If fame isn't all that it's cracked up to be, then why...


  1. Do people keep becoming famous?
  2. Do people who say that they hate fame either return to the spotlight once they leave it or never leave it in the first place?
  3. Do people who say that they wouldn't want to be famous and/or don't like famous people continue to make people (especially famous people who they don't like) famous?

For example, why does this culture continue to create and/or endorse shows such as American IdolThe X Factor, awards shows such as the Golden Globes and Grammy Awards shows, and OWN's television programming? In addition, why do retired and done-with-Hollywood celebrities such as Garth Brooks, Michael Jordan, and Meg Ryan make comebacks all of the time? Furthermore, why are the Kardashians, Kayne West, Justin Bieber, Meryl Streep, Joan Rivers, Jennifer Lawrence, and countless other celebrities continued to be made celebrities by—for instance—being in the news in the first place, and continuing to be in the news? 


I'm not buying that fame isn't all that it's cracked up to be and/or that the price of fame isn't a great one (i.e., that the cost of fame is greater than its worth). Are you, and am I one of the few people—or maybe the only person—that doesn't buy that fame is worth less than its price?
