Dear Future Celebrities:

Good news. You can become famous quickly and ridiculously easy. Here’s how:

Just do something outrageous. Do it in public. Throw in a bit of stupidity and sex (or violence) and — bingo. Instant fame. Enjoy it…while it lasts!

Or you can do something worthwhile. If you get famous for that then great! If not, well…at least you won’t be a total jerk!

SCENE: Man and woman talking to a young woman.

MAN: As actors we can’t get arrested! But as bank robbers we’ll

WOMAN: If we don't get shot first!
