It's good to get the money. But it must suck to have people there always follow you and not will leave you alone.

I think its good because when you are famous, you know that becuase you are famous is because the people likes you. Maybe not all people likes you, but some do.

And you know you have a talent they like

Side: It is great to be famous

To me, fame brings fortune and friends....plenty of friends. There is nothing wrong with fame.

No privacy. Seriously, everything you say and do is publicized, it's ridiculous. Going on a vacation to Hawaii friend of yours? FEAR NOT for your face in that tight bikini or revealing board shorts will be posted on the front page of 'GOSSIP GIRL' (not a real magazine). Your private life becomes public and that's no fun.

I agree with Bookbird, I would not want to be harassed by the paparazzi and have cameras in my faces 24/7. Also famous people often have a lot unkind things said about them which would be upsetting and you would not be able to live your life without being put under massive scrutiny.

I'll take the wealth, but not the fame. I can't have a camera up my ass all day!

I wouldn't want to be famous. The famous are given too much power, and are held to too high of a standard of responsibility. You can't do the things normal people do without public chastisement.

A perfect example is 'the fall of Miley Cyrus'. What she's doing is practically no different than any other girl changing from a teenager to an adult able to live on her own. Not saying all girls turn wild after becoming 18, but enough of them do to make it a pretty much normal change. yet the media has blown the whole thing out of control virtually making her an internet pariah.

You mean the rise of Miley Cyrus? She shedded her good girl routine and became more popular. More critics will follow of course. She has risen far amd beyond most other artists. I think she makes more money now too. I would say this is a rise. Also many girls probably never thought about twerking on Robin Thicke or publicly for the whole world to see.

I use 'fall' in quotes to show how negative her change has been viewed.

Less popular people get stalkers and fake friends all the time. This doesn't sound too pressing of an argument.

You would not have time for family or friends

And what would life be without family or friends?

It stinks to be famous because, sometimes you will be followed when you are in town.

And if someone who not like you is enough fucked up the head, the person will maybe try to kill you!:O
