Her Grandiose Response

When a celebrity has proven that he/she can have a string of hit movies, have a long list of endorsements, and have constant media appearances, much is still expected from him/her. Thus, when Overexposed Celebrity (OC) staged a major performance a few months ago, expectations were high and great anticipation filled the air as the audience assumed a personal milestone would happen. Unfortunately, the show had no gimmicks except for OC’s performance, and the slow filling up of the venue and the late start of her concert were used to gauge that her event was unsuccessful. However, she did manage to fill the venue and her camp explained that the event made money, such that a repeat was not impossible.

In her years in the business, OC has amassed loyal followers who will defend her against detractors and criticisms. Her loyal followers will discredit information against the quirks of OC. When some people recount unpleasant experiences with OC, expect her fans to explain that OC is not what the negative publicity portrayed her to be. Still, OC is not as friendly as some of her contemporaries and has been known to be snobbish at times.

Later, some producers decided to gamble and bring OC to another area where they hoped she would be able to duplicate the attendance in her initial concert. This time, however, their returns on their investment were not as lucrative. The venue was allegedly not even half of the projected number, and thus, attendance for OC’s out of town concert was quite low. It seemed that the people in the area were not interested to watch OC. Of course, the other reason could be the timing. The concert was scheduled near some major annual events, which are prioritized more than anything else in the area.

Success depends upon previous preparation, and without such preparation there is sure to be failure. – Confucius
