Celebrities Who Are Totally Different Off-Screen

Neil deGrasse Tyson

Neil deGrasse Tyson is an unusual type of celebrity. He got his claim to fame by sharing some wild facts about the world we live on. He built up a dedicated fanbase across the globe and managed to get kids interested in science and space! Although Tyson is grateful for his fans, his fame comes at a costly price...

Pay the Piper

Apparently, a club appearance for Tyson costs upwards of $85,000 for a few hours. Many of the venues have agreed to pay his fee so he can talk about time and space for a little while, but a lot of fans see that as selling out. Sorry Tyson, but people hate that...
