Becoming a Media Whore in Five Easy Steps

February 16th, 2009 Posted in Funny Pictures, Pop Culture, Social Misfits Email This Post Print This Post

Over the site’s existence, Extremely Funny has poked fun at its share of celebrities (and pseudo-celebrities). We have also seen a growing trend with some individuals becoming famous with very little talent, yet able to exploit the media to garner more attention.  Like these famous individuals, would you like to become a “media whore”, as well?

Just follow these five easy steps:

1. Attach yourself to a famous or rich family

If your family isn’t already stinking rich (like the Hiltons) or you don’t have a famous sibling (like Lindsay Lohan), don’t fret.  You can still try to marry someone famous (like K-Fed did) or have your mother marry a famous athlete (like the Kardashians).  Being around famous people is a good starting point.

2.  Leak a Sex Tape

You don’t have to sleep with a rock star or someone else famous (although it helps).  You don’t even need to have sex.  If you are worried about performance anxiety, find a suitable lookalike, and leak their image to the press.

In fact, with very little effort you may be able to enlist a porn lookalike to play the role.

3. Its About What Your Not Wearing

On the red carpet, the celebrities are always asked about the designer clothes they are wearing.   THIS DOESN”T MATTER. What does?  That you appear to have forgotten to wear a bra and/or panties.  A see-through top on the red carpet will guarantee you some extra publicity.

Not invited? Make sure to “accidentally” flash your cooch to the paparazzi as you exit your car at the awards after party.

4.  Drink. Get Clean. Repeat.

If you aren’t snorting drugs or boozing it, people won’t remember who you are.  Go on a bender, get arrested, go to rehab and do it again. If you can no longer stomach the drugs and alcohol, find another addiction.  Sexaholics. and chronic gamblers can get attention too.

5. Sellout To TV Execs

So you got drunk/stoned/arrested/laid.  Now what?  Find the closest TV exec and tell him what you’ve done.  While a prime time network show may not be the result, you may find yourself in front of a camera 24/7 for one of the many cable channels scrambling for the “next big thing”.

Conclusion:

So who cares if you can’t sing or act.

Get drunk, get laid, get help, get paid.

Did you feel like a step was missing?  Do you have what it takes to be a media whore?  Who would you consider the queen or king of media whores?  Leave a comment.
