"Una celebridad es alguien que es conocido por muchas personas que se alegra de no conocer."
— H. L. Mencken

Simplified Meaning:
Famous people often have lots of fans and admirers. Many people know them, but these celebrities don't know most of their fans personally. Imagine being a popular singer; thousands of fans might follow you, but you can't know each of them like friends. Think about a real-life situation: you might have seen movie stars who have tons of followers on social media, commenting and liking their posts. The movie star appreciates the support but doesn't interact with every single follower. This idea can help you understand that fame brings attention from many strangers, and celebrities might feel comfortable not knowing everyone who recognizes them. If you become famous, remember it's okay not to be friends with everyone who follows your career.
