There appears to be a brand new twist on superstar feuds that’s benefiting many non-profit organizations.
If a star is attacked or offended, as a substitute of getting even, now they flip it right into a advertising and marketing marketing campaign.
There are two notable ones that I do know of as a result of effectively, they’re matters I’m excited by. One is said to NASCAR and the opposite nation music.
Hendrick Motorsports driver Alex Bowman, who drives the 48 automotive, has offered many a T-shirt when blasted by one other driver. Bowman gained the Las Vegas race earlier this season and Kyle Busch, upset that he was near victory, with some expletives thrown in stated that Bowman at all times backs into wins, in essence saying he doesn’t earn them.
Bowman had a T-shirt designed that claims All Luck, No Ability on the entrance with a Vegas theme and the again collar options, you guessed it, the phrase “Backing Into Wins.”
As a Hendrick Motorsports fan I root for Bowman, Chase Elliott, William Byron and Kyle Larson so sure I needed to spend some cash on that T-shirt, with proceeds going to space animal shelters.
Most lately I’ve been studying a couple of feud between Brittany Aldean (spouse of singer Jason Aldean) and a number of other different ladies, most notably Maren Morris.
Fox Information entertainer Tucker Carlson known as Morris a “lunatic” on his present whereas interviewing Brittany Aldean.
And, sure, Morris has made her personal T-shirt “Maren Morris, Lunatic Nation Music Particular person.” Proceeds might be break up between the GLAAD Transgender Media Program and Trans Lifeline. It consists of the Trans Lifeline hotline quantity – 1-877-565-8860. Trans Lifeline provides direct emotional and monetary help to trans folks in disaster. Individuals can name the hotline in the event that they “want somebody trans to speak to, even in the event you’re not in disaster or in the event you’re undecided you’re trans.”
In accordance Billboard journal on Sept. 3, Morris has raised greater than $100,000.
Bowman’s T-shirt in response to Kyle Busch was not the primary time he did this. On the finish of the season in 2021, Denny Hamlin known as Bowman a “hack” after he bought spun out as the 2 had been racing for the win in Martinsville.
The T-shirt, hoodie and jackets had been easy with the phrase “HACK” on it and the ABR emblem (Alex Bowman Racing). Once more, proceeds went to space animal shelters.
Bowman may even make enjoyable of himself. After a win in Richmond final season, his crew chief criticized his burn out and Bowman stated, “ya, ya recover from it. No one Likes Us Anyway.” It was a prime vendor till the Hack shirt.
With Bowman in tenth place within the playoff standings, I’m betting there might be one other T-shirt earlier than the season ends.
I’m not penning this to debate what was stated within the feuds, that’s a subject for an additional day, however I do like what is going on. Don’t like what somebody says, let’s not get offended by it, however use it to assist out a corporation; don’t get indignant, have some enjoyable with it.
