About this Quote

This quote by Lauren Ambrose speaks with the pressure that stars and starlets deal with in the show business. It resembles the pressure that lots of people feel in high school to harmonize the popular kids. In the entertainment industry, actors and starlets are expected to drive the right automobile, wear the right clothing, and say the ideal things in order to be accepted and successful. This pressure can be overwhelming and can result in feelings of insecurity and inadequacy. It is very important for stars and actresses to remember that they are unique and that their individual skills and characters are what make them effective. They should not feel the requirement to comply with the expectations of the market in order to be accepted.
