Yeah, beautiful gowns, fast cars, huge mansions, lots of money, people recognizing your face even if you hide beneath big sunglasses and ugly clothes, everyone wanting to know what you are doing, your private issues of pain or humiliation publicized.... Do you guys want that kind of life???

Hi there Mar Apple Stiffy! Well, as much as I love those good stuff that you mentioned- beautiful gowns, huge mansions, money, I don't think I will ever like losing my privacy though it would be nice to have the power, the influence of being famous in pushing through noble causes and knowing that there are big possibilities that people will support you with these causes. It's just the lack of privacy that I would never like.

yeah, it would be so scary if we can't do anything that we can keep to ourselves...

Greetings! I have a dream of being famous but not that soooo famous. I'm contented to be known. It feels good to be famous that others know you but the counterpart of being famous is that you don't have privacy in every thing you do. If they saw you dating with someone, you'll be surprised that you're on the newspaper. Another is, if some people like you, there are also who don't. I like to be famous in a way of being a model. Hahah! I want to be in the magazine cover. Wow! I'm so ambitious! In that way, at least, models are not that issued on television because artists are more famous than models. Artists are the more who are talked about by public. :) Anyway thanks for sharing! Happy mylotting! ;)

hmmn, I guess everyone dreamed of being famous like an actor or an actress at a time, I know I did, and if you've got what it takes to be a model then why not go for it???

I do want to be famous, however I don't want all the movie star kind of attention. I probably won't get it either. I just want to be a great poet or novelist; not a famous as Stephen King or other world known writers. I would love to feel free to live the kind of life where I can help my family because of my success. One day I do plan to be famous; to what degree? God only knows.

I don't like that kind of being famous, where even your private issues is being brought out in the open. I love my privacy. I just want to be famous in a milder way. Perhaps thru my charity works but not for my looks. That way, they wouldn't be digging into my lovelife or private life.

There have often been times in my life when I thought that being famous was what i wanted. then i have to think if being a celebrity in the public eye and in the limelight all of the time would really be worth it. it's a nice dream. If it happens, then i know it was meant to be.

I see this as a consequence, you know? This, for me, is not something that I want to achieve, but something that comes along with what I actually want to achieve. Do you get me? You see, I loove songs! I also love writing and singing! And I hope one day that I'll succeed and be famous, because I think being famous lets you keep doing this type of job for a long time.

No, I don't want a life where I am under public scrutiny. I hate to be criticized by people who barely know me at all and if i am a public figure, i would be receiving all kinds of criticism. I would be hearing unsolicited advice that would not even apply to my real life as what they see from me only is the shallow surface of my life. I want a peaceful, comfortable life. One with real happiness, out of public scrutiny.

No I never wanted to be famous, I just want to have plenty of money and lots of love and respect from people but I do not want to be famous in a way exemplified on the discussion, I do not want the paparazzi following me, I love our privacy as a family and I really think being famous would put your children and marriage at risk as we have seen time and again from movie and sports celebrities

i dont want to be famous,, i just want to live normal,, i dont want people talking about me,, being famous seems to make you feel like you're in a competition that you should be more careful in what you're doing

I would never see why anyone would ever want that much fame. I, for one, am comfortable with my present life, being loved by a close few. Fame would only bring about an end to the way things are now. I'll have Lindsay Lohan and a few others to testify what inordinate quantities of fame would do to one's life. :)
