You will always pay a price for becoming famous, and the more famous you become the higher the price you will have to pay, especially for privacy security, and so much more...

While being famous can allow you to fulfill your dreams, there will be times you won't be able to leave your home. Your cars, homes and phones may be bugged. Tracking devices may be hidden in your cars, bikes following your every move.
You will need to relocate, perhaps with all your family, to a more secure location to avoid the paparazzi or other strangers who will be right up-in-your-face or hiding behind bushes following and documenting your every move. They will go through your trash. They will always be there to follow your rise and, sometimes, your fall from fame. They will be there until the day you die and rust me, when they take your picture they're not always looking for the most flattering shots.
People may hate you for a character you may have played or portrayed. They may despise you for whatever reason. While fans may love and adore you some may stalk you or camp outside your home. They will often pester you for your autograph. You may be tailed day and night by strangers, aka fans and the paparazzi, aka stalkarazzi forever.
It's getting much harder for famous people to have privacy these days especially when almost everyone carries a mobile phone with video recording capabilities which will capture your every move and actions. Finding people to trust is difficult and you'll soon know who your true friends are because the rest would sell you out at a price. There's no going back.
Once you are famous your celebrity status will rise and fall. Take a look at those who achieved the 'A' List before they fell to the 'Z' List. Today they're always trying to find tips and tricks to get back on the A List again. Others get there via sex and drug scandals, sex tapes leaked on the Internet or by fighting with other celebs or even with the paparazzi's just for the attention/press. It all helps.
A good agent, manager and publicist always helps and most of all talent. Once you are famous, the celebrity lifestyle is awesome, rub shoulders with the rich and famous, shop till you drop with designer cloths, flash cars, jewelry, and have power beyond your wildest dreams but most famous people would throw away their celebrity/famous status purely for a more peaceful and private life.
Most famous people will have other skills, jobs or a business as another source of income because they know fame can last for just 15 minutes. When you're famous you never know what's around the corner: you may fall out with your manager, work or band-mates, an injury could ruin acting work, you could lose your voice or even your marbles. These are a few reasons why fame does not last and pay for everyone all the time so think about what you really want to do. You can still be very rich and successful and still rub shoulders with the rich and famous without the fame but that's another story.

Sign me up...I have the fame bug
I would never want to be famous because I would hate feeling like I would somehow be punished for being myself. Steph
I, too, would never want to be famous, but that is as a "celebrity." I would not object to being well known for something worthwhile.
