Celebrity was a long time in coming; it will go away. Everything goes away.
Sometimes I'll have a brief window of mini-fame thanks to 'Access Hollywood.' But it only lasts a couple of days, and then no one recognizes me anymore.
I mean, everybody's star fades in every business; that's just a natural part of life.
TV is a fickle business. I'm only good for the length of my contract.
I never wanted to be one of those 'Where are they now?' kids.
Your celebrity capital rises and falls in any given year. And when you have some - temporarily, usually - you try to use it for some good.
People are famous for being famous and for nothing else. And good luck to them, because it lasts about a year and then they're nothing again.
A film writer is very much like a party girl. While you're good-looking and still unlined, the possibilities seem endless. But your appeal doesn't last long and you're quickly discarded.
I know how limited and how fleeting fame is, so I just try not to get excited about it, honestly.
I'm a flash in the pan: a novelty.
I completely understand how temporary fame is, and I keep my sanity at all times.
I'm the flavor of the month.
Popularity - a piece of faded tinsel, that is out of date.
Even if you're doing a film, you're in the news while the shooting is on and during promotions. But once it's over, the limelight fades away, and you wait for something better to come your way.
When a hit's a hit, you can't hold it down.
I find I like the spotlight for a very brief period of time... and I sort of need it. But then, the minute that it's done, I have to sort of go hide. So I was never really meant, I think, to be a performer for a living.
I never wanted to be flavour of the month.
He was, albeit only briefly, the hero of the world's hopes.
You can't plan success with a creative field. So I enjoy it while it's here, and I know it won't be forever. Maybe one day I'll have to go back to flipping burgers, but for now I'm going to enjoy the cool things.
Look, the fame rocket is only on the upward trajectory for a limited time.
I'm really thankful for the popularity of 'Strong Woman Do Bong Soon,' but I know it's only temporary.
There is no everlasting power in the music of today. Everyone is running after record sales.
Somebody actually tattooed my face on his arm. In a couple years, that will be the equivalent of having a Screech tattoo.
Everybody likes the new guy. Being the new guy is cool. But then when you're there for a couple months, you're just the cool guy. I think I'm just the cool guy.
Things that are like overnight success things don't last long, and that's not something I wanted.
