What are your thoughts on Fame?
No, not the Movie/TV show.
I'm talking the phnomenon that goes along success and stardom, like you see in TV, Movies and sports.
If you see a famous person on the street, how do you react? How about if you saw them in a restaurant?
Does the public 'have a right' to their lives?
Where does the famous person's responsibility to the public begin and end; or is there any responsibility?
On CP I've watched how people react to Roger's threads, or Ference's threads. I've seen people mention how they know where players live, but won't say in respect to the players. I've also seen how people respond in the Tom Cruise thread (myself included).
So what about 'fame'? Do you care? Just a bit curious? Celeb's **** you off?
