I only say this because a lot of people seem to think that if you're a musician you want to be a celebrity. But most musicians in the world aren't celebrities, and pretty much everything about the concept of 'celebrity' is a complete load of bollocks anyhow.
So much has changed about the culture, it's so much more about money and celebrity. Celebrity not in the sense of people who achieve something, because in the old days, I think if you were famous it meant you were an achiever. Now it's the Kardashians.

The rules of Canadian engagement say that if we encounter a celebrity, we have to pretend we're not encountering a celebrity.
When you say you are a gamer and you are a celebrity or a former celebrity there's a grain of salt that everybody takes that with.
