If fame is a by product that's fine but just remember all the sh*t that goes with it. Unfounded rumours about weird tastes in sex, getting pestered by mingers (as well as babes), hatemail and freaky fanmail, psychotic stalkers, getting slagged off in the press, becoming the butt of comedians jokes, having to do PAs when all you want is a quiet pint. As it happens, I saw George Michael in a local restaurant the other night. All he wanted was to have a quiet meal but these teenage girls were getting in his face..literally. At one point he was about to take a mouthful, when a load of this girl's hair fell onto his plate ..while still on her head though. He was well p*ssed off I tell you. :eek:

I'm in it for the money. It's a gamble. Anyway, if I ever become a popstar and complain about teenage girls bugging me while I eat my lunch, I hope there's somebody there to break my teeth while asking me why the **** I didn't eat in then.
