How Reality Goes

Image change is often risky, as celebrities will never be assured that they will get a positive response from fans and endorsements. Such risk is often outweighed if the change is for the better, such as for health and for a good cause. In the case of Changed Person (CP), his transformation was met with encouragement from the public and his endorsements.

Things sounded positive, but the change also meant facing reality, that is, CP has not had as much work as several years ago. Thus, finances are dipping and lifestyle changes had to be done. Of course, transformation does not come cheap, as maintaining an image requires much expense. CP is a proud person and made sure that no borrowing would transpire. It would be more difficult if CP would be the subject of gossip concerning money problems.

Thus, CP strategized his image by pricing himself a bit too high. For instance, when invitations to do magazine covers came, CP placed a tag price on his appearances. Usually, gracing the cover of a magazine is a privilege, as the featured celebrity gets extra mileage, and therefore, no money is paid. In CP’s case, he agreed on the concept but mentioned he had conditions. The producers agreed and they were caught with the unexpected. CP said that he would continue the project if he gets paid. Then, he quoted a high price, considering that most printed publications are shutting down and going online. As the cover issue was nearing its deadline, the producers negotiated and they met half-way.

Karma can have quick revenge. When CP was expecting to be part of a high profile and lucrative project, he prepared much for the day. He persevered to meet the standards of the project, which he had received initial compensation. When the final lineup came out, he was excluded. The reason was the same. He had priced himself quite high that he was dropped and the younger and more attractive male celebrities were chosen.  

With no work in sight in the local scene and with a new image that is envied by many, CP had to make do with the situation. Allegedly, CP has made himself available for various services. Such activities are done and booked discretely, of course. No happenings are done in the islands and every transaction is allegedly done overseas. CP has to maintain his lifestyle and for now, his bookings have to do.
