Top 50 Publicity Stunts

Taylor Herring, a London-based PR agency known for high profile consumer campaigns, has compiled a list of their favorite 50 publicity stunts. Of course they included a couple stunts of their own. But who can blame them? They’re one of the best!

Following are a few of my picks from the list:

Prince Changes His Name

Following a row with his record company, Prince announced to the world (on June 7th, 1993) that he would be changing his name to an unpronounceable symbol.

Borat At The White House

In September 2006, Secret Service officers denied Borat access to The White House. Sacha Baron Cohen’s creation had hoped to persuade ‘Premier George Walter Bush’ to attend a screening of his film. The antics prompted the Kazakh government to disown the movie, which went on to take more than $248 million worldwide.

Polar Bear Stranded On The Thames

Taylor Herring’s launch stunt for natural history channel Eden.
