More Celebrity Perks
I was checking out some celebrity gossip websites earlier today when I read something pretty interesting. It seems that some top 5-star resorts actually go out of their way to comp popular celebrities with free luxury vacations. This is a marketing ploy, of course, as the resorts hope that paparazzi will catch the celebs at play and mention the hotel name in the tabloids. Apparently, getting mentioned in the same sentence with some stars is good for business.
I don’t know why I’m so surprised at this news. I never thought of it before, but I guess it makes sense. Still, I just don’t understand the way the world works sometimes. Why is it that the people who can most afford to pay for things always get everything for free? Pro athletes get all of the free Nike or Reebok gear and casual clothing they want, movie stars get free Armani gowns and Harry Winston diamonds… I wish these companies would do the same for regular folks!!
