Fame and fortune.
That's what I want, they say.
But
What is fame? Is it just
people knowing your
name?
it's not about talent
anymore.
Because
if it was
half of the
people in the
industry would
probably not be
the industry, right ?
I am right.
We all have talent.
Having

a

"big"


last


name



is



a




cheat





.

In the news,
you see incidents
where celebrities
are in trouble.
Drugs

alcohol use
divorce

drugs
abusive couples

alcohol use
getting kicked out of clubs

and hotels
and homes

i did say drugs,
And alcohol usage, right ?


And my question still remains

What is fame ?
Your name known?
Getting shortcuts at public arenas?

Why do people go crazy over a
famous person?
Because I'm pretty sure that "average" person
is better than at least one
thing than that celebrity is.
So why go nuts?
They are people
and so are we.
A famous person is
just as miserable as
us "average" people,
if not more.
