Joe Rogan | The Desire to be Famous

I guess we just found that patently ridiculous well we like you know we we grow up I grew up hearing the word a lot from my my dad what is your dad like not like much anymore he's dead Thanks 1979 sorry dude 1979 it's okay but no as I always say he was mad there are no better parents than dead parents they can't [ __ ] you up and yeah that's right but my dad that was a real really fond of that word in English there's no Canadian a full Canadian but being Canadian is kind of like being rush let's have English people on your money stuff yeah yes and we get all the English movies on English TV show we we pledge allegiance to the Queen in school you know still and in our sleep so many good things about Canada yet so many preposterous things yes true it's the fact well the fact that a monarchy still exists at all is preposterous yeah is great on paper yeah yeah well the monarchy even itself has become car - inna fide well yeah right like it but didn't they weren't they always I guess they were I mean like tell us in two days and yeah or even just back to Henry the eighth I'm sure what what maintained the the monarchy other than the fact that people wanted celebrities and those the only celebrities they had right and and the priests and I think Henry the eighth also had a sim plants yes he did yeah yeah Wow yeah good for him progressive yeah it's ahead of his time yeah that that is an interesting thing it's like the Prince Charles lady Di's saga was essentially one of our first reality things to enjoy yeah yes that was madness yeah and it happened it was so huge and then someone said well what if we just make housewives in Orange County royalty mmm and and you don't have to pay them as much as the king and queen you can cancel them yeah those shows are wonderful there had never seen an episode of any of their fascinating the Beverly Hills one is there well there's different versions of them right and different versions yet to see the geographical creepiness of Atlanta yeah yeah Atlanta's not a bad one the worst one was Jersey they're [ __ ] savage people yeah that's my ancestors those [ __ ] savage monkey photos yeah I'm the worst anything kind of version the worst of anything the worst the worst penicillin is the jersey penicillin you know CSI Jersey was terrible by the way no that doesn't exist yeah the Beverly Hills one all of them were fascinating it was take take people force them in these situations were they gonna have his artificial disputes well it was crazy to me is watching people succumb to the pressure of all that attention when they've never experienced it before and then you're gonna just thrust them into this massively popular you know yeah for lack of a better word confessed yeah right well if you take a chance yeah and you divorce it of any supporting sort of supporting under you know talents structure yeah or there's no offering there's no painting no sculpting they take yeah because Fame will destroy if you're a brilliant artist Fame will destroy you yes if there's nothing underneath the fame it's there's nothing to hold it up well I remember watching kelsey Grammer's wife I'd met her before she seemed like a very nice lady Camille yeah Camille and then she forgot her name thank you I didn't want to just contact owner he was a huge Camille thing I'm riot I tattoo I was gonna say do you have a tattoo but she decided to play the heel and the prat it was so obvious that the pressure was just overwhelming the hatred that was coming her way you know she had decided she was gonna be the boss [ __ ] on the show just let everybody know you know this is how it is and I'm here to run things and yeah just a swamp of evil that came her way and she's like uh quit done [ __ ] the show she bailed out of it good for her yeah well even change that role or was it like a producer is it well according to Kelsey he told her like hey okay this is what you've always wanted here like because that's like what led to their divorce or what was happening during yeah them getting divorced you know he essentially said you know this is what you've always wanted like I don't think you understand this so good luck with it and then you know she just kind of vanished afterwards like [ __ ] all this which is wise on her part she she recognized what it is but they're like those those people that are on it like I know some people who know some folks that are on the show yeah and it's they just go crazy they start up popping pills and losing their mind they're in therapy every day and it's just madness yeah the desire for fame with nothing more to it than other than a desire to be famous yeah can only drive you insane yeah I think fame fame as a as an emergent property of doing something right is bearable it's ironic but it's so strange and so difficult to truly manage yeah but you can at least say I don't define myself by the fame I divide myself by the work that created the fame yes whereas if there's no work underneath it it's you know it you only exist in so much as people are aware of you you exist in those moments when you walk into a room and everyone's staring at you yeah that's what you look for and that's it I have that anyway because of my body so I guess you know real Fame yeah and your and the horrible allergy you have to pants that's true I can't wear pants and yeah every time I walk in a room well I always said like that that that fame is a property of the beholder not to be held and that that fame only exists along with somebody in the room knows who you are right and a minute you're in a room where no one knows you your fame evaporates that is one of the weirdest interrogations I've ever gotten is when people go why do these people know you who are you who are you know take a photo with you they're somebody but I don't know who the weird thing is they're almost offended that other people know you and they don't yeah like why are you're playing a game with me this wears white why don't I know you there's angry yeah well they're also there's other thing about famous that people feel like there just start talking to you yes yeah yes yeah just you can sit next year oh yeah you could be in the middle of an intense conversation with the your favorite person on the planet they have a farm now why do you they've been in their house I said living room I had a guy come to me in the street and just go hey Dave how you doing and I thought no one must know him says that oh I'm good how are you doing man and his next line was you don't even know me a [ __ ] phony baby that was me that was you I wish I was better at faces was this in Canada this was in downtown LA real ins amazing I even know me a [ __ ] phony I'm just trying to be nice yes was he a drunk no it was like he was a guy you just gonna pretend I know him just watch this Wow was that the end of the conversation yeah that was basically it Wow yeah what a rude person that's a terrible conversation it's like the guy who auditioned for News Radio in 96 just never gotten over it yeah that [ __ ] [ __ ] yeah one one I was on my way to stardom yeah and to be fair was me yeah tripped him up
