Not true. Technology changed everything. People 1,000 years from now will be able to watch film and docs about guys like Brady and Jordan. Their legacies will last forever.Where do you think the Olympics came from? Mankind has always put the star athlete on a pedestal.The same could be said for actors, musicians, and playwrights from antiquity as well. Some things never change.
Rockstars arent just reserved for the hair metal bands of the 80's. You dont consider bands like U2, Aerosmith, or artists like Madonna or Elton John rockstars?
I am surprised nobody said IFBB athletes rep.Imagine the perks.
GetBig-Moderator or getting "teh Blue stars" would be superior to everything, being President, Rockstar, Rocketscientist, Movie star, Astronaut and whatnot.
Becoming a mod is on my bucket list.I may have to contact the Make A Wish foundation at this point.
Actually actors and musicians have only recently been placed on a pedestal. When our society became more leisurely, and cinema and music production became more advanced, we put more of a premium on entertainment.Acting was considered a lowly profession. And musicians, were just a footnote. Not to be taken seriously.
Maybe music wise, but they had famous actors in antiquity. The ancient Romans loved watching plays and other artistic forms of expression. Why do you think they had amphitheatres?People say the acoustics at some of those locations are amazing
Yes, they loved watching plays---to be entertained. But, actors were seen as lowly. Playing a role and actually being the person is two different things. And they saw this. For instance, acting out a heroic battle scene in which an enemy soldier was dispatched, was seen to glorify that Roman soldier's actions. Nobody cared about the actor, they were a second thought. People cared about the person who actually committed the deed. It was only really about the first half of the 20th century when actors started to garner headlines and really rake in the money. By the 70s-80s, Hollywood actors in many ways carrying more weight and authority than congressmen and the president.
I know that athletes were revered in those days. The top olympians and chariot racers became wealthy and very popular. The best gladiators also were household names.
