I have long suspected that the process of becoming famous can cause a lot of problems in itself. One theory holds that you become mentally stuck at the age when you first obtained it, Michael Jackson being one example.
Its a bit of a chicken and the egg question; do actors become insecure from the conditions in the industry, or are insecure people drawn to acting?
In regards to genius dysfunction, there may be an unconscious bias that you don't know as much about the lives of non-famous geniuses (as they're not famous), so they don't appear as flawed. Nikola Tesla was pretty spicy though, I believe.
