Summary

This quote suggests that as a celebrity, one enjoys the advantage of being able to attribute any disinterest or lack of engagement from others to their own shortcomings, rather than placing the blame on the celebrity themselves. It implies that celebrities are seen as inherently fascinating and anything contrary to that perception is attributed to the audience's own inadequacies rather than questioning the celebrity's appeal. This quote highlights the somewhat irrational way in which society idolizes celebrities, often overlooking any flaws or shortcomings.
