Should celebrities who break the law face stricter penalties?

It is reasonable that people who break the law must be punished. However, there is a argument that celebrities who break the law should get punished harder. I think that celebrities who break the law should face stricter penalties. Some people can think that it is not fair to give heavy penalties just because they are celebrities. However, I think that becoming a celebrity gives famous to her or him and they can get many things like a lot of money and honor through it, so it is no wonder to they assume the responsibility about their faults. There is a reason why I think so. The celebrity is not just alone and influences many people not only adults but also children. The young children, sometimes, think to their favorite entertainer as idol so they usually copy them. Therefore, if the celebrity breaks the law, almost of the fans defend her or him, as a result, they think so little of the fault. There is a proper example of it. According to the article, G-dragon, who is a famous singer in Korea, get suspected of taking a drug. Actually, a small amount of it was founded and he said that he smoke it that a person who do not know gave because he thought that it is just a cigarette. As a result he receive a suspended indictment and take a time for self-reflection. There were people who just defend him and I think that it is very dangerous situation because they can think that smoking drug is not a deadly sin through defending. Therefore, celebrities should act and speak responsibly because they effect to people greatly.
