Popularity with the Press


Being a female soccer player is nothing short of hard work. Alex Morgan gives society the impression of a hard working athlete, yet she likes to have fun on the side. The article, Alex Morgan runs into Jersey Shore cast at her bachelorette party, reveals information about the social life of Morgan. For instance, the article raves upon her celebrating her bachelorette in Miami. Miami is known for being one of the biggest party cities in America and having a bachelorette party in MIA is bound to turn crazy. Photos of Morgan in the article have her shown with her friends, in nice attire, in the club, in the bathroom, and hanging out with Jersey Shore star Sammi Sweetheart. The public turns their heads more and more towards this article as two female stars intertwine with each other and give the public impression of partying in possibly the party capitol of America. Sammi Sweetheart is well-known for her role in the hit TV show Jersey Shore, which is basically a party in a TV. An opposing article called Alex Morgan is going to guest star in a Nickelodeon TV show gives the world a different side to the partying life. Alex is starring in one of the most popular TV networks for kids. An effect of generosity is premiered to the public eye as she switches from the field and party life to the youth world. Morgan says in the article, “I’m horrible at acting,” which leaves the impression of a woman athlete trying to make more money on the side. Guest appearances on big time TV networks brings in serious cash. The fact that Morgan doesn't know, or is just an awful actress proves that when money is involved, the people come crawling. The article does take a turn of events when it starts talking about her recent ankle injury and coming back from it. The readers get a different perception of the soccer star when it starts to talk about Morgan possibly playing in the next tournament. The US squad has an International tournament on December 10 that lasts through the 21st. It will take part in Brazil, which is a country known for soccer so a person reading this article may get the impression that she needs to play in it. To talk about her injury and recovery stage in a Nickelodeon article says a lot about who she is as a player and human being.
