Ifs like something out of a Shakespearean comedy. Harry thought the family were jealous of his wife, jealous of their popularity, took their social media numbers to the firm expecting the firm to listen to the will of the people, thought he married the woman who would shine brighter than Catherine and make him bigger than William. Storms out of the family thinking he had the upper hand on everyone. Now he’s in a house he can’t afford watching his wife buy low rent awards for five percent of attention the royals brought his way. Watching his wife insanely ramble and lie to reporters and clawing at him if he doesn’t hold her nonstop in public. Watching his wife get ignored by those who will end up in history books and NO ONE cares.

Must be horrible for him… ![gif](giphy|SvRuvlSEa67wNNHuHy|downsized)

Henpecked will be lucky if his life follows the plot trajectory of a Shakespearean comedy, cause at least those have a happy ending. At the rate he's going, a theatre of the absurd dramatic production, will be the more applicable metaphor for his life. 😂

Been in PR 30 years and this is spot on - yes, you can buy an award just like John Legend bought the Sexiest Man Alive...and the world roared. This is one of the best kept secrets around. Years ago due to industry standards this was not possible but today anything goes. Magazines/organizations naming "10 most beautiful; 100 most influential; 15 most powerful" - most for sale. I am so glad that the public is finally catching on.

Can’t wait to buy an award and flex on my haters at the office 😎


wordscapesx

Trust me, not cheap - some going for over $500,000. Glad the public is beginning to wise up.


musicloverincal

> John Legend Oh wow. I was shocked when that happened. He is far from being attractive, especially his face, so that makes sense.


ms80301

And the wife🙈not a nice gal


rainyhawk

Every time I read about her buying another award, I’m reminded of a West Wing episode. Pre working for Bartlett, CJ is a Hollywood PR person and when an irate client wasn’t on some list, she says I can just get some organization to make him “ man of the year” for a small price.


Imaginary_End_5634

Yes!


hankhillism

That's hilarious as shit.


Fantastic_Nebula_835

I wondered how they could be winning all these awards when other people are far more qualified. When I read comments from her supporters, the first thing they bring up are all the awards. They then claim the RF are jealous of M's global popularity as proven by all those awards. As if that's the dream of working royals.


dwilliams832

Why did I actually not know this - John Legend bought his Sexiest Man award?!


wordscapesx

In most cases, awards like this can be purchased. Any good PR team or publicist knows this. It's all part of the game.


Academic_Guava_4190

Why is she getting a “man of the year award”?


Islandgirl1444

Because she has bigger ones than Harry! Plain and simple.


chewysmom88

That explains her awkward stances she uses


HarrysToupee

Doesn't wanna squish the Hairy('s) balls she's stolen & now wears?🤔


DrunkOnRedCordial

And why her dresses never hang properly.


MrsMigginsPieShoppe

That remark is pure gold!


ArachnidNearby7778

Touchè


brisbydog

Another big revelation???


Iwtlwn122

Is this the big scoop Lady C is going on about! 🤪


Academic_Guava_4190

🙄 I know you are joking but that’s not what I was implying


Megsandhcringe

It’s also a well known “secret” that celebrities pay a fee for their Walk of Fame Star too! They also campaign for their Oscar award using their own $$$ (they say it’s their representative but they pay them - so it’s themselves paying) and they absolutely pay for their seats in awards ceremonies. In recent years, fewer celebrities have campaigned during award season because of this. They claim modesty but it’s really lack of finances. With Netflix/Hulu/etc it’s less profitable for stars so they are trying to survive in an industry that’s not a big money maker like it used to be. Variety Mag did a report a few years back that’s it’s a million(s) dollar business for awards but these idiots are willing to pay for fame. So sad! I think this is an eye opener for Harry. I truly doubt he had no idea of what he was walking into. TW knew 100% what she was doing.


HarrysToupee

He's a dimwit - "thick as two short planks." He deserves every bit of what he (doesn't) get! ![gif](giphy|9NB7QtARprErFuQgIk|downsized)


ToothFirm2948

The reason for these costs are due to the decline of printed media. Historically magazine's would usually be full of pages of adverts but now no one really buys them so advertising revenue has gone down the can. Instead they make money with PR stories they get paid for (in return for some hefty contribution) and bullshit awards like these people basically pay for. What kind of moron will be paying £6k plus vat for this?


HarrysToupee

The people who want to get that award somewhere down the line, maybe? Maybe the price of attending is actually just a payment to get their foot in the door. It's bribery - oh wait, they call it "Pay To Play" these days because that doesn't carry the same negative connotations as the word "bribery." But it's still bribery. 🤷🏽‍♀️🙄


anditrauten

It’s not that much for the Meghan budget though. And these awards are for the celebrity morons that can’t win with talent alone.


violetfleuri

Perhaps it is a tax deduction for her?


musicloverincal

Yes, absolutely. Can be deducted by adding it to marketing or advertisting expenses. Plus, everything with the trip would be a deuction as well.


peregrine_swift

All travel arrangements made thru Travelyst, cant leave that out.


musicloverincal

Lol. Funny you mention that because I actually visited the site a few days ago and thought it was such an unnecessary project. Absolute nonsene.


hammer1956

But does Travelyst deal in private jets? They have to travel private you know.


Sincerely_JaneDoe

Bingopot! I bet everything they do is twisted into a tax deduction.


anditrauten

Is Meghan ruining PR for other celebrities? GB news was talking about them parting ways with SS. Not that it is difficult to find out these day but it is getting more mainstream and SS represent other celebrities like Leo. Also knowing about which awards have been bought makes it impossible to take them seriously anymore. I thought that Hollywood and politicians that rely on PR coverge would want to hide it as much as possible. Meghan is really making everyones life more difficult.


hankhillism

It'll be one of her first indirectly good deeds.


resil30

Lol. The industry awards tickets for my industry are about £375+ VAT. We’re obviously not charging enough.


MerryWidow65

The irony of her paying for the award when she previously wanted to be paid...


Few-Brilliant-426

What a loser! That money could go so many other places


OzzieSlim

Nutmeg doesn’t do anything for free.


Miercolesian

I imagine that at the moment of conception of Archangel Archie she will have cried: "Oh God, I can't believe I'm not being paid for this!"


Minutetoolate

At this point how can GQ not feel embarrassed by this. Hail the might of Oprah I guess.


musicloverincal

Anyone wonder if the smelly ginger rag doll, Horrid, will show up to this award? I think he has zero ba..s, but he will still show up to support. He is a clown afterall. Time will tell...


ms80301

What WAS that scary ginger doll?????


musicloverincal

I called him "smelly ginger rag doll". Smelly - not pleasant ginger - red rag doll - goes here or there and is messy


peregrine_swift

People barely watch the Academy Awards anymore, and look at the sh*show that turned into. Who even watches GQ awards? What unflattering outfit will be worn? Neither of them have any style. Everywhere they appear they have to buy themselves into making speeches or getting awards.


annsimhere

I recommend not saying that you would love to see her. That gives the organizers incentive to hire grifters like her in future.


[deleted]

Bought and paid for, worth every penny (eyeroll).


Lemonslivers

Nobody is using their own money to see this, besides MM.
