Hollywood Nightlife – Which came first, the hipster or the celebrities?
Hollywood nightlife was always synonymous with celebrities. Celebrities like to party in the clubs just like everyone else… it just so happens to be that LA is where you find a concentrated amount of celebrities. Not to mention the fact that they have more flexible schedules and disposable income than most working people, so going out becomes natural.
The Hollywood nightlife model has molded around celebrities nightlife habits. This is because people from out of town go out just to see celebs. So when a club first opens it is the hot spot, because newer = hotter in LA. And when it first opens it sets the stage for the rest of the club’s lifespan and style.
The question in Hollywood nightlife comes down to this: which came first, the hipsters or the celebrities? Believe it or not, celebrities are not actually the trendsetters. They have to answer to agents, managers, pr reps, contracts, etc all concerned with the celebrities image. The celebrity image is their brand. And their very livelihood. So the image is a business, and there are many people involved. They set trends to the public, but it’s actually trends put together by a team of masterminds behind it.
The real trendsetters (believe it or not) are the curiously despised hipsters. Hipsters who won’t even ever admit that they are hipsters. Admitting you are a hipster is rule #1 of violation and means you are not a hipster. Don’t ever expect them to admit any of this, including even being a self-identified hipster.
The hipsters hit the clubs as early as the celebrities, and they actually set the trends (without trying of course). The celebrities follow the hipsters. Hipsters follow nobody. People follow celebrities. This is why nightclubs cater to celebs at first. Not necessarily because they spend the most, but because people will come to that club after seeing it in magazines and TV long after the celeb no longer frequents that club.
So the answer to the question which came first, the hipsters or the celebrities? is actually the hipster. Celebrities follow. Models and bottles follow that and keep Hollywood nightlife alive and running. This is the Hollywood nightlife model and the hipsters are actually the ones who set the trendsetting stage whether they like it or not.
