Carolyn,
Your topic is very interesting and one very relevant to today. Currently we see people being pressured into being ridiculously skinny, wearing certain things, even doing certain drugs just to "fit in". Your questions and research draws attention to just how impressionable people are when they see someone famous "doing something 'cause they're cool".
I think that you have much of the information needed to answer your thesis, however, you have not come out and said their answer is______. Keep up the good work, this topic is fascinating and deals with issues related to today and everyone exposed to these "superstars".
Elvis Presley
Elvis, in his early years, was not on drugs but created an uproar in society. People also thought he was on drugs long before he ever was.
Jimi Hendrix
Very crucial to the 60's Rock movement. He had very bad drug use and died in the early 70's from a drug over dose.
Janis Joplin
Like Jimi she was very crucial in the sixties and also died of a drug overdose around the time that he did.
Pink Floyd
A very popular band from the 70's to present day.
Led Zeppelin
Very popular and crucial band in the sense of developing Rock and Roll and setting the image.
U2
U2 is a band thats been around since the early 80's/late 70's. None of their music has profanity in it. They also started out as a christian band.
