a good point RASKOLNIKOV. But don't you feel that because they are famous that the press out their problems and report and embelish their escapades that we probably do but we are lucy enough not to be publicied about. Stress is in all our lives as you no and people do die young and in tragic circumstances, as you say, but perhaps we dwell on the famouse a little because in some way they are in our every day lives through their music, films the press etc.

I had not really thought about those we don't who die tragic etc, mainly beacaue I don't know them, so they have no impact on me.

As for being like normal people, not sure your right. We don't havr the press chasing and hounding us, reporting our sex, booze and drug anticks if we have them. We are not criticesd and stripped bare by the press and meadia and were not blamed for the kid who comitted suiced (ozzy has been)or the couple who kill because of a film (childs play)
we don't enemies or leeches selling lies or scrounging cash etc.

Fame - you can keep it, i'm happy as it is
