Deadmau5 wrote candidly about why he tattooed the word 'fail' on his wrist on his personal site 'the blog of Fail' last week and revealed that he's more than a little uncomfortable with his new David Guetta/Tiesto style superstar DJ status. "You know that feeling you get when people are watching you? Yeah . . . well what if the feeling was justified, and you have nearly 1,000,000 followers on Facebook alone," he asked in a fascinating missive on the pressures of fame. "It's scary as fuck," he continued, "the scary part isn't the attention you're getting, the scariest part is the instilled fear of failure that I've had my whole life. And when you can't live up to someone's expectations, that classifies as a fail."
