Dr. PhilIn 1995, Oprah Winfrey hired Phil McGraw’s legal consulting firm to prepare for the Amarillo Texas beef trial. Winfrey was so impressed with him that she thanked him for her victory in that case, which ended in 1998. Soon after, she invited him to appear on her show, which turned into a recurring segment. He turned that into his own show and now 25 years in the spotlight.

He was kind enough to share his perspective with Bored Panda.“Celebrities should build a strong personal brand, diversify their talents, strategically partner with others, master social media, and carefully manage their public image,” he said.Some other ways to contribute to long-term fame would be to continuously evolve one’s career, as well as engage in philanthropy, and create compelling content.

Cash me outside girl? That was one dumb throwaway then made millions from fidget spinners , rap career to the next stupid scams up until make 50 mil on only fans.She’s as trashy as they come but has squeezed every dollar from her fame.
For the UK - Gemma Collins. Literally zero skills, capacity to think or worthwhile for the world.
Kevin Federline. Dude was and is a nobody.ListMore5157:Dude pops up in the news every time they have a new Britney story. He’s like Kato Katlin with OJ.
Consistency, originality, hard work, and passion can improve your chances of making it big. However, they’re not always enough. There’s a lot of luck involved in getting famous. No matter how skilled, talented, charismatic, and unique you might be, you still need a helping hand from Lady Luck to get noticed. Having your content go viral or connecting with someone well-known in your industry can send your renown rocketing into the stratosphere.However, once you get noticed, what you do with all of that attention depends on you and your goals. Some are happy to enjoy their time in the sun and then move on. Others strike while the iron is hot. They quickly work to retain that attention or turn it toward the products and services they’re involved in. In short, they try to capitalize on their exposure and create the foundation for something long-lasting.

I got employee of the year in 2022 and for some reason my picture is still hanging on the employee of the year wall, even though another employee of the year was named in 2023.
Kyle Rittenhouse is a good one. Regardless of your opinion of him it’s pretty hard to deny that we only know his name because he was a stupid kid who f****d around and found out.My first thought was Octomom though. Literally famous for being pregnant and made her entire income for decades off that.
Much as it kills me to say it, Jared Fogle. He lost a bunch of weight eating Subway, got a write-up in Men’s Health, and filmed a few local commercials. That should have been the end of it, but then Subway decided to run with it nationally. He became an icon and inspiration for people who wanted to lose weight. He’d probably still be making a living as a Subway spokesman if he wasn’t in jail.
Because it’s impossible to know when you might go viral or get famous, it’s useful to have some sort of digital infrastructure set up in advance.For example, if you’re an amateur artist, crafter, or baker who wants to get famous, you should definitely consider what impression your online presence gives off. It makes perfect sense to have a professional-looking website where you can feature your portfolio, contacts, and pricing (e.g., if youdo commissions). The easier it is for potential clients to get in touch with you, the less ‘friction’ there is in communication, the better for your burgeoning business.Furthermore, you probably want to link all of your socials together. For instance, you can feature links to your social media pages (Instagram, X, TikTok, Facebook, whatever else you prefer) on your website. Meanwhile, you can add a link to your site in the bio of your social media pages. That way, no matter what online platform someone finds your work, they can easily navigate to your site and buy whatever it is you’re selling.

Of course, while it’s important to earn a living (food and housing ain’t free), money is far from the only reason why people want to get famous. They might be incredibly passionate about a certain subject and want to share their skills and knowledge with the world. They might revel in other people’s attention and simply want to be liked. Or they might want to use all the attention they get for good, such as fighting for social causes or supporting charitable organizations.Fame doesn’t necessarily have to be a ‘bad’ thing. Wanting to be adored and respected is a very human desire. How society perceives your fame will depend a lot on what you do with it.

Ryan sea crest.jarrettbrown: Seacrest was really smart with all the moves he made. From taking over American Top 40 to becoming the host of Wheel of Fortune, the man can stay in the spotlight all he wants.
Charli D’Amelio for sure.
What would be the first things you would do if you got globallyfamoustomorrow, Pandas? Which celebrities do you think are the best at milking their time in the spotlight? Do you think they deserve the attention they get?
Rovio, with Angry Birds. The game was ridiculously popular in 2011 during the early days of mobile gaming, and they spun that into an entire franchise which was (briefly) enormously popular and profitable.
Jordan Petersen. He offered one opinion publicly and yadda-yadda-yadda, now he’s giving interviews dressed like a rodeo clown and espousing the virtues of eating beef while his former therapy patients rethink everything he ever said to them. It’s the dictionary definition of quality mental health treatment.
