Actually, they will. They will be getting a ton more exposure, a lot of people will know who they are, which may lead to somewhere. I know that can happen, as it happens a ton in this industry and others. But yes, staying home and complaining gets you places! Alone on Saturday night, playing video games, while others are actually doing something and enjoying.
No, they won't. They may become known faces within the little bodybuilding/fitness circle but they will never be famous. Take a long at the long list of top pro's and fitness "models". Other than Trish Status and Tori Wilson, what girls have ever become household names? Zero. As for the guys (other than Arnold), good luck.
Look at kevin Levrone -- he tried so hard to become famous using his bodybuilding accomplishments, and other than playing irrelevant parts in a couple of movies, he's done nothing. Now he makes embarrassing youtube video's of himself just because he cant' bare to think the few people that know who he is will forget about him.
As for me, Ron, I prefer spending my nights off from work with my future wife. Going to dinner, shopping, you know, things that help build and maintain a meaningful relationship. This as opposed to gulping down chicken breasts and egg whites while I inject every steroid under the sun and check myself out in the mirror every 5 seconds and bore people to death talking about my muscles and how strong I was today on bench press. Bodybuilding is a lonely, selfish path to nowhere that's full of ugly; it's all in the name of vanity -- which is a sin don't forget. It's all about insecure people wanting attention. They spam their pics all over bb.com and facebook, set up photo shoots to which most of them are paying the photographer for. All day long It's "all about me!" I see these idiots all over the place, they're a dime a dozen and 99 out of 100 of them don't have a chance in hell at going anywhere. The bodybuilding fitness industry is where failed athletes and models go. Fact.
