Maybe you've heard the old 70's song -- the one that was a tribute to Vincent van Gogh.
"I could have told you Vincent,
that this world was never meant for anyone as beautiful as you"
Or something like that.
Well -- I'm not so sure that it was true. Instead, he might have just been a self-focused, dysfunctional man with emotional problems. Who happened to have a talent. Sort of like a lot of Hollywood-type celebrities are today. Not people who deserve to be admired -- just looked at.
If people were to actually meet many of their favorite celebrities (who they so admire) in real life: the experience would probably prove to be an extremely upsetting one. At least if the cameras weren't turned on at the time.
