In recent years the use of Blogs have become much more popular and commonly used. A blog is almost like a personal website, except with a blog it is much easier to have readers comment on your articles. Millions of people around the world are becoming frequent bloggers including many celebrities. Yes celebrities are even starting to use blogs. Such celebrities consist of Donald Trump, Jamie Oliver, John Mayer, and even Tiger Woods. These celebrities are making blogs to help bring the public into what is going on in their lives and other small stories around these icons. Theoretically, a blog post is a pretty simple way for a celebrity to get information out because they are just typing there thoughts instead of being heckled by media in a press conference. Another important aspect of blogs is that many people like to follow celebrities and what is an easier way than just clicking a button?
One of the most intriguing blogs that I will personally follow is Tiger Woods' blog. Not only am I a huge Tiger Woods fan, but I am very interested to see how he acts after his recent off the golf course scandals. In his last blog post on April 23, he expressed how grateful he was for all the fan support and he really wanted to congratulate Phil Mickelson on his Masters victory. Anyone who follows Tiger Woods knows that Mickelson is his biggest rival. After Tiger's scandal it seems like Tiger is using blogs to try to send out a positive message to the public that he has changed and is going to be a much nicer guy. This is just one interesting blog from only one celebrity. There are tons more celebrities with blogs so go check them out!
Ya know I never thought about some of this. You pointed out that blogging would be easier for celebrities. I agree because it would be a way for them to express themselves on their own terms. I wonder have you always followed blogging or are you just now having an interest in it due to these projects?
