Mukha nga. Si Marco ba of Giniling si kornbip? Astig nga at nabuo sila sa pinakatanyag na rehearsal studio sa Kamias corner Kalayaan (kasi iisa lang siya doon ... PINOY PENGUIN studio), na pag-aari ni Doc Randy.
Actually, liking to be famous is a normal thing. Wanting to be famous is a bit of a stretch. Demanding to be famous is ridiculous.
Now I know why trying-hard Salieri envied the effortless Mozart.
Why is wanting to be famous a stretch? Yeah, I agree that demanding to be famous is absolutely ridiculous even if you did have the talent(hence the term rockstar) but is wanting to be famous so abnormal that it becomes a stretch?
Some kids want to grow up and become a doctor or an airline pilot while some want simpler things like to be the owner of a sari sari store or a pedicab driver. The kids who want to be famous either through theater, modelling, or music are no different from these "normal" kids with "normal" dreams.
They're also no different in terms of education. You have pilot school as you have acting school.
They're also no different in job opportunities. Doctors get paid as musicians get paid. You have high and low salaried doctors as you have high and low salaried bands. You have unemployed doctors (kaya nga nagaaral uli yung iba para maging nurse sa tate) as you have unemployed bands.
Is it aesthetics? Well, you have beautiful and ugly lawyers as you have beautiful and ugly actors.
So why is it a stretch? I understand that not all people can be famous but it's also the same as not all people can be doctors even if they wanted to.
In my view, wanting and being famous is no different than wanting and being in a profession that people consider "normal".
The thing to remember here is, a dream is a dream. But it will only remain as a dream if the person who dreamt it does not act to make his/her dream come true. If there was a stretch, then it would be in dreaming. Some people no longer dare to dream because they feel that the system in place will not allow their dreams to come true anyway. That is where they are wrong. Nothing is impossible. Nothing.
