Is it possible for me to be a famous actress and flight attendant?

Im interested in acting but i know that it may not be as realistic as being a flight attendant but its my dream. But i dont like the consequences of being an actress because you're constantly being watched by the public so thats why i love the idea of being a flight attendant. #student #actress #college #business

Thank you comment icon Hey Kadi D, You can be an actress and a flight attendant. I know it sounds hard but you can do it. I am also stuck between two careers like yourself. I'm not sure whether to do one or both, but I am going for both of them. I have no money saved and I am unemployed, but I am hopeful for my dreams and yours too. Just don't give up and keep hustling.

Michelle’s Answer

Hello, Kadi D. What wonderful career interests you have !

Actually, it seems as though you already have wonderful insight on this subject. It is always possible to be an actress, but fame comes unexpectedly, it's not planned for. Being a flight attendant is a good alternative if that is what you are also interested in.


It is always possible that, if you love acting, that you can take an acting class and/or audition for local community theatre productions. Acting in a production requires an extreme amount of time with commitments all through the rehearsal process and performance schedule. That can take you away from your studies in college. Many people do acting as a hobby and feel fulfilled on that level.


It wouldn't be advisable or even possible to plan to do both acting and flight attendant at the same time. Your availability for either would not make it possible. The extreme demands of both jobs would not make it possible. If you would be one of the few who would become famous, you'd be sacrificing a lot of privacy and you already know that is not for you. But you have a long life ahead of you and sometimes it's just good to take things a step at a time , focus on one thing at a time.


Best wishes to you in your future .

Zonda’s Answer

Hi Kadi,

I agree with Michelle, both of your choices are very demanding and may require you to give up a lot of your time and privacy. Show business can be fickle and hard to acquire success. There is a lot of competition. Pursuing a career as a flight attendant can afford you a stable income and the opportunity to travel to all sorts of wonderful places. Maybe start off seeking a feasible career and ease into the world of acting in community theatres where you can foster that love on a smaller scale. You never know if that will lead to something bigger and fantastic.

What I know is, nothing is impossible. It will ultimately depend on the effort you put into both (how much of yourself you are willing to give to each, and which situation makes you the happiest). Take a board and weigh the pros and cons of each. Outline the amount of time and energy both will require. Think of immediate and long term gratifications. Use these thoughts to help you understand how to define your decisions. You may see that one can be a hobby and one the fulfilling career you deserve.

Best of luck on whichever road you choose!!

Zonda recommends the following next steps:

A career in acting can be challenging and very competitive. Think about that as you make a decision.
Flight attendants have demanding schedules. Your time may be too constrictive for acting projects.
Write out the pros and cons of each choice to define time restrictions and privacy issues.
Be realistic. You need income, so decide how you can endeavor in your interests, but maintain reasonable stability.
