Meghan Markle, you probably thought your “A-server” brand was destined for red carpets, flashing cameras, and a flood of invites from every glamorous corner of the globe, right? Well, hold that thought—because Glen Powell just swooped in and showed you how it’s really done. And spoiler alert: it’s not with a DIY disaster that looks like it was thrown together in a dollar store parking lot. Glen Powell, the Top Gun: Maverick star, launched his new product line, Smash Kitchen, with a legit event that puts Meghan’s efforts to shame. Forget overpriced vegan cosmetics—Glen debuted his organic pantry staples at a swanky private estate in Los Angeles, not some paparazzi-crashing stunt.
The guest list? Pure A-list gold: Leonardo DiCaprio, Tobey Maguire, Joe Burrow, Aaron Paul—names people actually know and care about. Glen’s Smash Kitchen isn’t some pretentious, overpriced gimmick like Meghan’s “A-server” line. He’s offering non-GMO, organic essentials—think BBQ sauce and condiments—that people use daily, at prices that rival the big brands. Meanwhile, Meghan’s peddling dried flour garnishes and boxed crepe mix that no one asked for, at a cost that screams “niche luxury no one needs.” Sorry, Meghan, but your weird oil-and-herb blends with unpronounceable names aren’t winning any fans.
Glen’s marketing game is next-level too. He didn’t just slap together a PR photo op and call it a day—*Smash Kitchen* hit the ground running with real backing and is already stocked at Walmart, the store where people actually shop. Meghan? Her launch had all the vibes of a low-budget reality TV flop—no buzz, no budget, and zero star power. The best she could muster was some half-baked PR kits and a few forced smiles, likely from paid attendees. Meanwhile, Glen’s parents showed up to cheer him on, no staged family drama required—unlike Meghan, who seems to thrive on manufactured controversies instead of genuine support.
Let’s face it: Glen Powell’s launch oozes passion and practicality, delivering products people want, not a desperate bid for relevance. Meghan’s attempt? It’s a cringe-worthy lesson in how slapping your name on anything doesn’t guarantee success. Glen’s winning this round, hands down.
