Everyone nowadays should be able to understand that being famous is not really something worth achieving. Most teenagers' dreams consist of becoming well known actors or musicians, supermodels etc but if you take the time to do some research on the subject you'll realize that most famous people just want to be left alone. I'm not talking about attention whores like Paris Hilton, Lady Gaga or Britney Spears that do provocative things just to be the center of attention. I'm talking about respectable artists like Johnny Depp, who is one of the most famous actors of our time but you don't see any shocking detailed stories about his private life in the tabloids anymore because he refuses to talk about it.
When an individual becomes well known, they are constantly being chased by paparazzi and reporters who bother them nonstop and, being a new celebrity, you answer their questions without thinking carefully. Everything you do becomes front page news. Not to mention that most of the times journalists and photo reporters twist stories and make up things just to create a scandal.
Why would anyone want that? Their lives to become a public joke? I don't get it.
