It's better to be behind the scenes. Trust me.

All the superficial aspects of fame wear off like novelty. It ain't no big whoop.

Everyone alwasy says that...but not every LIVES it...hmph!

And plenty do. Trust moi. There's plenty of money to be made behind the scenes too, but I'm not saying you shouldn't go for whatcha know. If your aspirations includes fame in the package and that's what you want, go for it. But being famous just for fame's sake...eh. shrug I can't stand the Paris Hiltons of the world, and I can't stand America's obsession with celebrity culture.

It's not about the fame, but I like the idea of making an impact. That is, having something to offer that's special enough to make people really care about it.

I like that.

What i find interesting are child stars.

Children who get pushed into wanting fame etc.....

We all go "i wonder where that good acting kid ended up doing?" and I like to think they just quit and stopped when an adult or teen! But they proberly ended up doing bit parts in tv or whatever which is cool but must be a huge ego letdown

I think it is kinda selfish to push ur kid into anything, let alone acting, sports or any media.

there is encouragement and then there is forceful pushing (through love of course)

Iam not saying all kid stars grow up to be drug dependant, but really who can blame them? It must be heartbreaking 4 faceless people to go "u ain't cute anymore" etc.....or just end being given bit parts when u were just in a huge film or popular tv show for years.....


Yet of course the world needs chiild actors. I just so hope the parents are not forceful in any way

In music, you usually can tell the difference between the stars (Michael Jackson, Britney Spears, Madonna, Celine Dion, Beyonce, Tim McGraw) and the artists (Prince, R.E.M., Ani DeFranco, Public Enemy) by looking at who has top selling albums and singles as opposed to who their peers consider to be the best musicians.



Huh? Do the 2 have to be mutually exclusive? I would consider Michael and Madonna to be artists, just artists who court fame to prolong their reigns. They both write and produce. If Prince didn't want to be a star, why would he have made all those movies? Have top selling artists never been considered great musicians?


nod Selling alot, don't mean you're not an artist


And I never wanna be famous
