Oh To Be A Celebrity

A lot of us follow the lives of celebrities, even if we don’t like to admit we do. They’re fascinating, they’re living that lavish lifestyle that we all so desperately wish we could, and they’re loaded with money. But is being a celebrity all it is cracked up to be? Probably not. 

You’re pushed beyond your limits to give movie, song, play etc. producers exactly what they want. But, then again, they do get to ride around in the latest cars, and go home to their beverly hills mansions at the end of the day. There are also more low key celebs that seem to be living the life as well, without the drama of being in the limelight 24/7. So, if you want a little insight into the life of a celeb, no matter how famous they are, here it is.

The Fame
To be an actor, singer, famous blogger, whatever it might be, you have to love the fame. You have to love being in the media all the time, and you have to love people know everything about your business. Because everyone will know everything, the public seems to make it their mission to know every detail, and often they’ll create rumours. But the glamour of fame is something we can all admire. There is something so beautiful about being noticed pretty much wherever you go, it can give you a real confidence boost. Zulie is an actress, model, comedian, artist, and celebrity blogger, just like other actors, she doesn’t just stick to one profession. That is what gets people noticed all over the world. If you spread your wings and go into various different sectors of the celebrity world, you’ll reap the rewards in many ways. But being successful in all of these areas isn’t easy, and it takes a lot of hard work. That is what people seem to take for granted, they think celebs have it easy, when in reality, they’re working their socks off day in day out.

The Fortune
This is one of the reasons why so many people try and head to the bright lights of stardom, the money is just so so good. If you do it right that it. In the beginning you’ll most likely be struggling to get by, you’ll have to sacrifice a lot, and often it can not be worth it at all. On average, A-listers earn over $100 million a year. That is such an eye watering amount for the most of us who won’t even make that in a lifetime. The world would truly be your oyster with that amount of money.

The Downfalls
The major downfall of being a celebrity is having pretty much no private life no matter what. There will be people following them everywhere, whether it be paparazzi or fans. You’ve also got the long hours travelling, working long hours, and the criticism you might face if you do something wrong. Having such a open life also makes it hard to have a private love life, something a lot of celebs are never successful in.
