Just yesterday I was saying that Rumer Willis is desperate--DESPERATE--to be famous. Not that that's a tough one to call, I mean, I half expect to open my front door one day and see her there, that's how ubiquitious she's becoming, but little did I expect to have my words validated quite so quickly. Sure enough, on today's People.com comes the headline: "Rumer Willis Says Fame Is a 24-Hour Job." As is being a famewhore, I suppose.
In the fascinating piece, The Chin tells People that she understands the responsibility of being famous and she's up for the challenge of those nasty bloggers making fun of her (oh, good--I always prefer to get permission):
"Before I started working, I would have said, 'You know, it's not really fair, because I didn't choose this.' But when you decide to be a part of this profession and put yourself out there, then you kind of have to accept what it is."
See what she did there? Slipped in the part about how she's a working actress now and she's wise to the ways of fame, even if that means never eating cheese fries in public again:
"It's a 24-hour job. It doesn't matter if you are going out to a restaurant – you have to be aware of what you are doing and how you look and how you are presenting yourself, because most of the time people never get to know you."
Oh, does she mean like dyeing her hair platinum blonde (for a whole week) to get attention? Is that what she means by being aware? Geesh, can her head get any bigger?
