fame

i think deep down i want to be famous. i want to become a superstar and live my life always in the public eye. of course, that would leave a lot of room for scandal, and i don't know if i'd like that. -- afterall, it's not like i'm the model citizen or whatevers. more famousness more problems, it seems.

it seems that no matter how positive the light in which you are famous is, there are always people that dislike you. even if you're famous in the best way, there's always going to be someone who will try to bring you down.

take teenage pop stars -- they always have to be super-clean and super good to be a good teen idol... but then, if they were super-clean and super-good, then they become boring and lose appeal. either way, you have to make somebody dislike you to have somebody else like you.

i don't know if i can handle that.

i wonder how it would feel to know that there are legions of people out there that disliked me. i mean, i wouldn't care much if it was a neutral thing, like "oh, i just dont care about that person even though they're famous because they don't interest me"... more of a "omg, how can that person be famous they're so stupid and bla bla and these are all the bad things about them bla bla and these are the bad things that they could be..."

would it be worth the fame? i guess it depends on how famous you get and how much you value adoring fans and how much people disliking you bothers you.

heh. maybe it would be interesting to have a bunch of people really hating me. i would definately not get bored. maybe that's why people are assholes on controversial threads.

the attention.

in the end, i think i wouldn't mind being famous. maybe just a little famous and not so famous that people want to bring me down... but famous enough so that enough people know who i am so that i get a "can i get your autograph?" every once in a while. =]

yeah. i'd like that.

youre already famous, youve been featured in two ezines, and youve got a whole crowd of random bloggers religiously reading your site, what more could you ask? and btw, could I have your autograph? (note ambiguity between sarcasm and seriousness) ;)
