Branding With Baby

So want to make a name for yourself. Have a baby!! All the big name stars are doing it now. It is a virtual baby factory in Hollywood right now with the two biggest stories being Angelina Jolie and Britany Spears.

Brad and Angelina and their time in Africa has assured them front page status on every tabloid in every country. I mean you could do a collage of the different stages of Angelina’s pregnancy just from Star Magazine alone. Their trek across the dark continent has been tabloid fodder and recognition fuel for the couple. Their next movie should be a smash just from the exposure they have received.

Britany has made a different splash with her child rearing exploits, or lack thereof i should say. Even negative exposure is exposure and Britany is proving that point in spades. Every picture of her has her baby being held in a precarious position or riding in the back of her car in some dangerous fashion. What is she thinking? Does she not know how to carry a baby? All of that time on the tour bus and she didnt think to read even a pamphlet on basic child safety? The fact I am even writing about Britany in this way shows that the exposure she is getting will almost doom her next project be it a movie or CD or dare I say a child care how to book!!!

If Britany can redeem herself in the eyes of the public before she accidently kills her baby she may just save her career. But for now shes just seen as a poor mother holding a booze filled drink in her hand. If I wanted to see pictures like that I would just walk around a welfare office!

Of course BradJelnia’s baby could probably be accepted as the next messiah if they wanted it to be.

If you have a baby in Hollywood make sure you can show the folks who are paying your million dollar salaries that you can still take care of the more important things in your life, like your children.
