Attention-whore comes to mind. It's used very often, in literature even. Money-whore is on a par with it. It's lending oneself to silly or maybe even unsavory practices to get what one wants. How that's offensive to you I simply do not grasp. How it is so unphatomable to you to see the word used in context with MF's practices over the years, I also do not grasp.
Be that as it may, I also have a strong sense of deja vu, I wrote a post to this effect days ago-- or was it weeks, life flies by, and am not sure why we are revisiting this old debate.
If the word whore offends you I am not surprised you are on this forum with us and not elsewhere on the interwebs, as this place is very tame and polite compared to it!
Just wish you'd let us be more though. Please? With a cherry on top? Go to the Stevie and mick and finn forums?
