Quote

There is a price for popularity. Critics look for your weaknesses, your flaws, anything that makes the work seem like a fluke and not seem worthy of all the attention it's getting.

I have heard some people say I have a low profile. Why should somebody be high profile, anyway? I am just doing my job.

It's often the case that successful people invite criticism.

Know that the amount of criticism you receive may correlate somewhat to the amount of publicity you receive.

I've always kept a low profile, and I like it that way.

I've probably put up with more criticism than a lot of people out there. At the end of the day, you block out everything, especially with your personal life.

Everybody who does anything for the public can be criticized. There's always someone who doesn't like it.

If critics have problems with my personal life, it's their problem. Anybody with half a brain would realize that it's the charts that count.

For some critics we might be uncool on account of our popularity.

When you're so out there in the public eye, people are constantly criticizing every aspect about you.
