Being famous is often described as a blessing, but in this list of 10 famous people, the dream of being a star or celebrity can be a curse.
1. “I’m the most over-exposed person in the world.” – Tom Cruise
In 1983, Tom Cruise burst onto the scene with a breakout role in Risky Business. Since then, he has been one of the top box office draws in Hollywood and continues to star in blockbuster after blockbuster. He is one of the most recognizable faces on Earth and has appeared on more magazine covers than anyone else in history. But he’s sick of it all. “It’s like living in a fishbowl,” he says.
2. “I never want to be that famous ever again.” – John Travolta
John Travolta was one of the biggest stars in Hollywood in the late 1970s, but his career had slowed down considerably by 1990; that is until Quentin Tarantino cast him as Vincent Vega in Pulp Fiction and revitalized his career. Since then, Travolta has continued to enjoy stardom and success, particularly with his role as an airline pilot in 2004’s The Flight Plan. However, he has no desire to return to his level of fame
Can you imagine being so famous that everywhere you go, people start screaming and chasing you? That is what it’s like to be one of the world’s top actors.
In this article, we will look at the lives of some of the world’s most popular actors and actresses. They tell us what it’s like to be famous and how they deal with it.
Daniel Radcliffe is best known for playing Harry Potter in the eight movies based on J.K. Rowling’s books. He was just 11 years old when he was cast as the wizard-in-training, and he has been in the public eye ever since.
“I’ve always had a problem with being recognized,” Radcliffe says. “I think that’s to do with the fact that I just don’t really understand why people are interested in me.”
Radcliffe has had difficulties with paparazzi β photographers who follow celebrities around in order to take their photos and sell them to newspapers or magazines. “It makes me feel very uncomfortable,” he says, “and I don’t know how to deal with it.”

The most famous people in the world are not the best actors. You can find better ones in community theater.
The most famous people in the world are not even necessarily in movies. The most famous person in the world might be Oprah Winfrey. But Oprah is not an actor, and for all her fame, she never won an Oscar, which is a prize specifically for acting.
So what is fame? It’s hard to define, but we know it when we see it; you could say that fame is a kind of visibility.
The most visible people on earth are movie stars. So fame and stardom in Hollywood really do go together.
It takes real acting ability to turn yourself into someone elseβto make the audience believe that you are the character you are playingβbut it’s also a big help to be beautiful or handsome and stylish, and to have a storybook life that intrigues the public.
