There is this power that comes with being famous.

Stewart’s remark points to fame as a form of social capital: once a person is widely recognized, ordinary interactions can tilt in their favor. “Power” here can mean access (to people, places, opportunities), influence (being listened to, shaping taste or opinion), and insulation (rules bending, criticism softened). The line also carries an implied ambivalence: the power is not necessarily earned by virtue, but conferred by public attention, which can distort relationships and decision-making. Read this way, the quote is less a boast than a candid observation about how celebrity changes the terms on which the world responds to you.
