Now, like any family some have come from tougher backgrounds, but some did not have it at all the way you are saying and still do projects from Daytime Soaps to movies to albums to television. Not everyone is the same. I am sorry too that you have had a rough childhood, but you can get help for that. Learning the arts is more than your background. Different skills sets work well with certain people and not well with certain people pending on their mind set. I know incredible composers, decent actors and producers that are NOT all the same, not all abused and believe it or not...some do not even do drugs, OH MY! |

anonanon User ID: 930273 United Kingdom 03/30/2010 11:21 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Some have, some haven't. Leno, Letterman, and O'Brien were not and they are the most successful talk show hosts in the country. Neither was Johnny Carson. The biggest secret is that the ones who are wealthy today managed not to spend every dollar they made as fast as they made it. Fame is a very fleeting thing and few last more than a few years. Unfortunately, most spend wildly while the money is coming in and end up without much later. |

Quoting: Stefani 923825Best Wishes, Stefani you can get off my tv and internet screen at any time. I didn't know you had no choice in whoring yourself to media corporations and mtv and making your videos one big fucking advertisement. Yep, real talent there. |

Simply Retelling of Old "Classics" with Flash..... You pick a "Movie", TV show, Or "CD" and i can tell you the "Classic" or "Classic's" it's stolen from..... |

That video and lyrics have always freaked me out...

Anonymous Coward User ID: 930276 United States 03/30/2010 11:43 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Sorry, but I don't believe you, Stefani. I think acting is a talent many are born with. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 902591People born to act? That doesn't sound right to me. The mere idea of acting is to put yourself in somebody's else's shoes and read a script. In the process of doing that you lose sense of yourself, in fact most acting coaches want you to lose yourself in the moment to become the character! Many actor's and actresses go to great lengths to make their roles seem believable. They will lose/gain weight, cut off their hair, wear makeup and props to make themselves look entirely different, and do whatever it takes to get the role and win a movie award. Acting allows you be easily manipulated, you become a puppet, for anyone who want's to see you as a different character. I guess the best actors and actresses know how to manage their lifes off screen, but in most cases they all seem to live troubled lifes and end up OD'ing, especially childhood movie stars. Why do you think that is? It's because acting is used as a mind control mechanism! |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 701520 Canada 03/30/2010 11:51 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | First off..... If you are born a jew, you have one up on the comp. second... If you are a girl who is even remotely good looking you score another point third... If you have no problem getting comfy on the casting couch, score another. four... If you are the child of former or present celebrities score again. five... If your family is already wealthy score some more. For every "famous star" there are a thousand unknowns who have more talent but do not have the above mentioned criteria. |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 902591I have seen many actors and musicians learn the craft/art of their choosing even people in radio, but there is something that you can JUST NOT TEACH and it is called NATURAL TALENT. I have seen people get degrees in screenwriting, music composition, drama and on and on and again, so may know the rules and skills, but will never "HAVE" it. Those that HAVE it are usually born with it or discover it, but do not LEARN it. You can improve your skills and talents but again, I can teach you EVERYTHING about drums and percussion and you still may never be able to carry a beat. I can teach you body language that actors SHOULD be aware of and yet people still screw it up. You can come from any background and still have or not have talent. |
Anonymous Coward 03/30/2010 11:55 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | This would have been a better post if you hadn't signed a name to it, OP. The true story is sometimes merely that someone accepts a deal... Sometimes there's no past molestation involved. You industry conspiracy theorists have really got to get out of the Freud sex mentality of psychology. Sometimes people believe there's no other purpose for them and they make whatever deal they can to be famous. |

Sorry, but they are not mind controlled any more than you or I am. People with careers. |
