Some guy says he ' s Jesus and tries to fuck everyone in the compound <| sep |> I think the message is more relevant than ever . It ' s no longer about debunking falseness though , it ' s almost more about embracing it . It ' s a reflection on what celebrity actually means to us . To me this current phase so far says a lot about what we ourselves project onto the icons that surround us and how the physical truth behind them are irrelevant to the fictional reality we build ourselves in order to relate to them . I can think of examples where I ' ve held a sentimental attachment to a YouTuber or blogger due to a specific persona they put out there , but then once that persona has been dispelled the person would turn out to be a completely different in person . But more often than not , I feel that people will choose to hold on to their idea of the icon over the actual individual , just because the icon is something we can control and project our own values onto . I think deep down we all just want people to look up to . In that same sense , I find it amazing that people are now interacting with the members of Gorillaz over social media , basically treating them like they would any real celebrity . People give Noodle compliments on her cat or her clothes or whatever else she puts up there . Oh , Noodle eats cupcakes ? I eat cupcakes too ! Whether or not they ' re being ironic or sincere , I think the truth is somewhere in between . I think social media is actually going to come to embrace Gorillaz completely during this phase , because one thing they have that not many other celebrities have is their pure fictional quality . I think people are enjoying the fact that they have an icon they are free to embrace and worship however they choose . They are made to be fake , they are made to be icons , and by that there is no reality to contradict the ideas we project onto them . This might all be incidental meaning that comes with an animated band existing on social media , but hey , I find it fascinating as fuck . Plus , it ' s more fun than constantly refreshing the Kong Studios website .
