Today's PR example can be summed up in two words ... Tiger Blood. Charlie Sheen lately has made everyone in the PR world cringe and everyone else awkwardly laugh. Watching Sheen do his press tour made me glad I don't ever want to be a publicist and those are apparently his former publicists thoughts as well, seeing that he quit as soon as he heard about the numerous interviews Sheen had planned. It doesn't take a scholar to realize that Charlie Sheen's recent behaviors are doing nothing but give him publicity, but the debate is how well this is going to help him in the long run. Everyone knows Sheen is a train wreck, we're all just waiting to see the crash.. Don't believe me ? You obviously haven't seen Sheen's Korner.
So will his latest actions help him? He has been the topic of every news channel and even has a website dedicated to all the ridiculous things that come out of his mouth, its called Live the Sheen Dream. It's just insane the things that have actually come out of his reported drug free mouth. He's making quick money of his recent rants and quote of the day through t-shirt deals, but that isn't going to get him his job back with Two and a Half Men. I think Charlie is planning on riding on this whole shock value act for as long as he can ... but what happens after that Charlie? You have people placing bets on when your #tigerblood runs out, so cash in on it while you can or at least while you are alive.
I sadly laughed at this tweet because its so true:
"Parents show your kids the Charlie Sheen videos, they'll never want to try drugs...ever."
