Attention Whore: Difference between revisions

* Carmelita Spats from ''[[A Series of Unfortunate Events]]''. As well as Esmé Squalor and to some extent, Count Olaf. Naturally, Carmelita is adopted by Esme and Count Olaf in book eleven and thought of as "the daughter she never had".

* Gilderoy Lockhart from the ''[[Harry Potter (novel)|Harry Potter]]'' series. Even after {{spoiler|he accidentally erased his own memory with Ron's broken wand}} he still thinks people want his autograph. Why? "I suspect it is simply my good looks!"

** The staff of the hospital seem to think Lockhart's penchant for autographs means he's recovering. That said, he's vaguely aware that some people think he's a big deal, he just has no idea why that might be. But he likes the attention (another good sign, according to the healers), so he doesn't really let it cost him any sleep.

* Joyce Reynolds from the [[Hercule Poirot]] novel ''Hallowe'en Party.''
