Five Ways To Achieve Fame

These days, you can become a "celebrity" for doing just about anything. If you are someone that does not excel in any particular area but still desires stardom, here are some ideas on how you can achieve fame and fortune.


1. Have 15+ kids.

Here's an interesting one. Apparently, you can become rich and famous just for popping out a ton of kids! Clearly, we do not have near enough reality television shows about large families and could use a lot more. (Disclaimer: if this path to fame does not work out, you will still have to provide for your growing collection of children.)

2. Make vines.

There are many different ways you can become Vine famous. You could get lucky and catch something absolutely hilarious on camera, you could gain (negative) attention by posting uncomfortable videos of you lip-syncing, or you could attempt to make relatable posts about things people find funny. Honestly, as long as you have a decent sense of humor and know how to whip, you've got a pretty good shot at this one.

3. Say something dumb on television.

If you don't mind the entire world thinking you are an idiot, this method of reaching fame is perfect for you. We have all seen Youtube video after Youtube video of people embarrassing themselves on the news or national television. Whether you want to warn the public to "hide their kids, hide their wife," or ramble on about people of the world not owning maps, this could really work out for you. You could possibly even turn things around and redeem yourself after achieving fame this way. If not, I am pretty sure there is a support group for these frequently mocked people.

4. Marry someone rich.

This one might be difficult as you first have to find someone with a lot of money that thinks you are worth putting up with. Once you have completed this first step, though, it's simple. Become friends with other wealthy housewives, act completely stuck-up, and spend all of your husband's money. You will have your own reality television show in no time.

5. Weigh 600+ pounds.

This is debatably the most dangerous option on the list because weighing anywhere close to 600 pounds clearly comes with a lot of health risks. However, if you love stuffing your face with food and laying around on the couch all day, this could truly be the way to go. Just make sure you are ready to commit to this option because if you decide it is not for you, it will be a long way back to where you began.


While these ways of becoming famous might not help you get the kind of attention and recognition you want, there is no denying that they have worked for countless other people. Because if we have learned anything at all from the Kardashians, it is that you can become one of the richest and most famous people in the world while possessing absolutely no talent.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
