I see the pictures of many famous people in the pool. Do they really like to swim or is it something else? Don’t get me wrong, I would be thrilled if so many famous people start to advertise swimming and physical activity in general. Many people look up to them as role models. What do you think?

Like you, I would be happy if their campaign was motivated by knowledge about benefits of swimming or sudden desire to participate in such activity. More likely is that they are promoting new swim wear (paid in hundreds of thousands of dollars by the manufacturers). Or they are promoting themselves. If someone has worked on his/her body or her cosmetic surgeon has performed a good job public has (the right) to know it. Or they are showing off with their wealth. Is there better opportunity for a celebrity to show their new swimming pool, new body and sponsor’s swim wear, all at the same time? You show off, keep media’s attention on yourself and make many at the same time! It is a winner (for them of course)!
