“It's impossible to stay relevant by saying stupid things.”
I doubt it’s a question of staying relevant, it’s more a question of staying on people‘s minds, publicity. That’s especially true in this day and age of the internet “fame game” as opposed to pre-internet celebrity life. They need the likes and name-recognition and screen time that puts them on top of other celebrities and on top of news items. Relevancy might be described differently by different people, and often it is the immoral, illegal or unhealthy behavior that gets people noticed these days. For many people, the only bad publicity is lack of publicity.

Absolutely. The only bad publicity is no publicity.
