Sanju 1,504 Posted January 21, 2018 Share Posted January 21, 2018 At the time of hearing it, and still relatively now I'm taking it in a pretty literal sense of, amongst the growing popularity and fandom, that it wont destroy the passion and creativity to keep doing what you love to do.

rumours 45,521 Posted January 21, 2018 Share Posted January 21, 2018 She clearly didn't get her flu shot, so she must pray the flu virus (The Fame) doesn't make her very sick. Spoiler Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sailor 3,321 Posted January 22, 2018 Share Posted January 22, 2018 She wants the fame, and adores what comes with it, but hopes that the negative side doesn't take her life. I guess the same way it took the life of Marilyn Monroe, Amy Winehouse, etc. bannedT for life and it's SAD Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Melania K Trump 6,302 Posted January 22, 2018 Share Posted January 22, 2018 Oh god that quote still gives me chills, one of my all-time favourites. It's basically the hidden theme of Paparazzi: I hope the trials and tribulations of fame do not burden me to the point of no return. Current First Lady of the United States. Praying for my husband's death. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonathan Florencio 981 Posted January 22, 2018 Share Posted January 22, 2018 I think she meant that she hopes fame doesnt take away her passion + her free will to walk around without a hundred people next to her, which was a problem she suffered recently.

Pop Music 20,540 Posted January 22, 2018 Share Posted January 22, 2018 within the paparazzi and the popularity i'm gonna try to keep my values and try to not let the fame turn me into a monster Pop Music and Lady Gaga forever! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
PunkTheFunk 124,469 Posted January 22, 2018 Share Posted January 22, 2018 I'm reminded of Princess Diana who was chased down by paparazzi ("flashing lights") to her death. The fame literally took her life. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sailor 3,321 Posted January 22, 2018 Share Posted January 22, 2018 Remember in FF2 when she was listing off all the people she wanted that performance to remind people of, and she referred to Diana as "you know who" She obviously still feels really strongly about this subject and I love her for bringing it to light so much in her earlier work. bannedT for life and it's SAD Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miel 15,009 Posted January 22, 2018 Share Posted January 22, 2018 Paparazzi, personified, except the more tragic side of it. The perfect lead-in to TFM. 3 points in and ready for more Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShockPop 7,747 Posted January 22, 2018 Share Posted January 22, 2018 For the next thread about a quote can you choose something that's not literal? "I like pizza." "Oooo what could it mean?" Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
