¿Cómo se siente ser famoso? --- How does it feel to be famous?

¿Cómo se siente tener hambre? --- How does it feel to be hungry?

For those examples in particular, I would say:

¿Qué se siente ser famoso?

¿Qué se siente tener hambre?

¿Cómo se siente...? is used more commonly when referring to an object:

¿Cómo se siente el zapato? ¿te queda bien? How does the shoe feel like? Does it fit you?

or when referring to someone else health:

¿Cómo se siente el paciente hoy? How is the patient today?
