Question- Why Do People Want To Be Famous?

What is the attraction? What would you get from being famous? Imagine you were, do you see any down side to it?


Thanks!

 

The attraction is being rich and being very very hyperpopular, to the point where you can walk into a room full of strangers and be accepted because you're a celebrity.

The biggest downside I see to being famous is the press. If I were Michael Phelps I couldn't smoke weed at a party, but being me nobody cares if they see me lighting up. Also, the paparazzi and rumors would piss me off to no end.

 

Money, Power, Women, Respect, Renown ....

 

Money- not that I'd want to be. There are too many things about me in the past I would not want the world to know. Appear on some Z list reality show and it's open season for some 'friends' from the past to sell a story to the papers.
