Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
Yes there are hysterical actors/actresses, but so are there hysterical people in all walk of life!. In general, most of the actors and actresses I have worked with have been fairly level headed!. Some are seen as difficult because they are absolute perfectionists (which is ok by me if their performance is good), but a happy rehearsal room and performances happen because most are generous and don't take the limelight unless it is their turn!. The most famous people I have worked with have been the most lovely and professional people!. The odd hysterical one I think is this way because they don't have confidence in what they are doing and blame everyone/everything except themselves for them not fully understanding their role!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Most are pampered diva's!. You may be emotional which is fine, hopefully you are not a diva!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

its probably after they become famous and it goes to their heads!. having been on film sets I imagine most actors must require a lot of patience, theres so much waiting around!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I don't know if I'd say "hysterical", per se, but very dramatic in actions and overzealous!Www@QuestionHome@Com

actually they tend to become arrogant and start showing it too becoz of all the attention
secondly interference in personal life is too much from the media!.!.!.!.so they tend get pissed off easily!.!.!.!.but u dnt wry n try hard in watever you do!.!.!.!.if u hav a passion for acting!.!.!.!.go for it!.!.!.!.no small excuses like these should stop u from ur goal!.!.!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

i dunnnno!?Www@QuestionHome@Com

Actually, you may mean histrionic which means overly dramatic!. It is not true that actors in everyday life are overly emotional!. They are quite often just like everyone else!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

i think its true not all of them turn in to power hungry publicity seeking freaksWww@QuestionHome@Com

No, not exactly!.!.!.
I feel that most actors are more "emotional" than people, but not hysterical!.!.!. That's a bit stereotypical!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I have found that most of my actress friends are quite normal people; some are more energetic, some are quite shy!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

They seem quite normal!. If you ever see them coming from the stage door, they act quite regular!. But in the privacy of their own homes I'm not sure! Some of the buzz from being theatrical must still be there!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Actors generally are not 'very hysterical people' in real life!. A lot of them are very shy and retiring sort of people!. Not all of them seek the limelight all the time and some of them would rather shy away from it altogether!. What does happen though, is the fact that a well taught actor is encouraged to have his/her emotions at their fingertips, at the drop of a hat!. Many parts require a quick change of emotion from crying one minute to laughing the next, so it is very easy for them to express these emotions suddenly!.They are not all 'lov-vies'!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Er, no!. Have you heard of the terms "generalisation" and "stereotype"!? There are as many different types of personalities who act as there are who work at call centres or in pubs or as accountants or in any other job!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
