I agree - they know exactly what they're getting into. "I didn't think that becoming a celebrity would screw up my private life," said no one ever.

Oh, why yes, because children deserve to be harassed and stalked because they had the gall to be born to parents who are actors or musicians.

"It's cool being a celebrity but I'd still like to be able to go outside without some tubby dude with a camera trying to piss me off so he can sell a video clip of me acting angry to TMZ so a bunch of people can make fun of me."

    I apologize. "Gentleman of above-average girth, who might weight more than the average person in our skinny-normative society but still has feelings, y'know, and it's hard to get McDonald's burger juice off of a white shirt if you're out for the night trying to get Lindsay Lohan to do something embarrassing and you don't have time to, like, do laundry, and so would just appreciate it if you wouldn't make a big deal about the way he looks while he's busy making fun of other people."

  But that is how you make money! That TMZ makes people talk about you, which makes it more likely they'll show up on your concert / performance, buy your CDs or whatever.

> "I didn't think that becoming a celebrity would screw up my private life," said no one ever. I've actually seen lots of people say that (and, even more often, seen people say that they didn't expect the thing they did that led to their celebrity to lead to celebrity and then screw up their private life.)
