That aura, all people feeling their presence, that was energy, that was stardom. That was glory. Today, all people is way simpler, extra informal, extra accessible, extra out there. I do know which fitness center you go to, which Pilates class you go to, I do know what you eat, I do know who you meet, I do know all the things about you, how can there be any thriller about you?
