Philip Seymour Hoffman, a much beloved and award
winning actor, dies to a heroin overdose, and the media explodes in a
contradiction of sorrow and contempt for his passing.
Once again, we’ve watched in sorrow as another supremely talented
and much loved celebrity has succumbed to the depths of drug addition.
Philip Seymour Hoffman, an oscar winning actor, was found dead in his
apartment from an apparent heroin overdose. He was only 46, recently acting in
such films as Capote and The Hunger Games, and should have
been been enjoying his success. But he wasn’t. Any celebrity death
resulting from drug addiction erupts in controversy across the internet;
responses to his death have varied from anger at glorifying a drug user to
honoring his life and work. Centel Media™, an online reputationmanagement company, works hard to offer services such as Negative
Article Suppression that would allow Hoffman’s true legacy to shine through. Centel Media™ offers these types of services to anyone who needs them, high profile celebrity, businesses, or anyone concerned with online reputation and caters
it’s strategies depending on individual needs.
Perhaps the death of such a well-know person and the amount of
people his work has affected will raise some awareness about the devastating
and uncontrollable effects of drug use. It also gives insight into what
makes people truly happy. Hoffman had achieved such rare success: a
successful acting career in Hollywood built out of pure talent and hard work.
He has taught us that achieving personal happiness isn’t solely about
reaching a satisfying career goal or having a certain amount of fame and money.
He obviously faced some personal demons that nobody can judge him for,
and tried to find his happiness through drug use.
Philip Seymour Hoffman should be remembered for what he
accomplished during his lifetime, not the way that he died. His innate ability
to act and become not just a character, but an entire being, has made his
passing that much more sorrowful and left the world reeling at such a senseless
loss of talent. Online reputation management through Centel Media™ would enable him to be seen for his talents and what he has given to the world,
not his own personal sufferings, because that isn’t who he was. He was a
wonderful actor and gave much in his lifetime. He deserves to be
remembered that way, and his family and loved ones deserve his legacy to
honored in a respectable and kind fashion.
