Life tends to display certain restrictions for famous people. Why can't famous people simply have a quiet, normal lifestyle? I assume that money, status and power are major factors relating to this issue. I personally know some stars and life is difficult at times. Adversity is experienced even by the best of us.
Being famous has advantages and disadvantages. A disadvantage is one's existence becomes an open book. An advantage is being financially secure and helping others in their time of need. Obtaining fame and wealth attracts some unwanted attention. For example, stars can't enjoy simple pleasures such as a picnic in the park without being recognized. Why do most stars attract attention?
Most reporters and fans are fascinated with a rich, glamorous, imaginary lifestyle.
Average people usually wish for lucrative things and there is nothing wrong with that. The main key to success is preparation. If you are not mentally or financially ready for what comes with being a celebrity, it will be a long, painful road ahead. In my opinion, being famous has a high price to pay. Money isn't the answer to everything. Stars deal with legal ramifications, family problems, loyal friends and basically trying to stay on top of the ladder. Privacy ends immediately and envy plays an ugly role in a star's life. Most stars will never be normal and can't handle the pressure. How would you survive newfound stardom?
