You are unreasonably idealizing them. I've been friends with a few of them, even a big name, and overall it's a pretty terrible experience. They have too many people in their dms to genuinely care about any of them. You will be treated as an orbiter even if you make it clear that you don't want anything more than a platonic friendship.
You haven't missed out on anything. Only unbalanced relationships where you give 10 and receive 1 all the time.
