Fame or Shame.

She's my daughter, I'll handle it.
— Michael
Judging by past behavior, and the state of the rest of your family, fuck only knows what that means.
— Trevor

Fame or Shame is a mission in Grand Theft Auto V for protagonist Michael De Santa with the help of Trevor Philips.

Description

At the De Santa family residence, Michael is arguing with Amanda about Michael's emotional distance from the family and his change in behavior. Then Jimmy appears, and also argues with Michael about his behavior. Suddenly, Trevor Philips shows up at the house, greeting everyone and specially his best friend Michael, who is shocked by Trevor's arrival; Michael was convinced that Trevor was dead.

Trevor soon notices that Tracey is not in the house. Jimmy says she is auditioning for the Fame or Shame talent show. Michael and Trevor drive to the Maze Bank Arena, where they find Lazlow Jones about to present Tracey to the show's three judges. Tracey begins her performance and Lazlow joins in, dancing erotically with Michael's daughter. Michael and Trevor are both furious and break up the audition. Lazlow flees the arena with Michael and Trevor in pursuit.

Michael and Trevor emerge to find their car towed away, so they hijack a tractor trailer to chase Lazlow who attempts to escape in his red Dilettante. Michael and Trevor follow Lazlow through Los Santos, eventually cornering him when his car's battery runs out in the Los Santos Storm Drain. Trevor forces Lazlow to dance without his pants on and warns him not to touch Tracey again. Lazlow agrees and runs away.

Mission objectives

Gold Medal Objectives

  • Fastest Speed - Reach top speed in the Phantom. 
  • Bearing Down - Stay close to Lazlow throughout the chase.
  • No, I Can Park Here - Knock out the event Coordinator.
  • All Hooked Up - Don't unhook the trailer.

Aftermath

Daily Globe Newspaper

"Panic turned to chaos to bedlam as an argument broke out between outspoken Fame or Shame host Lazlow and the relative of a contestant who was auditioning. It is believed the fight began when the father of a contestant objected to his daughter's appearance on the show and chased the host from the scene. Onlookers were traumatized. This is further worry for Fame or Shame, which has been dipping in the ratings recently."
