I think that is mainly what turns famous people to find comfort in escape and do drugs. The hate and the absolute knuckle dragging ugly is so thick out there, we know that. We see it all over and it's become the norm.

I feel really bad for young talented kids that rocket up to stardom - most will not come out from it well.
