Michael Avenatti Wants The Press To Stop Calling Him A ‘Celebrity,’ Please And Thank You

Michael Avenatti is teasing the idea of a presidential run. All evidence suggests that he’s serious, but you can never be too sure. Those celebrity-types will do absolutely ANYTHING for attention– even pretend to run for POTUS two years in advance just to get some airtime.

Oops. My bad. I just called him a celebrity-type, didn’t I? That’s a big no-no in the porn lawyer’s book. He would really appreciate it if the press refrained from describing him as a “celebrity,” please and thank you. He’s just like us! He walks on grass and stuff!

What an amazing three days in Iowa. A state fair. Pork chops on a stick. A visit with a leading farming family. And tonight: the #WingDing. #Basta #FightClub pic.twitter.com/CnHMrRRcXt

But seriously. Celebrity. Stop calling him that. It’s too much. There’s SO MUCH MORE to him, you see. That label takes away from his many, many accomplishments.

To the press – pls stop calling me a “celebrity.” I am not one. I am a 18 yr lawyer that has successfully fought on behalf of Davids vs. Goliaths in complicated cases across the nation, including many involving constitutional law. I first started working on FISA issues in 1996.

Falsely labeling me a “celebrity” allows one to ignore my background and legal experience dealing with many complicated issues at the forefront of our society. It also allows for ridiculous comparisons to a certain reality star, who knew nothing about the law or government.

That being said, please enjoy this non-celebrity photo shoot with other non-celebrities for a non-celebrity magazine.
