Genius=ego

[Blue Mist]

What about the 'genius' bit, BM? Personally, I think I have always carried my genius in the most unassuming way!

Ah good point. I therefore wish to amend my post, my ego is equal to my genius. Its down there somewhere just too hard to find.

Very good point. Sometimes the ones that shout loudest aren't always the ones you want to hear.

I don't think any player we have has an ego, they wouldn't fit in if they did.
Perhaps a star is media made more than anything else.

Ego = sense of self. It is usually used as a derogatory term but that is a mistake as there are positive and negative aspects of ego. Kevin has a very strong sense of self, is comfortable and confident in his own skin. nobody Would call him egotistical because his ego is very strong but well balanced.
Yaya on the other hand allowed the negative aspects of his ego to dominate at times which made him seem precious and self centred. I’m not sure there is any correlation between genius and ego, we all display both negative and positive aspects.

Thread should be titled 'Ego=C*nt'.

People of exceptional ability in any field often have 'issues'. These are not necessarily all the same, but almost by definition, if you are special, you are not 'normal'.

It's the same with the music industry. Once an artist reaches mega stardom the egos come out.
Morrissey being the odd exception from being a twat.....

He's a proper **** instead...

Being Ginger he had to work hard to find a talent that hides it.
