In recent news, PHILO, an application to watch "buzzworthy tv" for the new iPhone, announced that they would donate a small percentage of their proceeds to a new "charity" to help save New Jersey Housewife Teresa Giudice and her husband from losing so much during their bankruptcy proceedings.
Will this type of technology soon be the new way to sponsor celebrities in financial trouble? If you think about it, it's sort of the way to have a celebrity spokesperson during an economic downturn. What's more, real and everyday people can relate to bankruptcy, because so many millions are experiencing it. What if an honorable organization were to put together a fund to help Michael Vick raise funds? Would this lend credibility to his new image of trying to be a better person? How about Chanel pulling some strings to help Khloe Kardashian with her nearly $20,000 debt to the IRS? Would it boost Chanel sales, making it a smart business and marketing move on their part?
Interesting food for thought in the world of celebrity bankruptcy!
