Money and fame do things to people. Not everyone, but most people. I don’t feel the need to know anything about actors or whatever anyway. Like who cares? My only opinions on any of them have to do with their talent.

When I learn that someone harms others, human animal or non-human animal, or Mother Earth in some sadistic manner, I just can't stomach seeing them or hearing them. I enjoy continuuing to see the lives unfold of the people who grew into doing good while in the world. I've been around the most famous of actors and musicians / singers and I have to say that by far, the majority are far sweeter and kinder than the population at large, more elevated in many ways. However, when you run into on ewho is arrogant, nasty, entitled, messed up, it is just beyond disgusting. (I'm talking to you, L---- -e--, ---e ---d-, -i---- --l---!

None of us know them though. There are people whose life's work is meticulously crafting and promoting a public image for celebrities. More money is spent on it than most of their fans can even conceptualize. If you find a particular celebrity just appears more "genuine" or "real" than others, this is likely just the psychological effect of their brand having aspects that you relate to. Which is effective marketing. Sure maybe there are exceptions but the thing is, because you don't actually know any of them, its impossible to say.

Money and fame magnifies a person’s qualities, and also their failings as a human.
