Lewis Hamilton talks about fame and being a celebrity
Lewis Hamilton said he was aware that the celebrity lifestyle and fame weren't 'real' and he still does the same thing as he used to do.
Speaking at the pre-race press conference ahead of the 2021 Abu Dhabi GP, the 39-year-old said:
“The thing is at the end of the day, it is not really real. Obviously, you are perceived as being someone they call a celebrity but just cause we are on TV a little bit. It's definitely surreal when people recognize you at a restaurant or walking down a street. But at the end of the day, you're still the same person, we are still human beings, still do the same thing.
“Still get to go home to nearby where I grew up. The family does the same thing. My parents still watch Carnation Street and Eastenders, I don’t know if Eastenders is still going. Do I get free ice cream? There is one place at home where they do ice cream. But no they don’t give us free ice cream. I need to take that up a bit.”
Despite his superstar status, Lewis Hamilton has remained one of the most humble drivers on the F1 grid and has often reflected on his tough upbringing and the teachings his father gave him when he was young.
