Celebrities Find Time To Blog by amit

Sprint has announced Blogstar, a wireless blogging platform built exclusively so celebrities could voice their day-to-day lives to the world. Now stars will be able to beat the tabloids and paparazzi to the punch as they upload pics, stories and soon video to their sites thus also ending the need for gossip blogs. Blogstar launches in the midst of falling sales of cell phone ringtones and wallpapers and the rising popularity of MySpace (and the MySpace Top 8’s). Of course there’s a caveat. The service is subscription based and will cost $5/month for curious web surfers to read about their favorite famous “friends.” According to Reuters, “subscribers receive alerts when new posts are uploaded.” Natalie, age nineteen and unimpressed by BlogStar, told C&V, “I don’t want those moth*r fu*king alerts interrupting my shout outs to KiKi and my convos with my boo, Rayonelle.” Allison, 16, on a website by Wilmer Valderrama added, “[she]‘d rather pour battery acid in [her] eyes and eat rusty nails with cold gravy than read his blog.” Despite our market research (two sassy teens), many celebrity sites are going up as we speak and good, bad, or ugly, we wanted to know who’s blogging. So, living up to our highly motivated and somtimes illegal journalistic search for knowledge, C&V hounded Sprint for 3 days till they finally coughed up an exclusive run-down of the top celebrity blog URLs. Be sure to bookmark ‘em all.
