Essay / My role model: Andy Biersack - 945
My role model is Andy Biersack {22 years old}, lead singer of Black Veil Brides. The meaning of the names is based on a religious term used by Catholics. The term is when a nun gets married in a church, she wears a black veil, and Andy loved the fact that you give everything you have for something you love. So the name Black Veil Brides is mainly about him giving up everything for what he loved to do, no matter how hard it was. Biography: Early Life: Andrew Dennis Biersack or {Andy Biersack} was born to Chris and Amy Biersack on December 26. 1990, in Cincinnati, Ohio. He was born naturally with blonde hair and blue eyes, but later dyed his hair black in middle school. Andy grew up in a Catholic home, and that was his religion. He attended a Catholic elementary school as a child. His parents discovered that as he got older, his style was different. He was severely bullied at school because of his appearance and the music he liked. He was nicknamed “Faggot” and “Emo”. This life experience is recreated in the song and video “Knives and Pens”. The song was about how when you're depressed or bullied, you can either choose to hurt yourself with knives, or pick up a pen and draw, write stories or emotions, write music, etc. . all the pain and hatred. Andy's songs have helped millions of people through the messages conveyed through his songs. Religion: As I said before, he was raised Catholic, but is now an atheist. In an interview he said: “I am not a religious person but I grew up in a religious family. I went to the funeral of my grandfather, a person I love very much, and everyone talks about how he went to heaven and how he is in heaven. I still struggle with it, b...... middle of paper...... and that's okay. He missed more dates due to this injury, but he stayed strong, put on the show and was successful. better. I chose Andy Biersack as a role model, because he gave and puts everything he has/had into his music, he doesn't swear in any of his songs and he's not afraid to be himself . A rumor spread that Andy. cried a fan who held up a sign saying "We want Andy Sixx back." » They only liked him for the makeup and outfits they wore back then, not for who he is now. I think if you only like a band or artist for the way they look and not the music or the person, then you never liked them. First of all, I could talk about this all day, but I choose to leave it at that because I don't want to go on forever. Andy is my role model, and I will always love and admire him, not for the sake of it. image, but for who he is, his music, his lyrics and the band itself.
