In a candid interview with Vanity Fair, Bacon recounted his experience, revealing his motivations and the surprising outcomes. Despite successfully concealing his identity with the help of a skilled makeup artist—complete with fake teeth, a new nose, and glasses—Bacon found himself in a world that felt strangely unfamiliar.

“People were pushing past me and not being nice,” he recalled. Accustomed to the adoration of fans and the perks that come with fame, Bacon was taken aback by the cold reality of anonymity. “I had to wait in line to, I don’t know, buy a coffee or whatever. I was like, This sucks. I want to go back to being famous,” he admitted with a wry smile.
This revelation came after Bacon’s initial excitement at successfully evading recognition wore off, highlighting the stark contrast between the worlds of celebrity and everyday life. Despite the inconveniences of fame, such as constant attention and lack of privacy, Bacon expressed a genuine appreciation for his career and the opportunities it has brought him.
