Possible Meanings:
There are not too many people in the world who don’t secretly (or not so secretly) desire their 15 minutes of fame. The amount of importance we place on celebrity status is extraordinary. Just because someone can remember lines in front of a camera, belt out a tune in time or expertly handle a ball, they are automatically desirable. Who is the celebrity in your dream, and what does he or she represent to you, ie. physical prowess, mental skill or sexuality? Is this what you want more of in your life? Do you desire to be like the celebrity in your dream? Do you believe that you have an equal amount of talent, but are yet to be discovered (or have not yet been discovered)? Do you turn to jelly when you meet the celebrity in your dream? Are you completely dwarfed by the experience, nervous and tongue-tied? Does this indicate a missed opportunity, ie. you could have achieved something important, but you went wobbly at the knees? What is the celebrity’s image and how do you feel about it? Without the image is the celebrity just an every day Joe, all talk and hype and no substance? Or does the celebrity walk their talk? Do you feel you do, too? Is the celebrity a one-hit-wonder, a flash-in-the-pan, or someone talented whose popularity has lasted over the years? Do you see yourself as highly talented or a spin-doctor? Do you feel included or excluded by the celebrity in your dream? Do they make you feel as though you belong and are welcome, or do they treat you like a gatecrasher? Are you intimate with the celebrity in your dream, or is it a business relationship? This may indicate what you believe your celebrity status will bring to you. Perhaps it is true that we all get our 15 minutes of fame: some of us in the waking world, others in the dream world!
