What TF is a Celebrity?

Disclaimer: I went on a run yesterday with my cuzzo/road manager/trainer @SoloDoloNebo.  Even though it was probably less than a mile.  LOL.  I feel good.  The goal is to get abs.  I'm hosting all three shows in February shirtless!  Why not?!  And you guessed...  That has NOTHING to do with my blog.  Welp, here it goes!

I'm really trying to figure out what makes somebody a celebrity.  What makes people run for miles chasing a car just trying to touch somebody's hand or to get a pic?  It's confusing to me.  Those people are STILL people.  I thought about it and it could be that "surprise element".  The only reason I would stand in the freezing cold for a pic with a "celebrity" is if I thought I would NEVER see them again.  Like...  "OMG Rhianna is going to be in Greenville?"  That would make me flip.  But you see the point.  

Is it wrong to say, "I don't even want to be a celebrity"?  That term doesn't make sense to me yet.  "Celebrity status" only gives you an excuse to be snobbish from what I'm gathering.  My homie got 30k followers on Twitter, but only following back 15 people.  Why?  Because he's a celebrity.  This little girl asked to take a picture after the show, but he said, "I'm sorry.  I don't have time".  Why?  Because he's a celebrity.  Where are you going?  To the room.  

I don't even have a point for this blog!  Just something to think about.  Ma Dukes always tells me, "Shon, make sure you MAKE time for people"!  Yes ma'am.  So, is it possible to just be that cool guy who loves to perform and is really talented?  OR...  To be really respected and treated like "others", do I have to get to "celebrity status"?  #QuestionsNEEDAnswers.  Nobody wants to support you on the rise, but everybody wants to claim you when you make it!  But hey...  If you don't fight your own battles, God will fight them for you.
