Is any publicity better than no publicity? Do the stars benefit when their names are connected with lurid activities? The public wants to know.

Has Elizebeth Taylor, for example, depreciated her image by downplaying her public support of Michael Jackson when his tabloid trials turned tricky?

In the entertainment industry perhaps, but not in everyday scenarios.

Would Elizabeth benefit by throwing herself as a bone to the masses?

Sex tapes were good for Paris Hilton, Pamela Anderson, ect. Pee Wee Herman didn't fare to well. I guess it depends on the exact nature of the publicity.

If anyone of those women masturbated in a movie theater the media would eat it up.
Pee Wee doesnt really have any sex appeal.

If you want to test that proverb, wear a gorrilia costum on the 20th at the swearing in ceremony next month and see what happens.
