FacebookSteven Slater's head remains in the clouds, even if his professional duties don't.
America's most famous flight attendant (and emergent folk hero) is grabbing two beers and jumping to Tinseltown, having enlisted the PR services of top spinmeister Howard Bragman.
Apparently, he'd like fame as well as infamy.
"I can officially confirm that I am now representing Steven Slater," Bragman said in a statement.
"While my work will include media relations, my team at Fifteen Minutes"—incidentally, never has a company name seemed quite so apropos—"and I will be helping him sort out the scores of offers that have come through in the past week from media producers, brands and other interested parties.
"I very much believe that Steven touched a nerve with the American people and am proud to be helping him tell his story at the appropriate time in the appropriate way."
Which, considering the questions mounting about the passenger-induced events that led up to Slater's great escape (now with video! and a soundtrack!) and the possible jail time he faces after his Sept. 7 hearing, would appropriately be as soon as possible.
Bragman has previously handled Isaiah Washington, Chaz Bono and, for one day, anyway, Oksana Grigorieva.
As for Slater, here's hoping he can handle Hollywood's rarefied air.
