On Fame

Here is a tip for any of you out there thinking of becoming famous. You have to prepare yourself for the fall before you get into the thick of it. When you begin your ascension to stardom you must know deep down that once you have made it to the top the adoring public will be willing and quite happy to tear you down. This is just human nature. People feel great about supporting a winner, but love even more to turn a winner into a loser. That fall from grace makes a lot of people feel really good about themselves. So, know that this will come and enjoy the ride. Have fun with your downfall. Even ham it up like your a wrestler. Of course, this does not give you license to sell out to major corporations like The Who, Rolling Stones or Led Zeppelin have in allowing their songs be used to sell cars, clothes and a way of life far from what they espoused in their younger days. Then again, they are really old and need a retirement home in Monaco.
