William of course, would be attracted to her wherever they met, and that is ultimately another barrier in their relationship. The fact that Williams worships Anna is obvious throughout the film, and this is another problem with the longevity of their relationship. His friend Max is right when he says, "Let's face facts. This was always a no-go situation. Anna's a goddess and you know what happens to mortals who get involved with the gods" (Notting Hill). Indeed, Anna is somewhat of a modern goddess, and it is hard to figure out why she would settle for a "mere mortal." This dooms their relationship for a number of reasons. First, William has her on a pedestal, and no one can live up to that pressure day after day, year after year. Eventually she will fall off the pedestal, and then she may not be as appealing to him. As author Roiphe notes, "Those euphoric, grand feelings that accompany romantic love are really self-delusions, self-hypnotic dreams that enable us to forge a relationship. Real life, failure at work, disappointments, exhaustion, bad smells, band colds and hard times all puncture the dream" (Roiphe). Because Anna is such a well-known star, William has expectations about her even before he meets her. She is larger than life, and so, he has even more euphoric feelings about her. As they sleep together, he is overwhelmed. He says, "It still strikes me as, well, surreal, that I'm allowed to see you naked" (Notting Hill). That may be well and good for early romance, but if he still...
She does not worship him, she simply is attracted to him, and so the attraction is lopsided and uneven. If he does not live up to her standards, she may leave, while he will be disillusioned and devastated. A true relationship should be equal, she is too much of a star to be his equal, and even he acknowledges that.

The connotation of "tabloid" was soon applied to other small items and to the "compressed" journalism that condensed stories into a simplified, easily-absorbed format (Eva, 2010). A tabloid is often a weekly or semi-weekly alternative newspaper that focuses on local interest stories and entertainment, sometimes distributed free of charge, or a newspaper that tends to emphasize sensational crime stories, gossip columns repeating scandalous innuendos about the personal lives of celebrities
Image Copyright Intellectual property laws are the subject of much debate. Indeed, some people feel as if the ability to use another person's photo or likeness without payment or other remuneration should be allowed and free while the law itself basically bans such a practice unless such uninhibited usage is granted in advance. As with most things, there is a middle ground between the two that could and should be sought
In conjunction with these car ads, car insurance companies took advantage of this by advertising their services as well. Car insurance companies that I noticed advertising through billboards were Safeco, Progressive, and All State. Progressive provided a catchy and positive note to its ad by having the slogan, "Happy drivers make good drivers." From what I can recall in the All State ad, it mentioned something about safe driving, again

"Lady Gaga in part because she keeps us guessing about who she, as a woman, really is. She has been praised for using her music and videos to raise this question and to confound the usual exploitative answers provided by 'the media'… Gaga's gonzo wigs, her outrageous costumes, and her fondness for dousing herself in what looks like blood, are supposed to complicate what are otherwise conventionally sexualized performances"
