What is the price of fame?- есе /opinion essay/
Have you ever dreamed of being rich and famous? We can watch such persons on the news, we can see their photos in the newspapers and wish we could be them – rich, talented and admired. You might change your mind if you knew not only the advantages but also all the disadvantages there are to being famous. Yes, many people can find a lot of pluses of being famous and I want to speak about them.

          The greatest plus of their position in society is much money. Famous people live in big beautiful houses, buy best clothes, can afford to drive the latest car models, eat in good and expensive restaurants, etc. Secondly, they are famous and their names are known to everybody. You can visit the best celebrities and parties. Every day you receive many letters from your fans where they write how they admire you. It seems that we can see only positive aspects of being famous.

       But I think all these advantages are not the real life of this kind of people. Being famous is very hard work. When you are famous, many paparazzi follow you every day and every time. So you are under control every time, and if you do something wrong, everybody gets to know it. Famous people worry constantly about their reputation. Sometimes paparazzi follow celebrities and take pictures of them in unflattering and compromising poses. For example, Britney Spears spends a fortune on security, but it doesn’t help. Another disadvantage is much stress. You travel all day around the world, go to award ceremonies and other events. And if you have stress, you may have to take drugs and alcohol. Without taking drugs many stars wouldn’t have coped with stress.

       To be a successful and happy person is not only to be rich, to have much money. It also means to have friends, a family staying behind you, a girlfriend or a boyfriend, because without all these things you are lonely. But especially for famous people it is really hard to have many friends. It is difficult for them to know whom to trust. There are many examples when ex-lovers sell their private stories to newspapers. And the newspapers are prepared to pay a fortune for these photos, literally hundreds of thousands of dollars. Moreover, for example during a concert the clothes of famous people are very often stolen by their fans.

     I can say that their life is really dangerous. And it is much harder to be a child of a famous person. May be many people think that they can have whatever they want: many toys, expensive clothes and the best private school. Yes, of course it is true. But being a child of famous parents also means shortage of attention because their parents always visit night clubs, different restaurants; generally speaking they are always busy. They often have to hire a nurse to babysit with their children. And finally if you are famous and have a lot of money you constantly have to save it, because there are a lot of people who want to steal your money.
