This quote nearly speaks for itself:
“The fact you can’t walk down the street to get a cup of coffee without 10 cameras in your face is hard. It really is a very invasive industry and the line between your work and play is so blurred if not nonexistent, that it’s tough. It makes it hard to live, and I’m not sitting there going, ‘oh woe is me, my life is terrible’ but people get this idea in their head that what we do isn’t hard and it is. It’s work and do I want to get up every morning and go to set? No, there are some days I’m like, I don’t want to go to work today, but I love what I do.”
What is with Miss “It’s Not Easy Being Beautiful And Special And Talented” lately? Newsflash: You work in the most overpaid industry in the world. Your job is to pretend to be a superhero and get paid millions of dollars for a couple of months of work per year. There is a solution for this. It’s called “community theater.”
P.S. Not pole dancing with Paris Hilton would be a good start to attracting less attention.
P.P.S. You can also fix your paparazzi problem now.

REALLY? It’s “hard” to play dressup for an obscenely inflated salary? It’s “hard” to run around pretending to have problems, when your biggest one really is that you’re in love with yourself, but you just can’t commit? SERIOUSLY? Are you fargin’ kidding me?!? Look, Acting-is-hard Barbie: Thank your stage mommy or whomever it was who groomed and Jon-Beneted you into that ridiculous form of lucrative prostitution, because you COULD be out in the real world, doing some actual #@#$%@% WORK. For a lot less MONEY.
And when you’re done thanking her, drop dead. Again. Some more.
Oh–and you might have to help Mumsy up off the floor, if Daddums has been at it again. She’d probably really appreciate it.
When you make enough money to retire at age 19, you don’t get to play the “I go to work and work really hard, even when I don’t feel like it” card. You want hard and intrusive? Try working in a Third World country as a manual laborer in unsafe conditions for a mere pittance, that goes right back to your “employer” who holds a debt over your head that you can never pay back in your lifetime. Actually, there are no cameras there! She’ll love it! Of course, there’s also no coffee breaks. Or makeup, or clean water.
I understand that everyone has problems, and I wouldn’t particularly like having cameras shoved in my face all the time, but if it meant I didn’t have to worry about paying my bills, keeping a roof over my head, or being able to pay for food, I’d face the paparazzi head on.
A little more gratitude, then shut your mouth and smile.
LOL, Beige. You’re just so cruel
While I do believe some actors film very strenuous movies (namely the ones who do their stunts), when you couple it with the paycheck, nope, not at all. Bring on the few months of sore muscles and the scars, I’m ready. Plus, amazingly enough the celebrities who don’t insert themselves into the public eye don’t get followed.
Is anyone else becoming increasingly irritated with her over-the-shoulder great big huge “aren’t I ever so cuuuute” faux grins that every single picture of her seems to be. Seriously, until about one week ago the only thing I’d ever even heard of her for was frizzy-hair girl on a few episodes of Malcolm in the Middle. Oh, and that movie with Kate Hudson that was pretty lame.
Okay, as an actress, people like Jessica Biel and Hayden Pant-whatever need to suck the French up. I work in the community theatre and many theatres in the little city of Knoxville, which is not known for its theatre and it very, very competitive. Also, I’m in school doing crazy homework and doing required work for my school theatre which requires little to no pay and long ass hours. When I do get a paycheck for theatre work, whether it’s $25 or $400, I feel honored to do my part because it’s what I love doing.
If I got the opportunity to do a hit TV series or a multi-million dollar picture, it would more or less humble me to get a chance to show my talent. It just sickens me when these people don’t count their damn blessings and just bitch and moan about how hard their million dollar, public recognition lives are. I wish they would just realize that there are millions of young AND old actors and actresses (me including) who would gladly stop their bitching and take the roles without complaint.
I’m just saying, if you hate your job and the troubles it brings, do us a favor: shut up and/or quit. Because there are crazy talented people waiting for that chance on the bench.
::steps off soap box::
Moving to Montana is always an option.
Community theater is a good solution. It’s a lot of fun.
Friends, I would like to bring to your attention a quote by Sir Peter O’Toole, actor extraordinaire: “We live public lives. If you want to guard your privacy, stop it.”
It may be surreal sometimes, but it’s the way it is. Now, more than ever, people who want to be famous know what sort of attention they’re in for. But for those who don’t know any better, may I suggest the 3-Step Program for Famous People Who Bitch About Fame?
1. Quit your whining.
2. Quit your crying.
3. Suck it up.
She should thank her lucky stars (or whatever anthropomorphic dolphin god she worships)that she still has a job in these hard economic times (and that none of the executive producers of Heroes have realized yet that her character has been absolutely worthless since halfway through the first freaking season)
this girl is going to turn into another pain in the ass joke like half of hollywood already is. yawn.
All this before she is 20? How much longer do we have to deal with this crap? Why not either suck it up or quit and go get an education at a college.
And I really liked her in “Remember the Titans”. Damn shame she turned into this
She should come work the split shift I just did and I’ll do her job. She’ll quit whining real quick.
Grammar-Nazi Alert—–
I’m only half-serious with this, but it does occur to me that the correct phrase would be “Woe is I”.
Ahem. That is all.
In other news, Hayden seriously needs to find out how the real world works. Because griping that being an actress–excuse me, make that “actress”–means having cameras in your face, is like going all the way through med school and then bitching that you’re always having to deal with sick people. Welcome to Obviousville. Population: You.
LOL everyone and Irish! X-D
Hayden Planetarium has been in the business since she was a little girl, she’s had plenty of time to get out if she didn’t like it so much, especially now that she’s of the age to make her own decisions. :-p
Paps in your face? Wow, tell that to a family who has to live out of their car because your president is killing this country. Just shut up, you little twit.
HEY, now. We don’t have any more homeless people. That only happens when a Republican is in the Oval Office. Those people magically disappear when a Democrat is inaugurated.
Ya’ll stop it!!! My sides are KILLING me!!!
Let’s hope there’s no dead animals in that fake ponytail of hers.

EWWWW. People have the right to smoke if they want to–except in California, IIRC–but Grow-Up Skipper needs to remember that she won’t look that cutesy for long if she keeps at it. At least she’s hanging out with someone who’ll get her on the path to clean living and healthy thoughts in no time. I mean, it worked for Britney.
The whambulance? Does she have Whine Flu?
