“The advantages and disadvantages of being famous”

To be famous  is something most of us dream of. Think about those luxury cars, mansion, lots
of money, and millions of fans shouting your name. 
However, is it worth it? Is being famous good all the time?
Being famous has its advantages and disadvantages. You may be thinking a famous personality
or celebrity has everything in life , but in reality, there are also several disadvantages and
downsides of being famous.
Obviously the greatest advantage of being a celebrity is that you become richer. Generally,
fame brings a lot of fortune. They live in beautiful mansions or houses maintained by gardeners,
cook, housekeepers, and other servants.
Also, they can afford to buy the best clothes and everything they want, don’t need to worry
about paying bills, drive the newest car models, travel a lot, buy fancy gifts, spend their
vacations or holidays in the most luxurious resorts, and so much more.
Whether it is career-related or not, many different opportunities arise when a person becomes
famous. For instance, Kim Kardashian is not only renowned in the entertainment industry but
affords to lodge in newer businesses such as perfumes and apparel.
But the other side of this life is that you don’t have privacy, whether you like it or not, even
the most single detail about yourself, your family or love life will be the talk of the town, which
is why being famous is sometimes not a good catch. As soon as you enter showbiz, you need to
accept that your life is not just yours anymore – it is everyone’s. Even it is just about getting a
cup of coffee nearby or going to a supermarket, expect a group of people to mob and hound you
for pictures and autographs.
Also, people love starting a talk about celebs. It may not be a big deal sometimes, but in most
cases, people can say some foul things about you. This can eventually have a negative impact on
your life, your family, or your future. The worst rumor can be rumors about someone’s death.
In the end, I can say that being famous is both a gift and awful. You get to appreciate all the
material things you have and live a luxurious life as long as you want, but some things need to be
set aside like your privacy. Popularity can make or break you, and it depends upon you on how
to make the best use of this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
