Question

do youthink it somehow makes them soar above the mundane tedious mediocre.
do you believe that the famous are not just as fukked up and selfish as the rest of us.
or do you assume that you would be able to do whatever you liked?

Answer 1

I think they are more likely to be f*cked up than the rest of us. I don't envy famous people at all.

Answer 2

Living life in the fast lane breaks the everyday rat race of life.Live life to the fullest daily if you have never jumped from a plane or chopper,that's a must rush.I do think the rich and famous are messed up more than I am ,don't know your circumstances,but I don't think if I had the opportunity to do whatever I liked would make me any more happy.Might make things easier if I had alot of money.It might also back fire and make you miserable inside.I would like to hit a few hundred mil on the lotto to find out,wouldn't you?

Answer 3

I don't think they are more meaninful I think McMillan nurses, doctors, charity workers lead meaningful lives as they have an impact on people. I also feel that I do what I want now. I don't need fame or a heap load of money to spend time with my family. I try to enjoy every minute of life. I like to stop in busy streets and look up to see the architecture and statues and to feel the rain fall on my face. I suppose to some maybe I am nuts but what is normal anyway ?

Answer 4

Their lives aren't more vibrant, they are just seen by more people. They're owned by the public in the sense that that is the only reason they are famous, but they also own the public as people (for some wierd reason) want to copy them.

If a farmer in deep Wales dominated the papers every day we'd all be wearing wellies and going for long walks.

And probably be a lot better off for it.

And organic eggs'd be cheaper.

Answer 5

I think people, celebrities everyone should do whatever it takes to make them happy. Everyone in control of their happiness. Just it takes some people more to make them at a higher level of happiness...I dont think anyone should be criticised for anything they do..Celebrities get an awful lot of stick but at the end of the day we all do crazy mental things. When Britney broke up with Justin and went a bit downhill well that was just human, she was gutted over him. Thats life, people do crazy things...theres nothin wrong with it. Livin life in the fastlane makes things interestin!
Do what you like, thats your life, you in control of your own destiny.

Answer 6

I can not think of anything worse than always having to smile all the time, just in case there is a photographer around, Yes it must be nice not to have to worry about MONEY, but, you have to ask yourself what`s all this fame and high living going to cost you and your family in the long run! I think I will continue as I am !!!!!!!!!!!!

Answer 7

I think the people you refer to are people just like you and me with the same problems and concerns and self-doubts. Life in the fast lane can be the fast lane to an early death.

Answer 8

we all need to realise how lucky we are ,theres always someone worse off than us ,count your blessings and remember theres more to life than fame and money .
a steady relationship and loving family and health ,money and fame simply cant buy that .
and yes the rich and famous are just as f-----d up as the rest of us ,possibly more so .

Answer 9

f**ked up and selfish they probably are.be cool to try it for a few weeks just to see though what its like to soar above the mundane.....
