FWIW, the behavior surrounding Girl Talk is kind of interesting in
that it's sort of a one-off experiment in the value of celebrity. I
mean, when someone hires Girl Talk to show up, they're hiring him to
arrive with his laptop and press play on one of his albums, which is
something anyone could do for themselves. But the thing is, they don't
want to do it themselves, they want Girl Talk to do it. They're paying
for celebrity in isolation.

So, if you ever wonder how much celebrity is worth, find out how much
Girl Talk gets paid, and that's your answer.
