How to become famous?

[Second Summer]

If I wanted to become famous enough that it entitled me to get a Wikipedia article, what would I have to do? Please discuss.

Everyone who makes amature porn is famous?

 

[Blobbenstein]

I think that would have to be amateur porn involving the queen for that to work, or the pope or something.

 

[Blobbenstein]

IS said he missed the chance to meet the queen.....not sure the pope would be interested.

Become a contractor for the NSA and then leak info.

Can't you just create a Wikipedia article for yourself?

Shoot a black kid and then claim you were just defending yourself.

Star in a reality TV show.

Walk a high wire between two tall buildings while naked.

Audition to be the next Batman, and win the audition.

or the next Doctor Who

or run for elected office and say something really head-slapping stupid. (Okay, that's a real stretch for a smart guy like IS, but it works for other people)

Or maybe a Kardashian sister.

I heard Ben Affleck was cast as Batman in the latest movie. I would way rather see IS as Batman, sight unseen.

Affleck was the bomb in Phantoms, yo.

Start a band?

Start a band?

That in itself isn't going to get him famous. If it was a naked punk band that threw M&M's at the audience and exhorted their fans to support Pussy Riot and got on the evening news for being in a car crash or something, THAT would work.

Accompany an up and coming rock band and write a story for Rolling Stone... well almost.
