When a celebrity is officially dropped from a brand the publicist should focus immediately on providing comfort and consolation, send a big gift basket and be there 24/7 for them, they should also give reassurances about the future and offer actions about what that celebrity can take to make their situation better. Telling a client to drop out of the public eye for a few months isn't a bad idea. Right now the world is moving so fast and most people have a very short attention span. The likelihood of a global event or national scandal eclipsing what your client had been involved in is reasonably high. Let time heal.

Hell, I was on the Jay Leno Show about the book, and the LA Times couldn't care less, by any standards, I'm a success story, come from the inner city … I defy anybody to follow my father's past: eighth grade drop out, buying a house that cost $600,000 by working two jobs. You could never do it. They don't care about that, but they care about calling me a sellout, and Uncle Tom, and Jean Guerrero and the LA Times should be ashamed of themselves.

I've never seen them so happy. The mood at Palmetto Ridge is in contrast to some other bands and performers who are refusing to attend for political reasons. Not one Washington, D.C., high school marching band will be in Trump’s Inauguration Day parade, the first time that has happened in six inaugurations. There are also online petitions gathering signatures to urge some marching bands to drop out, like the University of Tennessee-Knoxville’s and the Talladega College Band in Alabama. I don't look at it as a political issue.
