The Tru Greatness of Fame

            
             Many people grow up idolizing their favourite actors and actresses. Some follow in their footsteps and fantasize about being a rockstar, rap legend or actor. Few of those people reach their goal of being important and love all of the attention and money that they can get. Until they see the true reality that comes with the ever so wonderful package called fame.
             Some celebrities enjoy the attention but usually it goes too far. Eminem(Marshall Mathers) is one person who I know of that truly hates the attention and all of those people who always come up to him to shake his hand and bug him when he's eating lunch with his daughter or making use of public bathrooms. Then there are those celebrities, such as the royal family, who are born great. They come into this world famous and there's nothing they can do about it. The Paparazzi stalks them and exposes them to the world. Some people say that's the reason of Princess Diana's death.
             The media, specifically news reporters, do anything and everything they can to get all of the latest "scoop" about important and popular people. Whenever something important happens there will usually be lots of news reporters and cameras swarming the situation to squeeze as much information out of it as they can. This alone could cause a hectic situation, but then there is the Paparazzi that on any given day would go out looking for celebrities and stalk them. They would invade their personal lives and follow them around. I've personally seen footage of celebrities such as Pierce Brosnan start getting physical with those photographers because they got too close. The Paparazzi does things like this to get celebrities to act in angry manners and to capture their wild sides.
             The most recent of this footage I've seen was of Brittany Spears "flipping the bird" and swearing. They purposely try to make these people look bad. I've also seen footage of Jim Carrey's secret and private wedding.
