Designers and companies bend over backwards to get those publicity shots of you decked out in their latest products. For one thing you get to lead a glamorous lifestyle on the guestlist for every event, endorsed by all the biggest brands, it’s ironic that some of the richest people in the world hardly have to pay for anything. It’s not all doom and gloom however, being in the public eye does have its perks. Then, if things take a turn for the worse, the fall from grace can be precipitous. It must be so easy to let the fame go to your head and start thinking you’re the best thing since sliced bread. Keeping your feet on the ground is no mean feat when you’re surrounded by so many hangers-on blowing smoke up your backside. They get their big breaks and rise to fame at such a young age then burn out in a blaze of glory for all to see. It’s no wonder so many child stars go off the rails in such a spectacular fashion. Being under constant scrutiny, having every aspect of your life dissected by the tabloids, it’s enough to drive you round the bend. Being in the limelight 24/7 can’t be good for your mental health. It really is a double-edged sword and it’s difficult to know if the pros outweigh the cons. The life of a celeb isn’t all a bed of roses, you know.
