Tyler Hoechlin Quotes

Being a movie star, and this applies to all of them, means being looked at from every possible direction. You are never left at peace, you're just fair game.

When you get to a certain level of recognizability, celebrity, you can't go out of the house without someone going, "Can I just have one photo?" I don't mind, by the way, if anyone wants one we can take some photos. But sometimes you just wanna stay in the house or in the hotel room with the shades closed.

I don't like being a celebrity.

But I just wonder what it would be like to be able to go places without people recognizing me.

I don't wanna hear nobody complain that they're getting paid all this money and people won't leave them alone. It's part of it.

Celebrity damages private life.

People are always asking me for pictures, signing autographs, everywhere I go. Before, it used to irritate me, but I've learned to handle the situation. I cannot run away unless I lock myself in my room and never go out.

Before, it had been fame, and then super-fame came. And then it became super-super-fame. One loses one's personal life, really; you're recognized everywhere. But I embraced that.

Attention from the photographers is part of my life and I think the best thing is to learn to deal with it.

I never enjoyed being famous.

The fame thing is interesting because I never wanted to be famous, and I never dreamt I would be famous....You know I didn't think they'd rake through my bins, I didn't expect to be photographed on the beach through long lens. I never dreamt it would impact my daughter's life negatively, which at times it has. It would be churlish to say there's nothing good about being famous; to have a total stranger walk up to you as you're walking around Safeways, and say a number of nice things that they might say about your work.

Fame gives you everything you never wanted.

Fame invades your private life. It takes away from the time that you spend with friends, and the time that you can work. It tends to isolate you from the real world.

All my first dates are interrupted by my fame because every picture taken is a fan that you can gain.

I'm famous, so I can't, like, really walk around in malls and stuff like that. I don't really have as much privacy.

There are a lot of perks that come with fame and with every positive there's a negative and then it all kind of balances out. The travelling is great. You get to see so many different places but there's a downside; having everything splattered across every media resource that exists, being chased by photographers and have them sit at the end of your driveway every day. But it all kind of balances.

Invisibility is the only thing that fame cost me. I used to be able to go places and blend in. Anonymity is something you lose on this side of things.

I don't know how people do it these days - paparazzi and that kind of thing. That's something I can't even imagine.

I feel for anybody who has that level of celebrity where you can't lead a normal life.

When you're in a position to be paparazzi-ed just walking down the street, you'd look a little daft if you were smiling all the time.

It's harder to live the way I live. There are certain places I like to shop and eat where I simply don't go. The paparazzi follow you.

Celebrity's a pain in the backside - you're always on display.

There are a lot of good things about being famous but there are a few not so good things too.

The paparazzi stuff is a little weird. I used to leave the house in my pajamas. I can't do that anymore, but I'm not complaining!

I do live a weirdly divided life, because I'm not a Hollywood superstar, I don't live on Malibu Beach, I don't do massive 'OK!' spreads, I don't go to premieres and parties that much.
