[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I worked with a lot of celebrities during their book stores. I worked for a company that contracted their promotional tours. A lot of the celebrities that are "dumb" are work horses and have really smart people around them and they are smart enough to listen and thus very rich. Britney Spears comes to mind, she wrote a small advice type book with her mom in the late 1990s. She really really works. And had a very detailed agenda that she highlighted each thing as accomplished. Always was on time, answer my calls, would write things down and very polite. Worked with her about 3 years ago for a very small promotional gig in a much more distant compactly but everyone said the same thing. Once again answer calls, always on time, wore what was asked of her and memorized down to the word anything asked of her to repeat. Teresa Guidice is also like this. She had a cookbook that my company promoted. Same thing. Not super smart but willing to do anything asked of her. Always on time, writes everything down, polite. She also is very blunt when she doesn't understand something and she is willing to learn it. Memorization is a strength of hers etc etc. I really respect a lot of these women that people are quick to trash. The reality is if you can get a cotton candy book deal, something that's all fluff, its because you have a brand but are willing to WORK. Book tours are not glamorous at all. Sitting in dying Borders in Eastern PA from 9 to 1 and 2 to 7 and maybe even 8 to 10 isn't easy. [/quote] So which one underwhelmed you? That is the topic you replied to.[/quote]
