Of Blogging Celebrities and Celebrity Bloggers

Celebrity blogs seem to be the flavour of the season. At a time when bloggers are turning celebrities, the celebrities want to claim their share of the Blogosphere. The latest to join the bandwagon is property tycoon and billionaire Donald Trump. I want to ask him about how his perfume is faring and would also like to know whether he is recruiting any apprentices for the Trump Blog.

Is there a way to detect whether these celebrity blogs are genuine? I hope they are not making a fool of us by asking their PR folks to manage these blogs.

  • It is probably run by their PR - give an idea and ask them to churn out something just like how speeches are written.

  • dude "you are fired" :)

    Many of these blogs are maintained by the pr / marketing folks.
    Trumps blog is tied to his Trump University.

  • oh in fact, I often wonder what prevents some joker from starting a blog and writing under a celebrity's name...

  • @Visithra,
    I don't think a billionaire like Trump would be interested in running a blog

    @Jayan,
    yeah....he must be a really busy and and he wud prefer to concentrate on things that help in furthering his wealth

    @Venky,
    somebody must be running the blog for him

    @Charu,
    are u saying that it could be Blogsquatting (something like CyberSquatting). it happened in the case of Sania Mirza....but the blog seems to have vanished now.
