Very Vquzeshuf!

Reading a team members blog post brought me back to high school! It was a blog about a video where kids were styling a kids hair into a mullet. It reminded me of when sports teams in my high school would shave their heads or make mowhawks as a sign of school/team spirt! check out the comment i made on it!

Celebrity owned or Inspired Products

Products are everywhere! Marketing them can sometimes be difficult, but when the product is either named by a celebrity, the product is almost marketed by iteself! Not much effort needs to go into marketing a celebrity owned product. Basically a celebrity has to be called out wearing a certain thing and EVERYONE will want one. As i was browsing the internet i found a site that rates celebrity products.

Celebrity owned or Inspired products!

You should check it out and see if your favorite celebrity product is being rated well or even rate your favorite celebrity products!!

What's in a Name? VQUZESHUF

So as I was browsing the internet I found a very interesting article called “What’s in a Name?” by Susan Craig. It talks about products and celebrity marketing.

What's in a Name? VQUZESHUF

“Celebrity products are nothing new. High profile celeb names are on everything from perfume to clothing to motor oil to shoes. It was only a matter of time before they’d discover food, especially the hot stuff. Salsas and hot sauces are now marketed under the names of comics and movie stars (sometimes one and the same) and sports stars. While celebrity marketing can be a gimmick for a quick buck, the folks whose pictures are on many hot food products are taking the whole business quite seriously. They know what they like, their personal taste stamps the product, and they’re out there telling everybody about it. Perhaps your favorite superstar will be next.

How does this happen? Do these people hide out in their kitchens, stirring up the old family recipes? Do food producers look around for a celebrity to match up with their product? Or is it the marketers who create these matches made in heaven?

The answers: yes, yes, and yes.”

The excerpt above is taken directly from the article. I feel that this is how products become a celebrity. The more the celebrity is used to market it, the more it becomes their own product. This was probably one of the smartest decisions ever made to do in marketing because everyone will fall in love with a product watching their favorite celebrity marketing it!

More kids for the Beckhams?



The Beckhams have been married for 9 years and have three children: Brooklyn, 8, Romero, 5, and Cruz, 3.

In an interview on the Ellen Degeneres show, David Beckham said “we’re working on it”.

Working on what? Well the Beckham’s are ready to expand their family.

Previous to this interview, Victoria, had mentioned that she wanted to get pregnant again once the spice girl tore was over.

"We're very family oriented," David said. "We always wanted a big family, which was weird because when we first got together we never even discussed how many children we wanted."

David Beckham then said, "It's worked out that we want a big family and we love kids so it's worked out perfect."

So exactly when will another Beckham be in the spotlight?

For example, Paris Hilton came out with her own perfume. You can buy this product anywhere online and also in many department stores. If you type "Paris Hilton Perfume" into google, thousands of links come up in which most of them are selling the product. This gets her name out there and also makes it simple for consumers to purchase this product. Below is a link to all the different Paris Hilton perfumes Macy's carrys.

Heidi & Spencers New Ring!


Last season on The Hills, Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt got engaged. Dealing with all the wedding planning issues they started to fight a lot. Soon enough Heidi called off the wedding. I thought this would be the end of their relationship, but soon enough they were back to dating. I definitely thought that they would wait at least a year before getting engaged again considering everything they went through.


In February 4th's issue of US weekly, one of the first articles was about Heidi Montag's new ring. On January 16th, they were both spotted looking at new rings a jewelry store in West Hollywood. Instead of receiving her old engagement ring she received a 2-carat diamond ring that cost $27,000, which is more than Spencer could afford. They ended up taking out a loan to buy it.

What do you guys think...Do you think it is too soon for Heidi and Spencer to be thinking about a wedding again?

Jamie Lynn Spears


Hey guys,

So this past weekend I was in CVS and Star magazine caught my eye. The front cover said “Pregnant Jamie Lynn Giving Up Her Baby”, I just had to get it to see what this was all about. At first I was thinking, how could she give her baby away? I mean I understand that she is young but I thought she would at least keep it because her mother would always be there for her and help her take care of it.

Later that night I sat down to read the magazine. The first sentence in the article was “Jamie Lynn Spears has quietly agreed to give up the baby girl she’s carrying and let her mother, Lynne, raise the child.” Later in the article it said that Jamie Lynn was doing this so she could work on her career as an actress and singer and also still have her life as a teenager. She also said that she would not be giving her mother total control but enough to allow her to live her life.
I think that this is a very smart decision for Jamie Lynn. She is so young and was just starting to become more popular with her acting and singing career. By allowing her mom to take the front seat and care for her child, Jamie Lynn will be able to become more successful and therefore also support her child.

What do you guys think of Jamie Lynn’s decision? Do you think it’s for the better or not?

Heath Ledger's Death


As most of us all know Heath Ledger died January 22, 2008. I find this absolutly crazy and upseting. He was such a young and wonderful actor who was nominated for an academy award.

Us Weekly claims that he was an abuser of alcohol and drugs such as heroin, cocaine, and pills. It was also said that this all started once he and the actress Michelle Williams broke up.

Also in Us Weekly it was said that Michelle Williams tried to get him help but refused to go to rehab and beause of this she rufused to let him see their daughter matilda unless he got drug tested!

Although Ledger has been identified as a drug user, I do not believe that drugs were the actual cause of his death. I believe that he was simply over-tired from his redeye flight and was looking to catch some good sleep. The sleeping pills must not have mixed well with his body chemistry.

Does anyone else (other than Michelle Williams according to Perez Hilton's website) agree with my speculation on Ledgers cause of death? Or do you think that it was because he was administering drugs?
