Stars happy with tabloids

LONDON:

Actor Wilmer Valderrama was happy when tabloids started writing about his love life because it helped launch his acting career. According to contactmusic.com, Valderrama claims tabloids allowed him to get rid of his nerdy image when it started talking about him as a Hollywood icon. He had dated celebrity women like Lindsay Lohan, Mandy Moore and Ashlee Simpson. He says: “Everybody thought I was Fez (That 70’s Show) until people started to care about who I was dating. If anything, my career blossomed because of the tab-loids?” Pop star George Mic-hael is also happy he’s been in the tabloids lately because it is helping him promote his new single An easier affair. He says: “In all honesty it does me good. I take crap for a couple of weeks but it promotes my new single. I hate to say it, but it’s true.” — HNS
