Even from an early age the majority of people want to become famous, to have lots and lots of money in order to do what they please, to be well-known all over the world. But almost every one of them doesn't take into consideration the disadvantages of being famous.
You don't have a single moment of privacy as you are always on the spot lights and paparazzi follow you everywhere. You can't simply walk on the streets, without wearing make-up as you are afraid that somebody will take you a picture which will appear in the next day's newspaper.
Furthermore, you become obsessed with being watched all the time. Your family and your friends feel they don't hold control over them due to the cameras and the flashes that blind them all over the place. They get to suffer
because of people's desire to find out even your darkest secrets.
Nobody is really interested in finding out what you did well in your life, whether you helped or not somebody in need, or if you graduated the University. They all want to know how many boyfriends you had, if they cheated on you or what clubs you like.
Even if all of us want privacy we can't help wondering what the neighbor or the man across the street is doing. But all these should have a limit. There are many persons who got depressed due to this "deadly" habit of the reporters who don't respect anything or anyone, who spend hours and hours digging your past so as to make your life a living hell.
More and more VIPs find a refuge in drinking, smoking and drugs, getting a life time addiction which can cause them their death.
So fame destroys lives and in the majority of the cases the consequences are rather terrifying for the persons who can't stop others to interfere in their lives.

This is a recent phenomenon, since the advent of the omnipresent, intrusive mass media. It had led to a dumbing down, and a celebration of non entities.
It used to be fun to be famous, because before globalisation and even before TV, you could always go on holiday in obscurity.
I think we don't need to be famous now, because as Warhol predicted, we all get out 15 minutes anyway.
