Would you like the fortune and fame ? Could you handle the fortune and fame ?
 
If I could have the fame without the tabloids, I'd do it. If only because I'd love to rub it in the faces of all those who bullied me until I had no self esteem left. My 6th grade teacher who told me I was evil because I use perfume and deordant. My high school drama teacher who admits she not cast anyone talented but unpopular in favor of the untalented but popular (she admitted that the people she cast had no talent for acting or singing) just to sell tickets. The kids that kept calling me names. My abusive ex-boyfriend.

But if I had to deal with them questioning my sexuality, misquoting me, striving to ruin my life, then no, I can't handle fame.

Money would be nice. But really, I just want to make music and make enough money to live comfortably. Fame and forturn not required.
 
I could easily deal with fortune, but not the fame. I'd get arrested for killing paparazzi :<
 
I couldn't, ever. I hate it when people stare at me. I got a small taste when I did a few shows for my old job. People have no manners and just blast off like you're deaf or something. After that, I refused.

Nope nope nope, though i could handle the money 😉
 
Never ever could I deal with the fame....or the fortune for that matter (hey I'm being honest! 🙂 )

My idea of a perfect existance would be similar to what is described in Walden I feel right at home in the thick of Mother Nature - can't stand living in the city and a nice little cabin nestled deep in the forest is paradise. Fame, fortune and glory can go walk the plank for all I care 🙄
 
Wouldn't want the fame, or people knowing how much i'm worth.. I have enough people groping for my cash as it is.. Maybe for a day..
 
I admire those who admitted they couldn't do well with it.

It's weird, I've always been in some kind of spotlight, whether it was community theater as a kid, athletics in high school, on Tv and in print as writer/on-air talent, working in PR for an ad agency winning awards, as a major moneymaker for my hospital and the charities I work for, shoot, even a little bit here at TMF! 😀
(Dan, Jan and Terry always tease me about being celebrity--something I always shake my head at them for.) Through it all, I think I've remained pretty grounded. I know where I shine and I know what I suck at, I'm not afraid to admit it to anyone. Have I had some some weird moments in my life because of it? Sure. Do I think I might be able to handle it? Hell yes, kids, I've earned it--and I'm one of those who money never mattered that much to anyhow--I was always "middle class." I'd probably be giving it away right and left just out of guilt. 😀

XOXO
 
Nope... I just kinda like being just plain ol' ordinary me.
 
I'd like to add that I really do love attention. I'm a preformer, I don't feel right if the focus isnt on me. Thats whats so weird about my disliking fame.

See, I don't mind the thought of fame. It's the thought of people butting into my private life that bothers me.

Let's face it, the tabliods would have a field day with the TMF, the toons of me, the stories I've written. They'd destroy my relationship with my family. All to sell a few rags.

And it's not just them. I read this interview LA Times did with Barry Manilow and they had it ALL messed up to start with - said his mother was Irish, his father Jewish - his mother was Jewish, his father half-Jewish, half-Irish. Then they speculated on his sexuality - when if they bothered to read his autobiography Sweet Life first they'd KNOW he's STRAIGHT. He lived and had sex with the same WOMAN for over 30 years. He was recently even quoted saying his favorite thing is to hold a WOMAN close to his body and rub his hands up and down HER back.

And anyway, so long as he's having sex with consenting adults, his sex life is no one's business but his own. Now if it was child rapist Roman Polanski or even hit-and-run queen Hally Berry I can see butting into their lives - once you commit a crime you don't have a right to privacy.

He's only one example - the media are always butting into the famous peoples' private lives. Asking things none of their business. Reporting things the general public doesn't need to know. I don't care what kind of hamburger Burt Reynolds likes. Famous people have a right to go shopping in peace. So what if some movie starlette was seen without her makeup? Yeesh. Let it go, people.

If I could have the fame without worries that my abusive ex-boyfriend would be paid to bad mouth me or stupid but not illegal things I've done would be front page news, then I'd happily take fame. I just don't want to see the LA Times wondering if I'm a lesbian.
 
The question is could fame and fortune handle me.

Kust

my thoughts exactly...i feel the same you do :dogpile:
 
Hell yes... I could handle it. There are a number of women in showbiz that I'd like to at least meet. The one thing I would not be able to handle is anything involving stage acting. Being able to do multiple takes for movie scenes seems like it would be relatively easy. With stage acting, having to consistently get it right the first time around must be maddening -- not to mention how it also usually pays less....
 
Hollywood celebrity tends to rot the mind, some handle it well but many don't.
Many of them think fame equals wisdom, like they're two steps ahead of the rest of us.
Sheen, Cruise, Strisand, blah blah.
 
I'd finally have the excuse I have always wanted to be OPENLY self-destructive.

It's funny how being a celebrity seems to automatically give you a license to do that. :idunno:
