Andy Roddick's Popularity Soars After Wimbledon Loss

AWDean — Tue, 14 Jul 2009 06:10:20 -0700

Andy Roddick lost the match he most wanted to win, but, in the process, he gained something he might not have achieved, even with a victory. It seems tennis enthusiasts were so taken by Roddick’s determined effort against Roger Federer, perhaps the greatest tennis player of all time, that they have joined his camp as never before.

The match was a pure classic, a marathon slugfest, with Roddick holding serve thirty-seven times before he was finally broken in the thirtieth game of the fifth set.

The number of Roddick’s Twitter followers and Facebook fans spiked precipitously in the two days after the final. At the customized gift site, Great Friends Greetings, interest in personalized greeting cards from Roddick has soared, according to Kenny Perschetz, the company’s president.

There is always a spot in the sports fan’s heart for an underdog and no one fills that spot any better right now than Andy Roddick. It will be fun to watch him lay it all out there as he strives to achieve his second career grand slam title at the US Open this September, with a fan base that will be heavily in his corner from his first rocket-like serve.

The new version of Fame has got that big smash buzz as it approaches its opening on September 25. The film will likely catapult some very talented performers into the celebrity forefront, particularly Naturi Naughton.

Naturi has already had significant success on the screen, stage and studio, most recently as Lil' Kim in Notorious. But she has also starred on Broadway and nationally in the stage version of Hairspray as Little Inez and has a gold album on her wall from her teen days with the girl group 3LW. Nevertheless, Fame is likely to send Naturi's career on a whole new path and, with her talent, the sky's the limit!

The folks at Great Friends Greetings, producers of a unique gift line of celebrity-based greeting cards, couldn't be happier, as Naturi is one of their featured stars. At the Great Friends Greetings website, customers create actual custom printed personalized greeting cards from celebrities, typically sent as gifts. As Naturi's star climbs, so will the demand for her good wishes.
