The Advantages and Disadvantages of Being Famous
A famous person is generally greeted with respect and courtesy, which boosts his pride and ego. He is talked about universally and the public queue up just to get a glimpse of him. However, this is not always the case. Fame has its attendant drawbacks.
When a person is famous, he usually lives in a world of kindness and deference. People are ready to please him, simply because he is a celebrity. A famous man is seldom questioned and detained. He is allowed to pass through with dignity. Each time, his likes and dislikes will be considered. However, a famous person can have his own worries and fears. To some degree, he loses his privacy. He has to renounce his individuality to become a public figure. His obligation to the public encroach his personal life. The public insists on knowing everything about him. He also lives in constant fear of his safety. Each public appearance is an ordeal as it might be dangerous. In some cases he is not able to distinguish genuine friends from false ones.
Being famous is certainly a passport in itself in many ways. However, I personally would not want to sacrifice a normal life for fame and its advantage.
