| Many sportstars today make alot of money. Not all of the money come from good achievements and success, but from sponsors who is paying them because of their looks. One very good example of that is Anna Kournikova: | |||||||||||||||||||||||
| Anna Kournikova is one of the most popular sportsstars in the world. She is 20 years old and she is playing tennis. She has tride 67 times to win a big tournament, without success. But still she is the best payed woman player with 170 mill. norwegian kroner from sponsors. If you didn't know, she has a good appearance. As a teenage girl, Anna Kournikova was a big talet in tennis. She got a huge sponsorarrangement and became famous pritty fast. She didn't get all the attention because of her playing, but because of the way she looked. Afterwords she got all sorts of arrangements with sportswear companies. Because of this she started focus more and more on her appearence, instead of tennis. The question is; is this Anna Kournicovas foult, or is it the people behind her? Alot of people think that the only reason she has become so popular, is because of her look. In a way that is true, but she couldn't have come where she is today, by her self. If she weren't so good in tnennis as a young girl, no one would notise her. This is a question to discuss. |

| Sportstars can also make alot of money after their career. In Norway we have to very good examples; Bj�rn D�hlie and Vegard Ulvang. They were to of Norways best cross country skiers. After they ended their sportscareer they started producing their own clothes collections. D�hlie started with ski outfits and Ulvang with wool underwear. This clothes became very popular. One of the reasons of the impressive sale is the quality of the products, but the popularity of the people behind (Ulvang and D�hlie) doesn't make it less popular. D�hlie and Ulvang used their names and popularity from their skiing-career to earn money from selling clothes. |
