Do you think fame/ success changes people? I know its a hard question to answer; but do you think success has a personal impact?

Yes.
Oh without a shadow of a doubt. I doubt Justin Hawkins (sorry - lame example I know) was always so cocky when The Darkness were in their garage-jamming days. When people know they're popular enough to call the shots, that's when it starts changing them.
For sure.
I'm not saying that everybody is affected by fame, but it must be really hard to not be affected by fame and stay down to earth. I respect anybody who manages it.

no.
Got nothing to back me up, but no.
To most people it does, I guess.

I think the answer in most cases is yes. There may be some exceptions, but basically people's minds work in similar ways in similar situations.

Funny , I think its when you are alienated and no one likes you you become a huge bastage. Looks like both end of the spectrum sucks :(

Yes.
all because that person is put under different circumstances and pressures and only a few of the strong willed ppl remain the same or turn out better. at least that's what i think!

Definitely. It has to...not necessarily in a negative way; but I'm being very very literal here.

"Fame" and "success" do not remotely mean the same thing. Fame is not something I would desire.

When does success, or fame, not have a personal impact? :strung:
I got more then you
And you can set it free
I can catch the moon in my hand
Don't you know who I am
Remember my name, FAME!

It does to some. Beckham used to be a very down to earth person, and now hes a cross dressing tit. Look at jony wilkinson his annual earning potential earning power is 5 mil and hes still the same.
