I have no itching desire to be famous but I love this post. Good stuff!
Oh, and btw, maybe Johnny Depp had a hook up but he was bound to be famous. He's just too HOT not to be! :)

As usual, you beat me to a story: Paul Potts ... I also posted his first audition for Britain's Got Talent a few weeks ago.
Just the look on Simon Cowell's face, and (you can't see it very well in the little YouTude video) the tears running down the female judges face, tells it all: ANYBODY can achieve 'greatness' (whatever that means).
Just got back from NY ... still an amazing place ... lived there for a short while about 20 years ago.

Would wearing a bright red shirt count as No: 7? This was what was advised in a sales book I read some time ago. I think it makes sense. Still what do you think?

Another way is to be a celebrity baby. Has Suri Cruise landed a movie role yet?

Facts of Life a bad show?!? I tend to enjoy your posts but this is ridiculous! How can you say that? What is wrong with you? Did you not grow up watching the show?
I'm not sure reading this blog is a good idea anymore.
Is that going off-road enough? It seems for most people who are famous there is usually a little something that's different about them. (what would Cobain be doing today?)

I really agree with what BB is mentioning in his article, especially #6. If you do not project confidence in your abilities, then noone else will.
As far as being famous is concerned, it's funny how most stars of our age turn out to be crazy in the eyes of the media.. But based off this article, these people became stars because they were a little bit insane in my opinion in the first place.. Even my favorite actor Tom Cruise :-)

@Hunter: True, although I was unable after a little brainstorming how to figure out a way to recommend picking different, more famous parents...
@FFB: I watched hardcore, cutting edge shows like Blossom - her "very special episodes" were hardcore compared to the Facts of Life....
I actually should add I have absolutely no desire to be famous, but I do admire the drive of people who do. It's all linked up to the drive to be successful, which is one of the most admirable of human traits, I think. But do I want to be famous like Lindsay Lohan? Errr, not really. But I do admire someone like Paul Potts who takes a shot (and AJC, I beat you to the punch on that one but hey, you weren't even blogging yet!)

Great tips, I used to live in new york for many years, and you are right, you just keep on moving, like its not even there!

When we first came to NYC, everything caught our attention, even riding subway was a TRIP, our heads were swinging left and right, it's like being entertained live non-stop. Eventually we got used to it and stopped noticing and became like regular New Yorkers: keep moving!
