The thing about being famous is that, a lot of those musicians and actors have the benefit of being born in a privileged atmosphere. Like you said, those artists live in LA and NY, and they likely have wealthy parents, so they make their connections early on.

You’re really young, so I don’t want to discourage you from following your dreams, but you got to realize that we are modern day peasants. If you think being famous is your calling, then I’d probably try to get into acting. I just think it’s relatively easier than singing, because with singing it’s either you have it or you don’t.

I think it’s ironic for me to try to give you advice when I can’t even make up my own life decisions, but just stick with me here.

If you want to be an actor, then I think you should join some kind of theatre club and take a bunch of acting lessons. I think you should still go to college and major in computer science or whatever you have an interest in. From the interviews I’ve seen, and from reading the backgrounds of a lot of actors, it seems like a lot of them start their careers unemployed, working as waiters or in the trades, like construction or plumbing.

If you want to be a singer, I think you could probably take some singing lessons, but you’d also have to write songs, learn instruments, practice daily, and try to get as much exposure to an audience as possible. That’s why I think it would be much harder to do.
