If it’s fans going out to get other fans (street teaming?) then that’s one thing, but if incentives are offered…

The poster above you just made that up to make a joke. The Sony PR team did not say this. This is how rumors get started.

Well then why don’t they simply call it street teaming? The idea of a manufactured ‘mass hysteria’ just sounds extremely um…manufactured to me.

Ehh, I think they DO call it that? And street teaming is often organized by the label/management I thought… (hence the PR trick comment).

It’s called street teaming and I think it’s a common PR trick. I thought both Kris and Allison had street teams?

Ultimately, it doesn’t matter to me, but I hate the disillusionment that comes with thinking that my faves may have had some things ‘set up’ to make them seem more popular. I just hope the organic process is still in place somewhere.

Eh, I’m blabbering. LOL.

Not saying he’ll need that kind of help; he’ll most likely have a pretty decent turn out.

IDK if it was locked or not — didn’t notice. But it was in the O.P., not within the comments section. I just think the idea of trying to manufacture “mass hysteria” for anyone is ridiculous and rather calculated. Nothing against Adam himself — I’d think the same thing if Kris’s p.r. team tried it, or anyone’s p.r. team tried it. And I think they can create a nice buzz for Adam’s promotional campaign without this idea. Maybe my problem is that when I read this, I immediately got a vision in my head straight out of “A Hard Day’s Night”, with screaming girls chasing Adam through a train station…

According to a thread on ontd_ai, the Sony P.R. people are trying to arrange for Adam’s promotional visits to the UK in March and April to be greeted by “mass hysteria”.

:lol

Considering the fact that hardly anyone knows who he is yet (as with any new Idol grad) they’ll have an uphill battle.

But he does have some devoted fans here (as do many other Idols) and I’m sure if they can create ‘mass hysteria’ out of a handful of fans for their new ‘superstar’, then they will do!

There’s a new gig listed for Kris on his official site — April 17
Paradise Island, Bahamas , Atlantis Paradise Island Resorts

Evidently Kelly’s played there before. Anyone on here ever been there? I’ve always wanted to go to the Bahamas…”

It’s reeaallly nice at Atlantis. Performing at the casino theatre, I guess. You may not want to come home. And we’d miss you here. heh heh.
Kris and Adam must be exhausted. I’m exhausted reading about their gigs and promos. Kris is going to have major jetlag when he gets back. He will definitely need some R & R.

In other celebrities-helping-Haiti news, Kris Allen tells us he will make a trip there, but he promises not to turn it into a photo op. “I’m going to go in March,” the American Idol winner says. “Simon Fuller asked me, ‘You want to go to Haiti?’ and I was like, ‘Absolutely!’ I want to help out in any way I can.”

That is lulztastically funny. If I thought I could find any way to use it, I would totally buy that. Plus, 4 different versions of NoBo is 4 times the inspiration! or is it desperation? Some -ation thing.

That guy doesn’t look like Kris, more like someone who leaves literature at your door. And the Adam looks like that onces he’s done eating that microphone…he’s coming for your FACE!

LOL

is this a joke?

Top-grade tour, and really wonderful opportunity for Danny to continue getting experience and to make new fans as well as bring his AI fans out with something to be really excited about. The news certainly justifies what that country DJ was telling a call-in listener a week or so ago — that he knew what the tour would be, and she and other fans would be “thrilled” once they learned about it.

I’m a Danny fan and I am absolutely thrilled! This is exactly what his team needs to do. No Idol will survive on their Idol fans alone and teaming Danny up to tour with such a hot new country act like Sugarland is just what the Dr. ordered! Once they see Danny live he will gain new fans, just like he did on the Idol tour.

And congrats to Danny for getting on the CMT 12 pack countdown. He is in good company there and came in right above Keith Urban =)
