  Well, I have never thought about being a famous.I wouldn’t prefer to be a celebrity even if it brought to me money or fame.In my opinion, known people always can not be free and they can’t do what they want.So I want peaceful life and enjoy my life

  I wanted to be famous because I do not have friends as famous people don’t have friends. However, I am around famous people for a year and a half now, and you can’t imagine how miserable life is when seeing that everyone else around you is taking advantage of you. I have seen another perspective in life now, and I would love to be famous as the famous ones are the greatest teasers too. The hearted club is the best club as they are all linked. In conclusion, I Abdifatah Dawari, who claim to be and believed mentally that I was, am, and will always remain Elizabethan, is now seeing my beloves love thoughts and gratitude. “DIEU ET MON DROIT” GOD AND MY RIGHTS.
  What beautiful and lovely connotation to share with ❤️ instantly because “DIEU ET SON DROIT” I ❤️ AND I STOOD AND ALWAYS STAND FOR GOD AND HIS RIGHTS nevertheless, I respect the integrity and trust offered by my loves, to my nationwide loves.

  “a strong enough background.”

  i would like to be famous to meet celebrities and also i want to have a lot of money to give my fam better life

• firstssr says:
  

  I don’t want to be famous or meet celebrities.

  Being famous means that many people pay attention to you. You can’t do what you want. Because the country has high moral requirements for public figures and celebrities have great influence.

  Meeting celebrities is someone else after all It’s just a temporary pleasure for me I want to meet people with similar genes and experiences.

  No , i never want to be known as we get nothing out of it just disturbance and loosing the peace of mind which is the core of everybody’s aim in life.

• Adaline Bala says:
  

  Yes I would like to be a famous person, But not because of singing, dancing, acting or any other activities. Only because my kind actions which will help people in need, educate the illiterate, stop the war or take people to space and so on.

  As long as I feel comfortable being myself and concentrate what I am doing no matter how people judge, I don’t mind to be famous. However, when I become famous and felt being loved by all people, I am afraid I won’t going to let it go. And one day when I realised that not most of people like who I am and gradually people who ever liked me are leaving me then I would feel disappointed and lonely.
  If I could be famous, I would like to be famous for being a professional metallurgical engineer helping to resolve weld problems from all over the world using three language of Chinese, English and Japanese.
  It would be a good experience to be famous but I won’t like to be famous at risk of losing friends.

  In my opinion, I prefer no one. I just want to live how I live now. I enjoy my life. When I was a teenager, I wish to become famous Fashion Designer. Later, I thought that being famous is not good. You can’t be free. You can’t do what you want. I prefer peaceful life without fame, and popularity. Get your degree, find a good job, and live in your own life. You will never lose your friends.

• Amal says:
  

  I prefer to be unknown even if being a famous brings money ,or respect .

• marjan says:
  

  hi.
  i think most of people do every thing to be famouse because if you be a famouse person you will have alot of thing in your life reputation .money .popularity.you can have very good life and find very good best friend again and you never forget your best friend never and ever.maybe you lose something you had but if you be famouse person you will have a lot of new things you almost you want to have them in your dream
