    I think it’s more about increasing perceived value. I’ve definitely seen professionals literally just paying for awards.

      Oh, perceived value… I guess that would be the outward side of ego for individuals like celebs. lol Only so many careers where those two can go hand in hand. (although under very much NOT meritocratic capitalism, ego goes a lot further than it should…)
