Attention Whore / Web Original

• Being inspired by Daffy Duck, The Nostalgia Critic is like this at times, as are the rest of his Channel Awesome co-stars.
• Internet Trolls.
• On Agents of Cracked at Cracked.com, Swaim's character is so frustrated that Dan is getting more attention than him that he threatens to bomb the White House. Watch it here
• Shannon from Echo Chamber.
  "Can you believe him? I can't believe Tom is still doing his stupid little show with that... fat boy and that... ugly chick! Just thinking about it makes me wanna barf! Tom, why aren't you spending that time with me?"
• The "Annoying Facebook Girl" meme takes this quite literally, and is often used to make fun of people who post attention whore comments on Facebook, among other things.
• More than one hot teenager at Superhero School Whateley Academy in the Whateley Universe. Solange goes out of her way to be the queen bee and mistreat the people around her, even so far as to use psychic powers to make herself seem even more all that. Attributes might have the biggest boobs on a campus where the Most Common Superpower is in play, and she dresses to show her assets; she even named herself Attributes!
• Daffy Duck, as portrayed on Golden Book Video Killers, still acts the same as he was in the original Looney Tunes shorts, though slightly downplayed.
• The Not Always Right post, "I Am (Not) Sick Of All The Attention" has one who has a habit of projecting her attention issues onto her friend.
• Vinny of Vinesauce is so familiar with these that he wrote a song about them in Tomodachi Life.
• The Cry of Mann: Sam was so obsessed with himself that he became angry when Becca and Rebecca received praise instead of him, and made memorial videos for deceased characters that had more pictures of his living mail-man character than the actual character that had died.
• Inanimate Insanity: Spoiled Lemon's lead singer, Starfruit, according to Microphone.
  Microphone: He was an attention hog anyway...
• Oxventure:
  • In their Dungeons & Dragons campaign, Corazón de Leon/de Ballena has been described by his own player as a "showboat-y idiot". Early in the campaign, while in hiding from his vengeful crew, he gives his full name to a town crier talking about their most recent exploits. He learns nothing from this; at one point, thirty episodes later, Johnny, the GM, sets up a chance for Dob to perform on stage and end up framed for a lot of crime for a Courtroom Episode, and hastily adjusts their plans with an extra frame-up when Corazón decides that he absolutely has to also be up there on stage. (After all, no GM worth their salt would look that gift horse in the mouth.)
  • Also in the Oxventure, one-off character Lynton, who tricked his way into becoming King of Dunbridge and will not, ever, ever, let you forget how important he is now that he's king of a small village, to the point of having plaques put up talking about The Ascension of King Lynton of Dunbridge that use that phrase multiple times in a sentence. It's so overt that it even prompts Corazón to have a rare moment of self-awareness.
    Corazón: The way this Lynton is talking sounds a lot like what I would do, so I want to check this plinth for some sort of mechanical -
    Prudence: "I just want to check it's not me."
• Manga Soprano: Erika was so obsessed with standing out that she wore a white dress at her sister Kanade's wedding. This earns her the disgust of the guests and the scolding of their parents for trying to overshadow Kanade in the best day of her life. Of course she shrugs them off until her fiancé Casino showed up and dumped her for wearing a white dress in someone else's wedding.
• Revenge Films: Friend A wore a white wedding dress to the FMC's wedding to flaunt her beauty to make her jealous. This earned her the understandable ire of the guests for such a faux pas, but she shrugs them off until her boss shows up, forcing her to change her clothes.
