Or them. Nothing to do with what I do or what they do. It’s a different thing. So I have never thought of stardom as important. Yes, I respect it a lot. It has given me a lot of recognition, respect, love, money, my family is happy for it. But beyond that, stardom is not what I carry as the first thing when I walk into a room. I have always said I wear stardom like a T-shirt, not a tuxedo. I’m careless about it. But if it’s not there, will this love go? I don’t think so.”
