I mean, here we are in LA. The home of celebrities. They're the local natural phenomenon. Everyone knows you come to LA to see the celebrities, like you go to Sri Lanka to see the elephants.
In the book "Shopaholic to the Stars" by Sophie Kinsella, the protagonist reflects on the unique allure of Los Angeles, known for its celebrity culture. The comparison made suggests that just as tourists visit Sri Lanka specifically to see elephants, people flock to LA to encounter stars. This observation highlights the city's reputation as a hub for famous individuals, making celebrity sightings a major attraction.
This metaphor also reveals the fascination with fame and how integral it is to the LA experience. The mention of celebrities being a local natural phenomenon emphasizes their prominence and the expectations that come with visiting the city. It suggests that encountering celebrities is as ordinary and anticipated as experiencing local wildlife in other parts of the world.
