"Today everyone is a star - they're all billed as 'starring' or 'also starring'. In my day, we earned that recognition"
- Bette Davis
About this Quote
This quote by Bette Davis talks to the changing nature of popularity and acknowledgment in the entertainment industry. In her day, actors had to work hard to earn the title of "star" and the acknowledgment that featured it. Today, however, it appears that anyone can be a "star" or "likewise starring" without needing to put in the exact same quantity of effort. This shift in the industry has actually been caused by the rise of social networks and the ability to become an overnight sensation. Davis is most likely expressing her disappointment in the lack of recognition for those who have striven to end up being stars in the standard sense. She is also most likely regreting the truth that the title of "star" has actually become devalued due to its overuse.
