I have created an Attribute, call MyAttribute, which is performing some security and for some reason the Constructor is not being fired, any reason why?

public class Driver
{
    // Entry point of the program
    public static void Main(string[] Args)
    {
        Console.WriteLine(SayHello1("Hello to Me 1"));
        Console.WriteLine(SayHello2("Hello to Me 2"));

        Console.ReadLine();
    }

    [MyAttribute("hello")]
    public static string SayHello1(string str)
    {
        return str;
    }

    [MyAttribute("Wrong Key, should fail")]
    public static string SayHello2(string str)
    {
        return str;
    }


}

[AttributeUsage(AttributeTargets.Method)]
public class MyAttribute : Attribute
{

    public MyAttribute(string VRegKey)
    {
        if (VRegKey == "hello")
        {
            Console.WriteLine("Aha! You're Registered");
        }
        else
        {
            throw new Exception("Oho! You're not Registered");
        };
    }
}
