I don’t have any friends and don’t have any intention of making any. People will stab you in the back, mistreat you, talk about me behind your back, steal from you.

When I’m living in the world of luxury and celebrity, which is where I found myself for a large part of my life, it’s a walk-on part. Not a vital necessity, like it is for so many people. I enjoy it but I can see right through it! Agnetha Faltskog

How many times have we seen reality celebrities fall from grace – often through no fault of their own – and then go on a show like ‘Celebrity Big Brother’ and say, ‘I want to show the public a different side of me.’ And I’m screaming at the telly going, ‘This is not therapy.

I’ve never liked the word ‘celebrity.’ I like to photograph people who are good at what they do. Annie Leibovitz

The superhighway of celebrity and showmanship is filled with debris. Douglas Brinkley

In fiction, imaginary people become realer to us than any named celebrity glimpsed in a series of rumored events, whose causes and subtler ramifications must remain in the dark.

Everyone has their own path in life, no matter if it’s being a celebrity or a singer.

I just loved music. Jake Owen

I know I have this level of celebrity, of fame, international, national, whatever you want to call it, but it’s a pretty surreal thing to think sometimes that you’re in the middle of another famous person’s life and you think to yourself, ‘How the hell did I get famous? What is this some weird club that we’re in?’ Kevin Costner

I like Lil Wayne’s style. His style probably influences me the most. Basically, he’s just wearing exactly what he feels like wearing. He goes to the club, and he’s got shorts and a wife-beater on.

I don’t conduct myself like a rock ‘n’ roll star in my day-to-day living. Am I a celebrity? Yes. Do people recognize me on the street? Yes, they do. But at the same time, it’s not a media center out here. People get used to you. Dee Snider

Celebrity is a big part of the American social system. I’m certainly grateful for what it’s done for me, but I do think that celebrity is overdone in our society. I think it’s got a dangerous side to it. Robert Redford

I think chatbots are the future of engagement between a fan and a brand or celebrity. Christina Milian

When I was about to be famous, I feared it on a few levels. I feared it because I didn’t want people to lump me in with those people who’d do anything to be famous.

I still get excited about meeting celebrities, because I don’t think I’m a celebrity myself. Allan Carr

For every R. Kelly or Bill Cosby or Harvey Weinstein, there’s, you know, the owner of the grocery store, the coach, the teacher, the neighbor, who are doing the same things. But we don’t pay attention until it’s a big name. And we don’t pay attention ’til it’s a big celebrity. Tarana Burke

I loved being a part of ‘Celebrity MasterChef.’ The process was scary and I was so out of my comfort zone but I’ve learnt so much. Doing something I’d never done before put me in the position of the celebs on ‘Strictly’ and because of that experience, I think i’ll be a better teacher because of it. A. J. Pritchard

I will never do ‘I’m a Celebrity… Get Me Out of Here!’ There are certain things you’ll do that you have some control over, but you should do things that leave your fate in the hands of others, too. Terry Wogan

Celebrity is a mask that eats into the face. John Updike

Celebrity is the advantage of being known to people who we don’t know, and who don’t know us. Nicolas Chamfort
