Being Famous

[crzy67]

If you could be someone famous, in what profession would it be?

good question, but i don't need to be because i get to hang out with celebs a few times every few months... my uncle works in hollywood and i have gone out with ll cool j a few times.. man knows how to get at it!

Not sure if I'm that keen to be famous. When you see how little privacy the stars get, I'm not sure I'd want that kind of life.

Maybe just for a day or two. Hmmm....I'd probably want to be a famous extreme sports star - I don't think they suffer as much from the lack of privacy as some of the big movie stars.

I think if I was going to famous at something, it would be as a pilot. I've worked around Hollywood people and I don't lke anything about them, or their followers-same goes for pro athletes. Music groupies are just too much to deal with.

As a pilot, the sky, literally, is the limit. Don't like the aura? You can always change the locale.

How are you famous as a pilot? Do you mean like the pilot who landed the plane in the Hudson River? Or perhaps like Douglas Bader?

Yes, like Captain Sullenberger, or Howard Hughes (yes, he was a pilot), WW2 ace Dick Bong (shot down 40 planes), or pilots that became astronauts.

Recommend Douglas Bader too! Considering he flew with a wooden leg, I'd say he's got that iconic, famous status.

I wouldn't want to be famous. I don't crave the limelight and all the hassles that go with it. I prefer to pursue my career and sexual attainments out of the spotlight. Given that, I'd rather be famous in a non-theatrical way. I'd like to be the happy hooker, getting all the sex I can from men and women, get paid for it, enjoy my body and my life and my orgasms. And, of course, have it be legal so I don't have to worry about getting arrested. When the cops or detectives come to me, I want it to be so they can cum!

To be name recognized, other than that, I have to agree with Brigit, as a published author. Least that way you can remain, personally, in the shadows and under the radar (well to some extent) but still be famous. Of course, if you write a series of best sellers, you can also be rich!

It may seem to be off the subject of this thread to mention Bob Dylan, but it's not really because Dylan has written a book. He's a published author, as well as everythihg else he is. Here is a quote that Dylan made: "It's hard to be bitter when you're a millionaire." I think Dylan had mixed feelings about becoming famous and rich, given what he was writing and singing about. I think there was and still is a side of Dylan that he wishes he had remained relatively unknown.

Quite possible, Brigit, fame does have a price. I like to have a private life and don't want it on the front page of some rag everytime I pee, burp, cum, fuck, kiss or flirt. It's so hard today to have a private life when you are a public figure.

But it came out sounding like" him hmm hmm hum mm" '( the 1960's weren't kind to him )

But Myra, you're already famous.

[gobbledoc]

I think if I was going to be famous it would be as Casanova or John Wilkes He was a radical MP, journalist and later Lord Mayor of London who wrote pornographic poetry. And he was described as the ugliest man in England. But his charm was extraordinary: "With the start of a quarter of an hour," he said, "I can get the better of any man, however good-looking, in the graces of any lady." (He later amended this to half an hour modestly.) In an exchange with the Earl of Sandwich, who declared "Sir, I do not know whether you will die on the gallows or of the pox," Wilkes replied: "That, sir, depends on whether I embrace your principles or your mistress." His technique? Unfettered charm.
