“In Los Angeles, as I gained and lost celebrity, then gained it again, I often found myself wondering why I, out of thousands like me, had become famous.”

I think dreams can come true, but not necessarily like fairy-tales. It's not always so perfect like that.
Why am I so famous? What am I doing right? What are the others doing wrong?
I don't know if this is the kind of retrospective analysis that people are fond of applying to their work or actions, but it feels like I knew I was going to be famous and I knew that an element of that would be traumatic, so that if I could make myself something big and otherworldly, it would be a kind of defence.
Most of my life I have played a lot of famous people but most of them were dead so you have a poetic license.
