Id just like to know if you know of anyone, who had the opportunity to become huge (one hit wonder pop stars maybe?) and chose to lead a normal life out of the limelight? No real reason, just curious!
No because true fame is a by-product of what the person is doing. Most real famous people did not set out to become famous, they merely enjoyed and were good at what they did and fame followed. In general, people do not give up what they love doing. People like Jordan and Cheryl Cole sought fame without much talent. You may laugh, but Bruce Forsythe is famous because he is talented. He wouldn't have been in showbiz for over 60 years if he didn't have talent.
