The discussion echoed the struggles faced by iconic figures like Marilyn Monroe, who grappled with her own dual identity as a beloved celebrity and an ordinary person. This dichotomy can lead to exploitation, as the pressure on actors to maintain fabricated personas can blur the lines between self-exploitation and victimization.
