Hypothetical question. Please don't take this the wrong way, I don't mean it from a materialistic standpoint. Let's say you're a shy person, not ugly or anything, you're afraid to make the first move in real life, you're talented, but no one knows what you're really like or how great you can be. Let's take that person and put him in movies and show him playing different roles -- the hero, the villain, the womanizer, the best friend, the troublemaker, the smarty pants, the nutcase, etc. etc.
Would you say that people would see him differently because they're seeing how versatile he is, showing different traits, different sides, and that he's not just some shy guy nobody? All material issues aside, perhaps they would end up liking him enough to develop friendships and relationships with this guy?
It doesn't even have to be a shy guy. It could be a white guy who's into black girls, but black girls would never know because they'd assume he's only into white girls. Ok, just throw him in a romance flick and have him fall in love with a black girl and they can see themselves in her shoes with him. Get it? Or how about a guy everyone assumes is not aggressive or tough? Put him in an action flick, blow up some bad guys, get the girl and save the day.
There's people out there who are capable of many things which most will never know about, because the opportunity sometimes doesn't present itself to that person so that other people will see a whole different side of him/her. An opportunity to show others that you're more than what other people think you are. What's everyone think about this concept?

Well yeah, it makes sense that people should like you before you become famous if they are really true. But the truth of the matter is, different situations reveal different sides to a person because the reaction is different. A person may not get the opportunity to know the other person because that person is not engaging in anything since that person is not presented with enough opportunity to take action.
In a film, however, you create the action, the opportunities, etc.
The fact of the matter is that some people rarely get seen and rarely get the chance to show what they're capable of or who they really are. Technically, we can't control this in real life (we can to some extent), but in movies, you can. Even though they're not real, you're still portraying real emotions just as you would in real life. Emotions and traits that other people may not get to see in you in real life because the opportunity may not present itself ever.
If that makes any sense...

Also, I think it's safe to say that people who are not famous can be living shallow lives as well.
Let's face it -- a mismatched married couple who wages war with each other in private but has to act happy and in love around other people (friends, associates, family), otherwise it would be inappropriate wouldn't it? That's a shallow life.
How about you're trying to get a better job and you have to lie about your objective when everyone's objective is to get the most benefit by doing the least amount of work? Heck, kissing up to your boss everyday who makes more than you is bad enough. Now that's a shallow life we're all living hence we all work jobs.
Ok, now I think I'm going off topic with this.

Um...... Yes. I believe that any time someone becomes famous it automatically changes the aura of that person. Not because of the skill they possess,but because of the celebrity lime life and the money fortune and fame

what your saying is true entirely .....but if they arent interested in you beforehand are they really worth knowing anyway.....but relationship wise i would rather find love before becoming rich or famous then you would know she is with you because she loves you and then you become rich she takes half i can handle that,but being then rich falling in love id be wondering does she love me or out only to get my money...

its a shallow life, to be in the lime light, it takes a strong person to deal with fame and stay true to your moral fiber and yourself,
