Clout Hunter:
A clout hunter is someone who relentlessly chases popularity, attention, or fame — often at the expense of others and with very little common sense. They’ll jump on any viral trend, force collaborations, or pull dramatic, over-the-top stunts just to get noticed.
Clout hunters may harass, chase, or even stalk real celebrities, trying to get filmed with them or sneak into their spotlight for a quick hit of fame. They might also spread rumours or bad-mouth people online to boost their own image.
They’ll sometimes put themselves — and others — in danger by attempting reckless or idiotic stunts, like climbing buildings or hanging off ledges, all for the chance to go viral. These stunts can lead to serious injuries, prison time, or even death.
A clout hunter can be a complete nobody desperately seeking recognition, or someone already a bit famous who constantly needs more attention to stay relevant.

Get the Clout Hunter mug.Stupid things high schoolers with overbearing parents do because it will "look good to colleges." Examples being stupid presentations on poster boards to big bureaucratic organizations, trying to pass stupid laws while still in high school, or anything else that these kids legitimately don't care about but only do it because mommy and daddy want them to go to Harvard.
