quote o’ the day: fame

Elvis

“The most annoying, condescending thing that friends, fans, journalists, and people from my previous life would do,” he remembered, “is tap me on the shoulder and say, ‘Enjoy the ride.’ As if the five of us weren’t completely aware that fame can be a fleeting thing.

It was like, fuck you.

Enjoy the ride being an accountant.”

Ted Allen of Queer Eye for the Straight Guy via The Vulture
