Why do people want to be famous?

What is common to all dreams of fame is that being known to strangers emerges as a solution. People may want to be famous because it can seem to offer many benefits, such as. Reputation: People may think well of you before you even meet them, and you won't need to constantly make your case Admiration: You may receive warm smiles from strangers and be the object of flattery. Safety: You may feel safe from rejection and won't need to win over everyone you meet. However, fame can also have negative effects, such as. Mental health: The pressure to maintain fame can lead to burnout and exacerbate existing mental health issues. Substance use: The stress of fame can lead some people to use drugs or alcohol to cope, which can lead to substance use disorder.
