It's literally talked about all the time.
It's a soul crushing business with extremely long working hours, insane expectations, tight deadlines, etc. Not to mention having every aspect of your professional and personal constantly scrutinized by fans and the media.
So it's not hard to understand. To say that, I don't feel bad for anyone who pursues that in the modern age because they know what they are signing up for.
