Los Angeles, April 28 (TIWN) Actor Anthony Hopkins said being a part of showbiz is like having a paid hobby.

He added that he has always tried to tell young actors about how distorted fame and stardom are.   "You know, I meet young people, and they want to act and they want to be famous, and I tell them, when you get to the top of the tree, there's nothing up there. Most of this is nonsense, most of this is a lie. Accept life as it is. Just be grateful to be alive," he said earlier.
