That's why fame freaks me out in a lot of ways - because how genuine of a connection can you have when you're a commodity, and a conversation with you means bragging rights? That's terrifying to me.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Fame terrifies me. I can say that with honesty. You're terrified that, when people know the real you, they won't like you.
Fame is a weird one. You need to distance yourself from it. People see a value in you that you don't see yourself.
Fame is a by-product which you have to deal with in a sensible way. To believe that it is anything more significant than that is deeply self-deceptive.
Fame is damaging when people become reliant on it for their sense of self, and their identity, when fame is linked to how you see yourself.
Fame comes and fame goes, but you have to be able to laugh about yourself and to take it with a grain of salt.
Fame is, I think, just a disgusting by-product of what I do.
Well, any time you're faced with fame on that level, it's - it can be somewhat unnerving because you're never taught how to manage it and how to deal with it. So you're sort of left out there on your own, trying to navigate those waters for yourself.
Fame for fame's sake is toxic - some people want that, with no boundaries. It's unhealthy.
It's very hard not to let fame affect you because you are continually being told how good you are. After a while you begin to think there must be some truth in it because all those people can't be wrong.
Fame is hollow. It amplifies what is there. If there is any self-doubt, or hatred, or lack of ability to connect with people, fame will magnify it.
