But, when you try to pull a girl, who is also famous too, it feels just like when you wasn't famous.

Shouldnt it be, "it feels just like when you were not famous"?I need a foot massage -
Yes, or the contraction, weren't.Life is not measured by the number of breaths you take, but by the moments that take your breath away.

Additionally, "also famous too" is redundant.Life is not measured by the number of breaths you take, but by the moments that take your breath away.

"Wasn't" is two syllables, "weren't" is one for most English speakers
So "were not famous" would fit better.
It's still very awkward though, I think
"It feels just like before you were famous"
makes much more sense, although it might not fit the poetic metre as well.
