The funny thing about this secret is that I was instantly reminded of something Guillermo del Toro said recently during press tour for Frankenstein. Something along the lines of you will know more about what del Toro is like and what his innermost thoughts and feelings are through his films than you would by talking to him IRL.

Like, yes, Secret OP. I don't think there is anything wrong with how you choose to consume the media you enjoy. There is no reason to have any interest in the creators TBH, like...not really.
But in this unpersonalized approach you probably have a clearer sense of the creator's true intent/passions than what many hardcore fans of the figure do.

I personally enjoy learning about creators of things I really enjoy. I think it came from really enjoying English class, and finding Shakespeare to be just as interesting as the plays he'd written. I can enjoy a piece of media as it is, but if I really like it or didn't like it, it can also be fun to look up the creators of the projects to see what inspired them to create what they did.

TL; DR - idolizing people who work in creative industries is a form of entertainment media of its own; enjoying media made by creatives with no interest in the creators may be a better way in actually enjoying said media; I like humans and I think humans are interesting, please don't interpret that as me idolizing creatives/being into pop culture worship (PS. creativity and humans' relationship to it is interesting too)
