It is believed that famous people have a wonderful life,but is being famous really so easy?
Being famous has two advantages,to me. The main one is that you can travel a lot and you have the opportunity to see different places.
Another advantages is that you can make a lot of money and,obviously,you can buy what you really want without any problem.
This can be an ideal life for people,but on the other hand there are three important disadvantages.
For exemple you do not have privacy and you probably cannot enjoy your own life because of the paparazzi or fans waiting outside your door.
Furthermore,you always need to look good because you are always on stage.
Last,but not least,you can be introduced to drugs and your life can turn into a nightmare.
In conclusion,I think that if you want to be famous you must consider the consequences of being a star.
What's your opinion?

There are so many ways to become famous. Some are famous for the right reasons in the right way. Being famous is advantageous and I don't see any disadvantages with it unless one is in the entertainment industry or politically involved. If not, being famous is just as simple as people knowing who u are, the things u are famous for. There isn't a need to be glamorous or specially dress up to fit into that famous status. Life has got to move on and one can't be famous all the time. If one wants their legacy to last, they have to pay a high price for that.

Honestly I have had those days that I thought "I really want to be known by the world, famous that is". But now I don't want such life any longer. I have seen such videos (even though some are fake, it gave REAL information, just saying) that everything a celebrity does, gets noted down. Someone eats a candy bar Lady, and it will be shown in a magazine, where to get that candy bar, perhaps the cost, I don't know... It's just, if you honestly get such life, you will no longer have a life of your own. You can't choose for yourself what to do that week/day/month/...
I rather have a life of my own, than living such life.

When I was young, I used to want to become a famous person. A movie star, a politician, a government body.
But now, as i grow older, i don't really fancy that life. Indeed, there is the advantage that we are able to make lots of money. But, we won't be able to go out to the streets and shop. We don't see our president going to the food court to eat, or going to the shopping center to buy clothes. When we become famous, we never get to enjoy that anymore.
We won't get any privacy as the paparazzi will keep following us. I have considered this before and i am not willing to exchange my life for one that does not belong to me!

Everything in life has both merits and demerits. Being a celebrity also has the same consequences. But a celebrity has to take the pressure, otherwise he or she will be in great sufferings. It is a great reality that to gain something you have to lose something. Moreover, I think celebrities are born and never made. But media and other electronic medias can help you to some extent in this regard.
