Four Frugal Ways To Become Famous [Must Read]
Do you ever wonder how celebrities like Wizkid, Olamide, Omotayo amongst others became so famous? Is it because they are better-looking, financially loaded or more talented?
No, more often than not, these people have a team of publicists who are carefully and continually oiling their wheels of fame and popularity.
Looking for the glow of neon lights but don't want to spend a lot of green? Here are four frugal ways to get famous but note if your goal is to become famous and be forgotten about within a month, then skip to the end of the article. But if you want to become famous and retain your celebrity status keep on reading.
In order to become famous and at the same time grow on your newly acquired celebrity status, you need to do the following:
1) Decide What You'll Be Famous For: Do you want to out-cook Gordon Ramsay? Do you want to record duets with Beyonce or sell novels like J.K. Rowling? Selecting a fame-worthy career is the first step toward becoming famous.
Artistic careers like music, acting, writing, or painting require one to build a "business of one." You'll have to sell yourself in any of these fields and build a name for yourself, which is some level of fame. If someone you've never met knows your name, that's a level of fame.
We associate careers in the arts--actors and musicians--with "fame," but any public figure qualifies as famous. Politicians, football coaches, local business owners, and even weathermen are recognizable in the grocery store.
Consider public service. Doctors, lawyers, and firemen can become locally or regionally famous for their deeds. You don't need to be Kanye West to consider yourself famous
2) Create A Celebrity image: Becoming famous is much more than just showing to the world who you are, you need to promote yourself and at the same time be presentable. Engage yourself with things that are remarkable, with this people will talk about you.
3) Get Exposure/ Promote Yourself: I can't over emphasize what publicity can do (a good and real one). For those who are into entertainment, get a better promoter but note "you spend before you earn". So pay a better promoter who is capable of pushing you to the celebrity zone.
4) Display A Unique Look: As a celebrity you always need to stand out, you need to attract attention to yourself and seem more colorful and brighter than everyone else.
I can't over emphasize how having a Unique Look can make or break your Celebrity Career.
If you listen to electro or house music you probably know who Deadmau5 is. He is a DJ and his music niche is so overpopulated with other DJs, that it is almost impossible to become famous, because of the high competition, no matter how good you are.
But he found a way to be unique: he wears a costume - a giant mouse head. This costume makes him
stand out from the crowd.
Yes, of course his music is great, but the fact that he has a giant mouse head makes him stand out from all the other DJs who are as good as he is.
Now, I'm not saying "have a costume or wear a giant mouse head", but instead find a way to stand out with Your Unique Look.
