Even celebrities are not immune from the blogging bug. Many have their own blogs and a few even post regularly, or have someone in their entourage post on their behalf :-).
Three Tips for Celebrity Bloggers
While many celebrities have flirted with blogging, very few have seem to have done it well. Here are three tips for celebrity bloggers who want to do it well —
- Make it personal.
Your blog is not your ‘news’ page or your ‘press release’ page. Write about upcoming awards and events, but also write about your friends and family and what’s on your mind.
- Make it regular.
Even if you post only once in a month, do post regularly, so that your readers know when to return to your blog.
- Don’t make it on MySpace.
MySpace is great of sharing music, but MySpace celebrity blogs are painful to loot at and even more painful to read. Good celebrity blogs deserve their own www.celebrityname/blog domain name.
Top Eleven Celebrity Blogs
Here are top eleven celebrity blogs that have got it right —
If you noticed, this list doesn’t include blogs by celebrities like Neil Gaiman, Michael Moore, Mark Cuban or Deepak Chopra who are, well, celebrities of a different breed. Neither does it include blogs by totally obscure celebrities like Wil Wheaton. The list also doesn’t include some great celebrity blogs at Huffington Post that are more columns than personal blogs: Alec Baldwin, Jamie Lee Curtis, Bill Maher, John Cusack, David Mamet and Erica Jong.
