    Default how nice it is to be famous

    I especially like:

    Every time you accede to a star's demands, you need to take money from somewhere else. One action star, for example, requires a basketball court wherever he's shooting, even if it means spending $35,000 to build one. Such extravagance, says one production executive, inevitably comes out of someone else's paycheck: ''People who work below the line get squeezed: the director of photography, the editor.''

    Ultimately, of course, anything that drives up the cost of any entertainment product eventually trickles down to the audience. ''The consumer ends up paying for it,'' one studio chief says flatly. If the 5 percent estimate is roughly accurate across the entertainment industry, when you fork over $10 for a movie ticket or $18 for a CD, bear in mind that anywhere from 50 cents to a dollar of your hard-earned cash may be going to pay for a star's dog to fly first-class. Fido thanks you.
