It's funny how when the PR hype kicks into gear they can MAKE somebody huge for really no reason at all...it's like they go into overdrive trying to
convince people that this person or that person is 'hot,' until eventually we all believe it - then wa-lah! they're hot.
When the hype is not turned on, and not working overtime, it doesn't happen. Case in point for Meg Fox: The 2009 Golden Globes and MTV Awards.
I remember when Fox presented at the Globes back in January. She BARELY made a splash, it was all about Brad & Angelina smootching at their table, and Brad that, and Angelina that, and them snubbing Seacrest, and Kate Winslet....no one said boo about Megan Fox.
If that happened today (just 5-6 mos later), you'd probably have a million articles on a 'showdown' between Megan & Angelina.
Ditto, the MTV Awards, you wouldn't have even known Fox was there if not for the ugly slicked back do' she sported that got her a bit of neg press - that night was all about Rob Pattinson, and Kris Stewart and 'are they or aren't they?' The 'almost' kiss, the NM trailer, Bruno, eminem, etc.
...when the PR agents bring on the power of HYPE: 'ink,' and TV coverage - it's a different story.
