Stevie desperately WANTED stardom from the beginning, and this colored (consciously and subconsciously) all the decisions she's made in her life. "I wanna be a star, I don't wanna be a cleaning lady". Did she want success so much because her grandfather did and didn't get it?? Maybe. Was she driven to succeed by her highly successful workaholic father?? Maybe. Her childhood moving around so much and having to fit in with new groups of people all the time gave her a need to be liked, and simultaneously a tendency to get bored with stability. So much of this aligned for her to be successful. But you don't just "get" famous... you WORK at it, and it was her life's mission.
