Here's a better list: - Being under the public eye—all the time—is one of the top reasons to not be famous. Famous people must constantly self-monitor what they say and do because casual mistakes can trigger disproportionate backlash or headlines. - You lose the ability to have genuine, equal interactions—people treat you differently, with deference or expectation, rather than as a peer. - Privacy disappears as curious strangers can easily discover where you live, details about your family, and how much wealth you have—information you'd normally share only with people you trust. - Strangers form opinions about you before ever meeting you, based on whatever fragments of your public persona they've encountered. - A public persona can become a cage, limiting your freedom to change, experiment, or reinvent yourself. | ||
