i think the thing people are actually noticing when they say "fame changed you" is less that attention makes complex people more conceited or one-dimensional and more that the more your existence is a commodity to be bought and consumed, the more people who think your likeness is a piece of theirs, the fewer escape hatches you get to experience genuine vulnerability. ubiquity is terrifying. somehow i cannot imagine anything lonelier than being known by everyone.
