Jameson Blake Learns Why Paying For Art With a Shoutout IS NEVER COOL
Pinoy Big Brother alumni and hashtag member Jameson Blake has been on the receiving end of some very angry netizens due to his tweet asking his 300+ twitter followers for graphic work for his youtube account called “LucidExpress” in exchange for a shoutout to the winner.
That’s literally inviting a mob of angry artists to throw tomatoes at you, read the thread here and judge for yourselves how Jameson took the wrong approach to seek graphic work:

And of course within minutes his followers were quick to correct the young actor on his insensitivity with a barrage of angry tweets:

Many took their own fun to create art for Jameson for his channel “LucidExpress” just like he asked, just not in a way he would have wanted:

Eventually, someone did answer Jameson’s call for a banner and created him one that he handsomely paid with a ‘shoutout’. Unfortunately, the girl was reported to have been cyberbullied for doing Jameson’s banner proving his point that there will indeed be an artist out there that will be willing to go with a ‘shoutout’ for payment of services.

Jameson then took to tweet his apology to the issue:

Hopefully, he learned his valuable lesson that nothing that involves dutiful hard work is ever going to deserve to be free even if you’ve attained star status.
