a movie and she was just shooting a scene where the role required her to smoke.

It all trickles down to how fans or the social media as a whole should start to humanize celebrities and create a more positive attitude towards them rather than shame them. It’s true, she is an adult and entitled to individual preferences and social expectations but for celebrities it’s clearly different.

The smoking episode has indeed caused a brief frenzy a reminder that the power that celebrities have and the difficulties they encounter in the world of fame is hard to deal with. Celebrities like Jenna Ortega are frequently held to a higher standard since they are powerful people; it’s hard to have a normal life. How she will explain this, no one knows.

Additionally, the smoking controversy presents a chance to talk about more general public health concerns which is seen from the various comments “Why would she do this to herself!” “Oh no, she smokes!!!? I don’t think that’s a cigarette, but if it is I just hope she knows what she is doing.”

The debate as to whether the 20 year old actress is on the wrong or not is an endless conversation that most people are not willing to let go, the need to promote a healthier lifestyle may seem to overpower the need to exercise self-satisfaction. Ortega is all grown up, a fact that people need to accept, if she decides to come out, fine, if not, it is equally her own choice not to. After all its her choice to begin with.
