With great power come great responsibilities! Remember that Spiderman quote? We do, but it seems that those celebs who hog the pages of the celebrity gossip sites are forgetting it. Celebrities hold sway over a million hearts. They are adorning the pages of celeb gossip publications and online portals because they have achieved something, even if it is preposterous or outrageous. Being celebrities, it naturally draws that they have influence over people. Don’t you think it’s time that they become mouthpieces for a cause and make the world a better place through the medium of entertainment news?Celebrity gossip sites and publications are popular. They reach out to millions of people all over the world. When celebrities speak for a cause, that message goes out to many of their fans through the celeb gossip sites.

They can use their power and influence to move people to act. They can urge them to support a cause with dedication and hard work. Mobilizing public opinion is not ... [more..]

Twitter is the biggest buzz on the internet now. What started off as thought and knowledge sharing in 140 characters has now become the birthplace for many celebrity gossip stories. The greatest advantage of sourcing celeb gossip stories from Twitter is that the germs of the stories lie in posts made by the celebrities. Some celebrities are tactful and careful about what they post. Most are not. They put up something which offends someone and then you have the entertainment news sector spilling over with interpretations and analyses. It gets on to such a point sometimes that the celebrity has no other option but to come out with a rebuttal to douse what has been ignited.Twitter is fast. Celebrities use that advantage. Celebrity gossip sites monitor the Twitter pages of celebrities round the clock, scourging for updates and developments. Some celebs like to post anything and everything on Twitter, which comes off as extremely silly sometimes. Celeb gossip magazines and publications follow the thread posted on rare occasions and ignore the posts on others. Entertainment news reporters generally "follow" the celebs of their interests so that their tweets are visible on their page as well. Twitter has made it possible ... [more..]

Celebrity gossip portals and publications portray relationships. In fact, relationships between celebrities and their close ones make for quality celeb gossip material. Readers, however, wonder if relationships in the tinsel town are as bitter and brittle as the entertainment news columns make them out to be. That's a riddle that keeps gnawing at the reader's mind, making them curious about the life that these celebs are leading. The element of curiosity is the driving force of this entire paparazzi onslaught.The question here is, though these celebrities are youth icons for millions of fans, would you depend on them for advice on relationships?

Entertainment sites follow their lawsuits and libels with almost personal interest in the proceedings. That interest is primarily for the sake of the readers.The primary interest in celebrity gossip is fuelled by the reader's desire to know how bonds develop between the rich and the famous. There is an air of majestic pleasure ... [more..]

Celebrities live a charmed life, or so we think. We read about their luxurious lifestyles in the celebrity gossip magazines. We look at their attractive partners, their sparkling jewelry and their posh houses. Many celeb gossip readers fancy living such a life in the lap of luxury. But do we think how they are missing out on the little things in life that make live livable? I mean, no celebrity can go out and hang around with friends when he becomes the darling of entertainment news columns. His private life practically ends there. He’s then just a normal person trying to trick the paparazzi and protect whatever he can of his privacy.There are two questions here. Do the celebrities really want the celebrity gossip sites to talk about every little aspect of their life? The answer is a yes and a no. They want the celeb gossip sites and other publications to talk about them because that gives them publicity and visibility. Being splashed all over tabloids and entertainment news portals have a strong impression on the celebrity’s fan following. When the tabloids and magazines talk about them at length, the celebrity knows that he is interesting enough and popular ... [more..]

Celebrity gossip is not always something that yellow journalist hunt out. There are times when the celeb gossip updates are provided to the entertainment sites by the celebrities themselves. There is an increased tendency among attention-stared celebrities to take center-stage by getting hold of the limelight and placing it firmly upon themselves. Planting updates to the sources tapped by the paparazzi is a practice that is not entirely new, but that is definitely getting redefined. Celebrities know that they can be in the news for only a designated period of time and that time span is very short. They have to make a continued, sustained effect to keep themselves in the news.Planting celebrity gossip stories in newspapers and tabloids happened in the days of yore as well. You had jealous celebrities blowing the lid off scandals by calling celeb gossip publications. The motive for this was entirely professional jealousy or just rage at being dumped, rejected or slighted. All that changed with the coming of modern entertainment news. Because these portals are extremely popular with the masses, celebrities feel the need to reach out and connect with them. It's obvious that they cannot do that overtly. The only way they ... [more..]
