Synopsis

We live in an age increasingly obsessed by fame and celebrity. Fame has become something to strive for in itself, a goal often divorced from specific achievements or talent. The media treat fame as something hugely desirable, and reinforce a view that those who achieve it are blessed and fortunate.

But does fame fulfil its promise? Is it everything it is reputed to be? David Gritten has asked the people who should know best - the globally famous. They mostly confirm that while fame may seem impossibly attractive from the outside, it can be a far more complex, troubling phenomenon when it enters your life.
