Could this guy be any more of a narcissist?

I don't even know who he is, but this story made me roll my eyes:eyes:

In London, uninjured singer Omarion seeks prayers
NEW YORK (Reuters) - London was the scene of carnage on Thursday after a series of deadly blasts but American R&B crooner Omarion, who suffered no injury or inconvenience, wants people to pray for him.

"Omarion was in London during the tragic bombings that struck this morning," a statement by the singer's publicist AR PR Marketing, released hours after the bombings, said.

Making no mention of the fatalities or casualties of the blasts, the singer's statement concluded, "He would like his fans to pray that he has a safe trip and a safe return home. He appreciates your support."

He was in London for Saturday's Live 8 show, his publicist Shana Gilmore told Reuters from Los Angeles. Asked why anyone should pray for him, Gilmore said, "He wasn't hurt or anything, but just the fact that he was there and all that."

1. Is he asking them to donate a million dollars or God will call him home?

2. now he claims that he never said this
"Statements and sentiments appearing in a Reuters-syndicated article (Thu Jul 7, 2005 9:22 PM BST) and attributed to the American R&B singer Omarion were never made by the performer. Contrary to statements made in the article, Omarion is in no way affiliated with the firm, AR PR Marketing, nor is "publicist Shana Gilmore" a legitimate publicist acting on behalf of the artist. Omarion regrets any confusion and sends his thoughts and prayers to the families of the victims of this horrific tragedy."

4. And he's going to "Spend more time with his family"...
Ya-Ya, heard it all before. What is this business of when your PR gambit blows up under your ass, you deny that you had anything to do with it?
So does Omarion do his own singing? Or do unknown singers with no affiliation do it?

3. He was in the awful R&B group B2K
In case you were wondering who he is.

Now, on to figuring out why I actually know that.
