  • Parklife Text Campaign Offends Those with Deceased Mothers, Earns £70,000 Fine from Information Commissioners' Office

    There are good ideas and bad ideas. Publicists are the professionals you hire to point out when your great ideas might have holes in them that could quickly become horrible ideas. The publicists for the Parklife music festival in Manchester probably should have found some issues with the event's 2014 plot to lure fans to the official after-parties by sending them a text from "Mum." It seems like a cute idea at first...until you consider the inevitable fact that at least a few of the attendees probably have deceased mothers. Anyway, that's one of several reasons why Parklife was fined £70,000 by the British Information Commisioners' Office.

The "Happy" singer was awarded with a Hollywood Walk Of Fame star of his own, the 2537th bellowed upon an esteemed and prestigious celebrity or artist.
