That's No Way to Become a Lifestyle Guru
Tuesday, January 22, 2008 | posted by Mike
You'll remember that, last week, we linked to a story about Rachael Ray allegedly going crazy and trashing Dunkin Donuts during a photo shoot? She says: "Not so fast." She's telling OK! magazine (the credibility is evident in the exclamation point) that it was:"Ridiculous," she said when asked about the scurrilous rumor. "It's ridiculous. It's absolutely ridiculous."OK, Rach. Here's some free advice for you. Everyone has been comparing you to various other lifestyle gurus. I think you know to whom I'm alluding.
You've done a very good job of building your brand, making yourself attractive to a wide variety of viewers and diversifying your business into a number of different areas. That's fantastic.
But the problem is that you can never truly be considered a "domestic diva" until you turn on your underlings and enact a reign of terror over all that exist within your sphere of influence.
So get on it. Smack around a gofer. Browbeat a sponsor. Throw a cell phone at a PA's head.
Do SOMETHING...or you can kiss good-by your ticket to mega-riches and a 10-month stint in minimum security prison.
