Sex on the Big Screen | I don’t know this for certain, having never experienced it, but I’m pretty sure that being famous sucks. When I do get to meet people with immense power or fame, they rarely seem happier than people I meet without it. These experiences lead me to never wish celebrity on anyone I care about.
