This is no way compares... but...
When I was doing theatre avidly in Hawai'i, I felt the need to be "on" all the time. Because HI is so small, people would come up to me and talk to me all the time about theatre stuff. And, since I was representing a certain theatre at the time, I felt the need to be happy, chipper and positive all the time. (It gets old.) Once someone sat with Ralphie and I in our booth at a restaurant wanting to know everything about the production I was in blah, blah. It was very uncomfortable.
I can't imagine what it would be like to be a film star. Everyone would recognize you at all time... everywhere you went.... Yikes.
