With the growth of the country as an entertainment destination, organizers have recognized the value of bringing over international celebrities to perform or to endorse certain products. Others are invited for fanmeets and perform exclusively for loyal fans. Still, other celebrities participate in panel discussions or merely just show their faces in front of the crowd.

Inviting such celebrities takes much effort, not to mention the right amount of fee to pay for the appearance. Then, matters of the country’s image are sometimes considered by celebrities. Quietly, some celebrities would slip to a secluded beach or hie off somewhere away from places where they might be easily recognized. Other demands include having the best accommodations. Nonetheless, regardless of the demands, the priority is the schedule of the activities of these celebrities. Having commitments in their countries, flying to the country takes much time, and thus, every second they are here has to be for a significant purpose.

Sometime ago, a Noted Personality (NP) came over to promote a product. NP was bubbly in public appearances and responded with charm during press interviews. Naturally, meeting NP would be such an honor. Certain Celebrity (CC) allegedly wanted to meet NP even for just a few seconds. After all, CC must have been a huge fan of the work of NP. Thus, CC sent feelers if the family could meet up with NP.

What’s a few seconds, right? Well, NP declined the request. NP stuck to the schedule and did not consider that CC was influential. Of course, being turned down infuriated CC, but nothing could be done and no sense of entitlement worked. As predicted, NP flew out of the country as quick as the time spent doing the promotions.

‘What annoys people is the idea that somebody has everything, and they're allowed to get away with anything. It's the sense of entitlement that gets up people's noses.’ Douglas Booth
