Random question: What if someone said "here's $20M....
....BUT along with that money comes the headache and heartache of the life of a celebrity...no more privacy, you're every move printed in a tabloid, pics of you everywhere, etc"
Would you take it? I was thinking to myself the other day after seeing all the bull$hit that Lindsay Lohan's life, Paris Hilton's life, Nicole Richie's life brings...would i want to live like that??? I dont think i would...

Not for $5M. You could barely buy a house worthy of your celebrity for that!

Re: Random question: What if someone said "here's $5M....
No I wouldn't want to live a life like that, but I think in the examples you used they all did it to themselves.
I look at celebrities like Mandy Moore and Celine Dion, both manage to stay out of the public eye and are doing fine.
Heck, when's the last time you saw a picture of CD's son? Most likely you haven't seen one, there's a reason for that. She keeps him out of the spotlight.
People like Paris and Nicole and Lindsay look for it. At least it seems that way to me.

right but thats why i'm asking about their lifestyles in particular. would it be worth the money for you to have the paparazzi chasing you and watching you're every move?

I would definitely do it!!
If these young women made better choices, the paparazzi would quickly tire of them, and they would still have their $$ and less problems!!

Re: Random question: What if someone said "here's $20M....
i, too, feel that many of the people who are followed by the paparazzi is because of the things they do.
money or no money, i'm pretty tame. so they would tire of following me.
i'd take it.

Re: Random question: What if someone said "here's $20M....
more than 20M...that's not enough.

I understand what you're saying but I think the examples you sited (Lindsay, Paris, Nicole) are not really fair. Their lives are full of BS b/c of what they do not much based on how much they have. They're all in the spotlight for the wrong reasons.
There are pleanty of millionaires who stay out of the spotlight and don't have photographers following them around b/c they don't do anything to attract attention, negative or positive.
To answer your question. Maybe for 20 million, I suppose I wouldn't mind being followed/photographed. I think my lifestyle would bore them after awhile though.

Sure! But I wouldn't lead the celebrity life- I like to be in bed by 11 latest. I would travel a lot with DH.

Yes, I would. But my life is boring, they'd get tired of me after awhile. I would be like one of those celebs you see once in awhile, like Sandra Bullock.
