Must Not Ask Too Much

When a company chooses a show or a set of entertainers, the decision of which celebrities to include in the lineup is crucial. The company must be assured that the actions onstage of the performers will be attuned to the theme of the show and the spirit of the company. Thus, an entertainer who spews green jokes might not be the right choice to perform in front of a wholesome set of patrons of the sponsoring company. Besides, companies would prefer celebrities who would at least be at par with the level of their prestige. Further, conforming to the terms of the company could limit the lineup of what the performers could do or not do onstage.

One time, Top Establishment (TE) contacted a Big Network (BN) for a show. Naturally, TE trusted BN to come up with a program that is at par with the values and the image of the company. As a leading corporation, TE has an admirable image and carries with its logo, a very important aspect of promoting the country. Hence, the performers should be of high-caliber. Besides, the audience comprises of people who would want a good show.

When BN started to form its lineup from its deep talent pool, Proud Celebrity (PC) was chosen to be part of the performers. PC did not hesitate at all because performing for TE is an achievement for any celebrity. The exposure would make the audience remember that PC is still very much active in his career. Besides, the potential benefits for performing in the show of TE might bring perks. Who knows, TE might actually be on the lookout for possible endorsers in the future. However, when PC learned about the honorarium, he was not at all satisfied. PC felt that he could get more than what TE offered, and thus he broached the idea of bringing his family as part of his entourage.

As soon as TE got wind of the demand of PC, the company made their recommendation. The demand was quite too much even though TE has enough financial resources. Thus, to avoid any conflict, BN continued the show, but no longer included PC in the lineup of performers. Having been in the business for quite a time, PC has never learned that, although he might be a celebrity and a top notch performer at that, certain terms should not be abused. After all, his lording over the entertainment arena has passed and now, he’s just part of the talent pool of BN.
