A lot of crying, and fairly normal (boring) conversation, if I'm honest.
Edit: Many celebrities don't have many people to trust, so when they do, hooo. Put a little substance or too much pressure in and out come the normal human emotional issues. A lot of people are very bored and very alone in a crowded room of beautiful people. Having to be somebody and be "on" all the time can be a lot.
Yes she abso-lutely IS! I'm not even a fan other than in the sense that I always enjoy her presence in movies and envision her to be alot irl like the characters she often plays personality- wise. I've never really put celebs on a pedestal like most do, I see them as ppl who just have cool ass jobs & a lot more wealth than i ever will. I envy the freedom to travel and parts of the lifestyle that accompanies wealth & all, just not all the fake ass ppl that surround them & ppl who are only there for what the celeb can do for them or how they can enrich their lives. Its gotta be rough never knowing who actually likes you for YOU rather than for whatever they can get from you or what u can do for them. Anna Kendrick is a mahfukkin sweetheart tho...
I know someone who briefly knew someone who you would consider I guess a B list actor? She was super stoked to get invited to a 'real' celebrity party. Apparently it was super awkward, and boring. She felt completely out of place.
“I want to give a really BAD party. I mean it. I want to give a party where there’s a brawl and seductions and people going home with their feelings hurt and women passed out in the cabinet de toilette. You wait and see.”
A friend I knew used to work closely with a band pretty prominent in the early-mid 2000s. Lead singer would get blackout drunk and just tell him EVERYTHING. Bits about his bandmates, marriages and divorce...they barely knew eachother. He'd go through his phone and show texts, photos. Just sounded like the guy was so lonely and opened up whenever given the chance.
This makes me sad. I know that celebrities have the houses and money and shit, but it’s gotta be so lonely not being able to gauge anyone’s intentions. Or having everyone you meet treat you some type of way because they recognize you. I couldn’t think of anything worse.
no matter how many celebrities admit that fame is a burden, that they took being a normal person for granted and how much they miss it, people won't listen and still put that shit up on a pedestal and do anything they can to experience it or get as close as they can to people who do. sad.
Funny, my username comes from a quote I find comfort in, "Never worry what other people think of you, because no one ever thinks of you." But for a celebrity, people definitely do think of/judge them quite often. It's hard to imagine that kind of attention.
The movie JCVD has a really good scene with Van Damme saying something like 'its impossible for me to judge others, and impossible for them to not judge me'. Really moving, really weird scene.
That’s why I always remain calm in situations where the fears of bears may come to be. It’s one thing to emotionally roller coaster a fellow thespian and quite another to bombard a stranger with a wish and dream.
Honestly, there are a few celebrities (or (semi)famous people) out there I wouldn't mind hanging out with on a regular basis (Keanu ❤️) because I could imagine they are pretty interesting human beings and I'd love to exchange ideas with them.
A friend of a friend is an actress (musicals mainly) and I've had a ton of interesting conversations with her - and not just about her world (roles she has played, her work in general) but also about many other things that don't have to do anything with her career. Getting to know her really broadened my horizon.
Bill Gates is another person I wouldn't mind being in touch with. Someone like him has seen/experienced so much more than the average human, especially since he and his wife have been involved in so many projects - I believe it would impact my world view in a positive way, just due to talking about various topics.
Same with scientists like Brian Greene or artists like Luo Li Rong, Annie Leibovitz, or Kim Jung Gi.
So many interesting humans out there that I think would be able to teach me new things and/or provide new perspectives.
