In a recent interview, basketball megastar LeBron James says that sometimes fame isn't all that it's cracked up to be.

Speaking with the New York Times, the Lakers star says that some days, he wishes he could do "normal things" like "go to Target sometimes and walk into Starbucks and have my name on the cup just like regular people."


James told Tania Ganguli what he wishes he could do if it weren't for his fame, "I wish I could just walk outside.  I wish I could just, like, walk into a movie theater and sit down and go to the concession stand and get popcorn.

"I wish I could just go to an amusement park just like regular people. I wish I could go to Target sometimes and walk into Starbucks and have my name on the cup just like regular people."

James made sure to add, "I'm not sitting here complaining about it, of course not. But it can be challenging at times."
