^ I can see what you're saying, and obviously you're entitled to your own opinion on it. But I think one way that you could choose to look at it is - she wanted to perform, and loved to perform. She also wanted to be famous for performing and have that lead to success. What she didn't want, and what made her unhappy, was all of the expectation around what that fame and success encompasses.
Whereas most stars are personalities, I don't think she ever wanted that. She didn't want to be judged for who she was or how she acted, she just wanted to be judged for her performance alone and to keep the rest to herself.
It's definitely a very abnormal approach, but I don't think it was disingenuous either.
