You lose privacy. Your history is combed and any indiscretions blown out of proportion.
It is very easy to lose touch with reality. Alot of famous people are molded into the people they are, or coerced into doing/saying things they may not completely agree with simply to further their name/fortune.

e.g. the rap movement and its insistence on rebelliousness.
