If you could be famous, would you?

If someone gave you the opportunity to become famous overnight, would you take it? Personally, I wouldn't. A lot of people who do become famous end up with depression and take drugs and a bunch of other awful things. Despite having a lot of money, the fame isn't worth it.

Discuss. :)

I would love it. But only if I got to make my own career choices. I personally want to be an actress, so getting called for a lets say Hunger Games movie would be beyond amazing. But again, I want to go my own path and be different then all the other actresses. I wouldn't be a Mary Sue, but I wouldn't make incredibly stupid choices either

No.

 

No because the desire to be famous found within some people has never made any sense to me.

 

I mean, if it's to be loved, fame isn't the way to go. If you're going to say every famous person is loved, than you've never been on the internet.

 

But yeahh, only because I'm happy with the way things are for me and I've never had a desire to be famous in the first place.

Tough question. I'd love the attention because I've spent so much of my life under the radar or basking in the fakest of limelights, but you're right about the fame bringing a lot of pain. I'd probably end up picking being famous, but living to regret it, unfortunately.

No, I absolutely would not want to be famous. I've had brief brushes with it in the gaming community, and it made me absolutely miserable. Plus, I've seen what fame does to people. Makes them crazy. :wacko:

I would want to be famous, but only for the things I do well at. Also, I wouldn't do it anyway cuz the first thing that would come to my mind if I did except was something COMPLETELY wrong. So no, I wouldn't risk it. I'd rather let my popularity take some time as I go along.

Famous overnight? For what I wonder... :P

 

But no, I wouldn't want to become famous overnight, it would be awful. I would love it if I reach a point in my future career where I make something people really enjoy to that point, but I would likely create a pseudonym to avoid being identified. (A little better than Daring's attempt though, I must say...)

Well i'm not going to kid myself and say I haven't wished a life as such...but hey, don't we all?
It would be very sweet, but also, very bad. As far as I can tell, fame only corrupts those who fall under that category, and only very few get out of that. Take Miley Cyrus for example...she used to be a sweet girl, very close to her father, and was a role model for quite some time...and now look at her. She is a has been, and is becoming a never been...I understand throwing away a persona to move on into adulthood, but being provocative to prove a point is another.

 

In other words, fame is evil. I don't even see a point in it, it's just there. Nya.

I'd really rather have my own life. Being famous has occurred to me as a good thing a few times, though, and.. well, I wouldn't want to have every single secret of mine also blurted out to the whole world.

I'd take it in an instant. I don't have to worry about money or popularity, and at least it would feel like people actually care.

Hey, buddy. It's called a publicity stunt.

No, because then everyone would hate me, just like how everyone hates other famous people these days

 

 

jk, but no, I'm not really the type who'd like to be famous

I would like to be "Youtube Famous". I dislike the whole "paparazzi follow you around, signing autographs everywhere" deal. But as Youtube, similar to the Youtuber "Cryotic", where you have an alias, and everyone recognizes you for what you do, but people don't know what you look like in real life.

Eh.  I'm not crazy about being famous.  For me it's just a respect and follower kind of thing that I want (it isn't for selfish reasons, there's long reasoning and a bunch of crap behind it).  So my answer would be no, I wouldn't wanna be famous.  If it happened, I guess sure, but I'm not making it my priority.

Well, I have always liked being the center of attention. =P

 

...Just being honest with myself there. Although, I'm not sure I'd like attention on that big of a scale. Unless it was for a greater purpose. Like if I were famous for playing one of my favorite instruments, and made that instrument more famous (they definitely deserve it!). xD
