And the flip side of that is that you get hundreds of strangers singing your name and cheering you when you do a good job, as opposed to one boss saying 'nice work son'. That's the nature of the job, being in the entertainment industry in the public eye in front of an audience. You don't get to dictate what kind of response you think you're entitled to, that's up to the paying customer, like it or lump it. Comedians get booed off stage, bands that suck at festivals get bottled off. If he's actually receiving genuine threats against his family, then he can pass those on to the relevant people to deal with it.
