CELEBRIBIES: THEY ARE NOTHING WITHOUT PUBLICISTS

Some people may wonder why some celebrities are more popular or percieved than others, their appearence in the media/ media coverage is times-two than others...why? if you don't know why, let me tell you "its because of their publicists" who send news about their clients (celebrities) to the media. These publicists play a vital role in shaping individual's reputation, for an examples, public figure such as Minnie Dlamini has her own publicists.

ABOVE: the importance of publicity in
entertainment industry.

You can (sometimes) find that artists especially those who are  still struggling have no one who is responsible for the public relations activities or they just hire their friends or relative to hold public relations activities, maybe because they believed that they has connections in the media industry but when the times' going you discover that there is no success, there are no connections, where do you think they up to? they end up not unknown.
 My point here is to emphasize the importance of publicists in celebrity lifestyles (industry), thus each public figure must have his/her publicist of which will benefit his/her popularity.

  9. I agree with you that each person who is in the industry where the media is involved should and must have a publicist, as it will educate and inform him/her about the media and how to deal with it.The media can in a way ruin a celebrities image and reputation if that person has no publicist to take care of him/her.
