Akon needs friends

Ok so remember that video clip I posted up a minute ago where Akon tosses that kid off the stage? Well since then, Akon's released his half assed public apology track "Sorry Blame Me" to clean up his image (seriously, that track might as well have been named "Fuck you, shit ain't my fault"). In fact dude's taking it up the PR notch by trying to get fans to be in his Top Friends on his Myspace page.

Apparently, Mobile Faker have teamed up with Akon to launch this contest. The folks at Mobile Faker claim that their mobile application is the key to climbing up the social ladder. Faux calls to get you out of sticky situations, the latest news in pop culture and music so you know whats up.. and fake boyfriends/girlfriends to show off to other people called InstaMates... if you're on sprint its 4 bucks for the version with all the bells and whistles. Otherwise you can access it free via mobile internet at m.mobilefaker.com.

So the catch is: people gotta upload themselves as InstaMates... meaning upload a pic of yourself with a short fake bio so that other people can dl these profiles and pretend that they have a boyfriend/girlfriend. The entry that is most downloaded by folks wins the coveted spot on Akon's page.

Oh and uh I might've assisted in putting this contest together... BUHAHAHA.

Enter to win.
