Would You Like to Be Famous? Why/Why Not?

Question

rachel776 · Accepted Answer

i work for someone famous and there are good things about it but way more bad things that never go away. they have money, but i have money, not as much, but plenty for me. people go crazy when they see them, which is great, but how much of that can you take in your life? i see it from the sidelines and it gets old fast. they get to do things most people don't, but i get to do most of those same things without being out in front. i get to go home at night (or back to the hotel), while they have to do 40 local TV interviews at midnight. they get tons of likes on social media, but they also get a lot of hate and even death threats, while no one even knows my name, or really cares. i've known other famous people, not as well as this one, but i see the same sorts of things happening with all of them in different degrees. having seen both sides up close, i wouldn't want it for myself

mmm.. I'm already famous. FBI watches me premiere every day. Haters tune in every once in a while.

Family tunes in only when tea is readily available.

Friends are the same, only difference is if there is popcorn available.

Now if you mean wealthy asf? I would like to try that sometime :) It's just I won't turn down a free offer of extra cash, with zero effort, as a condition.

Phoenix98 · Accepted Answer

I have no desire to be famous at all.

Why would I want everyone knowing who I am, where I’m going and what I’m doing at any given time? People constantly digging into my past and personal life. And living constantly with the fact that I have to walk on egg shells for the rest of my life and that every thing I do and say is being watched and and listened to and any little mistake or accident I make could lead to a scandal and ruin my life.

no amount of money or fame would make that worth while that’d be hell.

JustinTheGreat · Accepted Answer

Never. I like my privacy. Maybe I could be a voice actor or something else that won’t draw too much attention to me. But I could never be an A lister who has paparazzi waiting outside their home for them 🥴🥴

jennifer_bloom · Answer

Being famous sounds fun but there is a huge price to pay, because you have stalkers and bullying and humiliation whenever you make an error and almost every person you date is using you for your money.

SEL195 · Answer

No. I don't see the fascination. I think it must be crazy to have everyone up in your business and having opinions where they are not even allowed to have one in the first place. I do follow celebrities but mostly just musicians becuase I love music.

I would not do well in the public eye. You are either born to be a star or not.

Sour-rose · Answer

Honestly, no. Sure, I wanna be wealthy but everyone knowing my name, my alias, how I do my dreds, I'd rather just fake die. Like tupac. There's a reason I don't exist anywhere else. I don't share where I'm at because I don't need fkers... seeing the truth inside the rose

sheenagwapa · Answer

yes but i love my peace so much. i like the part of being famous but dealinh with negas and bullies is something i am not sure i can deal with peacefully because i might wanna crample their faces irl but i am so sure i have signs of the end times so swanna be an influencer

Soremain · Answer

I think I would be a good famous person. I'm generally thoughtful and not the dumbest guy and especially if the spotlight is on me I'm very careful what I say and do. I'd definitely not act like an ass like many famous people do. Also it would grow me as a person because I'm also generally afraid of attention, so being famous would be a really good school for me.

Fireguy17 · Answer

no thank you, you lose your privacy.
There is no way you could lead a normal life and just come and go as you please.
Those are freedoms that I enjoy and would hate to lose.
I live in a small town, so most people know me, what I drive so you really don't want to do anything stupid or everyone will know about it.

lucas262 · Answer

Not really, I'm a very private person the idea of people invading my space don't appeal to me.

Secondly I'd probably feel more alone than ever with so many people having an idea of who I am without actually knowing me.

The amount of influence I could have and the good I could do for people would be enough to want it but no it's ain't for me.

BlueScorpio · Answer

No, I'm to shy for the big screen and would forget my lines. I also wouldn't want to to do interviews or talk shows etc. I would only want the perks and that's traveling, buying a nice home, being financially secure.

genericname85 · Answer

Hell no. you can't ever live a normal life and just take a chill walk in the park. also you're dealing with constant daily fear of death, cause no matter how popular you are, you will get death threates and nut cases that wanna see you dead.

Mediterraneansoul · Answer

Fame comes with a responsibility that the majority with no ethics put aside. And the answer to that question would yes and no. I'd like to help people with mental struggle and spread spiritual peace if possible. On that note subscribe to driven as on youtube

pascalfornalz · Answer

No, people who wish to be famous are narcisstic.

being famous most liekly sucks.

people recognise you wherever you go.

people would want a selfie or autograph wherever you go.

any minor or even major mistake you make is blown up.

paparazzi would follow you around all the time.

The money and recognition aren't worth all of that.

and it's little wonder why many famous people have mental health issues or turn to drugs.

LikeALog · Answer

No. I have the same name as a famous person. Just based on the situations it has caused me, I would not want to be famous.

TheUniqueOne96 · Answer

Unless it came with fortune too, then no. I get enough attention as it is and I'd rather live a normal life.

OfDeath · Answer

Fame used to be as useless as tits on a bull, but now it can get you on to paid reality shows and massive social media following leading to all sorts of endorsements and advertising dollars. So yeah, I wouldn't mind.

No. Because there's nothing in it for me. Maybe wealth, but I'm doing good as is. And the money would NOT make the hassle worth it.

No! Because once you put your life out there, and something happens, you'll have to address it publicly, just to clear the air. Dirty laundry is meant for home, not to air publicly.
