3 Lessons From The Alter Egos of 3 Famous Artists.
What do Sasha Fierce, Ziggy Stardust & Roman Zolanski all have in common?
I’ve always been fascinated by how artists are able to perform with such vigour and explosive power on stage.
Like where do they get all that energy from? It’s god damn exhausting just looking at them.
After some observation, I guess one of the reasons is that most of these high-performing artists have someone to help them with it…
Their Alter Egos.
Ok I know this sounds like some juju theory but hear me out. What I’m trying to say is that, in a way, they’ve never really just been a solo act. They’ve always been (subconsciously or consciously) featuring their Alter Egos on stage to perform alongside with them.
And it’s magical to watch.
