What's The Difference Between An (A-List) Celebrity And A (B-List) Celebrity?
Generally, celebrities are famous people who are recognized for the things they do or have done. They could be movie stars, singers, international sports stars and models as well as socialites. Even so, they are not all categorized the same, hence the existence of A-list and B-list celebrities. Here are the differences between the two.
Fame
An A-list celebrity wallows in international fame. Countless people all over the world know them by their name and face. If, for instance, they are actors, they have many box-office hits. Their name is enough to promote their films successfully. Examples of A-list celebrities include Will Smith and Angelina Jolie.
On the other hand, a B-list celebrity is not as famous as an A-list one, but they are pretty recognizable. They have had less success in their careers. If they are in the film industry, they land the roles of supporting actors and actresses. Good examples of B-list celebrities are Katherine Heigl and Chadwick Boseman.
Accountability
A-list and B-list celebrities do not have the same level of accountability. While an A-list celebrity must be held responsible for their actions, they are not expected to be as accountable as B-list celebrities. That is why, for instance, many fans were ready to forgive Chris Brown, an A-list pop star, after he physically assaulted his now ex-girlfriend Rihanna. People think that A-list celebrity talents matter more and are ready to overlook their bad behavior.
There. Now you can easily tell the difference between A-list and B-list celebrities.
