Nick Cannon Pimps Himself Out for his Birthday (Literally)
Funny man and husband to Mariah Carey, Nick Cannon, turns 30 next month. And what a way to celebrate, by having someone else foot the bill–“corporate sponsor” style. He already has confirmed guests like Jay-Z, Beyoncé, Will and Jada Smith, Ashton Kutcher and Demi Moore, Kobe Bryant, Quincy Jones, L.A. Reid and Jamie Foxx, but he’s looking for a corporate sponsorship to pay for it.
The perks for a sponsor? Glad you asked. A “host sponsor” includes “three tweets,” a “right to service out photos” and a “logo on all collateral.”
A one-sheet flier for the “Nick Cannon Birthday celebration hosted by Mariah Carey” offers sponsors the chance to pay $2,500 to be in the gift bag, while a $15,000 donation includes “one tweet” and “mention in all p.r. materials.” (…ONE tweet though?)
(…Remember when Star Jones tried to have sponsors cover the bill for her lavish wedding to Al Reynolds? Viewers, from The View, got all pissy about it. I for one am a fan. Hell, pay for my birthday…) Full story here.
