I guess every celebrity’s manager/publicist has their own way of doing things to promote a client but the road being traveled by Ali Lohan seems like the wrong road. In a recent interview for Teen Vogue, Ali Lohan discusses things about her sister, being a celebrity, and other things about her life. I feel like her sister has not necessarily been the best family member to go before her and pave the way. People will undoubtedly give Ali Lohan more attention in audition rooms but in the back of their minds will be the triumphs and tribulations of her sister, Lindsay Lohan.
In the interview with Teen Vogue, Ali Lohan says “I want it so bad. So bad you don’t even know. And now, it’s actually happening.” The sad part about that quote is she is not going on about how she loves acting, or the opportunities she has been given to express her so-called talent, but rather going on and on about being a celebrity! She is young and immature but her publicist should be guiding her on tips to have people taker her seriously! From the article tidbits it is obvious all Ali cares about is signing autographs, and being famous.
If I were her publicist I would have an entirely separate approach than her mother Dina Lohan has had. I think it is important to hear about why clients do what they do, what drives them, and what they are completely passionate about. I would want to know aside from the money, the autographs, the fame, is this still what Ali would want to do? Does she wake up yearning to be able to perform and showcase her talent – or does she wake up wanting to be recognized?
I am in no way attacking Ali Lohan. She truly is a young, cute girl who happens to be in an overly dramatic family. I just think if she truly wants this lifestyle, she should take a different tactic. Her sister will constantly over shadow her unless she steps out from her shadow and shows that she is different, that she cares not about all-night partying, but about working consistently in the business and creating a sustainable career.
Just My Thoughts…
