The road to greatness is a long path filled with struggle and time. Based on research by the best-selling author Malcom Gladwell inside his book Outliers popularized the idea of 10,000 hours of guided practice “the magic number of greatness”(Gladwell, 47). With enough practice he said anyone could achieve any work that of a professional. While some say the 10,000 hour rule is the key to success I believe that success is based on genetics, talent, and time period. It is whether one was born with the talent, achieved it later within life or was born during the wrong time period is what makes a master out of someone. Where the 10,000 hour rule is not a truth.

Bernie Mac’s second Def Comedy Jam special, “I Ain’t Scared of You Motherfuckers” is a comedic work that has always made me laugh uncontrollably. Even when I was too young to fully understand most of the jokes in that particular standup routine, his physical motions, use of curses and taboo sex phrases, as well as his urban Chicago colloquialisms were enough to have tears dripping from my eyes and a boisterous sound of laughter coming from my mouth, loud enough that it would cause my mother to come into my room and investigate what all the fuss was about. Despite the obvious comedic subject matter of works of comedy done by comedians such as Bernie Mac, there are numerous underlying reasons that attribute to the humor that is expressed through our laugher and enjoyment. Through his lively stage presences and sociological motifs, Bernie Mac was able to enlighten the world on the various cultural aspects of urban life by his use of social and psychological cues that capture our attention, giving us directions on how to react, providing us with an increased social awareness though satirical methods, and making light of taboo topics regarding the themes of sex and gender roles.

Kaufman was born in New York City on January 17, 1949, his parents where Stanley Kaufman and Janice Bernstein (Kaufaman). Kaufman was raised in the affluent suburb of Great Neck, Long Island, New York, Kaufman early on began practicing his unorthodox brand of comedy, staging a make-believe television show in his bedroom and performing at children's birthday parties from the age of 8 (Kaufaman). He was young kid when he started performing in front of his family and friends. Soon he was appearing on TV, including on show’s called “Saturday Night Live”, “Van Dyke and Company”, “The Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson”, “The Mike Douglas Show”, The Dating Game and the comedy show Fridays (Kaufaman).

All fame begins when you do something noticeable. For example, actors and actresses build upon their careers and reputations by achieving excellence in their personal goals, as well as perfecting their public performance.
Many people wish that they can be rich or famous; some of them wish they can be both. Being rich is not the same as being famous; they each have a different meaning in many aspects. The society refers to a person with money as a rich person, and to a person who is widely known as a famous person. Some people get confused between the two terms, because nowadays, most people get famous because they are rich, but that should not be the case.
When Brittany Murphy died, when Lindsay Lohan was jailed, when Britney Spears shaved off her hair, the question was asked – what have we done to these kids? We all love rags to riches stories, but it seems that the people are almost as fond of riches to rags – or let’s say, stardom to failure. What happens when a successful young performer becomes a has-been star? The high-profile troubles of celebs like Michael Jackson and Gary Coleman reinforces the truth that nearly every kid who has worked in the entertainment industry has struggled as an adult. Although some may argue that several child stars have gone on to have stable and successful careers as adults, our contention here is that a lot of celebrities who were exposed to the limelight at a young age become scarred for life by their early success and fame and tend to compensate for the childhood they were deprived of during their later years in life.
But sometimes it 's hard to tell. Others not so much. For example, many celebrities these days are getting caught in this rat race towards fame and success. One of the most memorable being Lance Armstrong, once a great role model for young people and a mediocre cyclist who ran a live strong campaign for Nike after defeating testicular cancer. A brave and insightful man who had been through so much, looked upon by so many people and fans. All ruined due to his undoubtedly idiotic addiction to lying. After years of lying and cheating Armstrong was completely comfortable with this habit which eventually took over his life and career by controlling him. Once he was in that deep hole of lying he was stuck there for good and had no motivation to ever get out as he never fully came clean about the events and doping he did. Now, all he 's known or even remembered for is lying and cheating for his whole career. When the cameras and stories finally settled after doping for many years, Armstrong 's reputation was tarnished forever and unquestionably never making a come back after this legendary status made such a move and lied so harshly about it. However Armstrong will still undoubtedly be the most famous cyclist in the world for winning several Tour de France titles, and all for what? Lying and cheating. While Armstrong likely spends his days soaking in dollars and spending
Growing up I knew I would be a rock star. I would have a beautiful powerful voice. I would be like the great singers. Now that I know how much work goes into being a great singer I don’t think I could be a rock star. Two singers who inspired me to be a singer are Beyoncé and Demi Lovato. One of the reasons I love these singers is because of how powerful their voices are. Although they are not always perfect I wish I could sing like them one day.
Firstly, I think that entertainers’ athletes are paid so much because they deserve it. An actor isn’t going just wake up one day and say, “I think I’m going to be an A-list act...
