The spotlight

Stardom is great

But authenticity is greater still. 

Before you come in public eye

Learn to draw your lines

To protect your privacy.

Understand that you will be 

Put through baseless speculations 

And that's okay

What's important is doing what you believe in

To the best of your ability. 

Know how to stay grounded and real

Despite the clutter and the noise

Despite the glitz and the temptation 

Don't give into ostentation. 

Keep your head

Firmly rooted on your shoulders. 

No matter what they say or do. 

Because once the spotlight falls on you

You are left with no choice but to face it.
