Celebrities — Chelsea Clinton or Kim Kardashian — are paid what the market will bear

Talons drawn, the media have descended upon Chelsea Clinton. Again.
Not for her frizzy hair, now smoothed with a killer blowout, or for that preteen metal mouth, now braces-free and pearly white.

This time the attacks are over how much money she makes — for her network television fluff pieces and well-attended gigs on the lecture circuit — despite her stick-thin résumé.

As tech moves beyond nerd turf, celebrities take note

The tech and entertainment industries have long had a close relationship

Nude Magazine Covers: Not Just for Celebrities

Comparing your own body to a naked celebrity on a magazine cover can make you depressed enough to run straight to the fridge to eat a full pint of ice cream. (It did to me, just now.)

Does Celebrity Sponsorship Really Work?

As social media and the real-time news cycle fostered by online media have given rise to a celebrity culture more pervasive than ever before, the lure of celebrity ambassadors has become even more fraught with potential success and peril. Celebrity misbehavior and high-profile mismatches have led many to declare sponsorship as either too risky for the rewards or ineffectual as a whole. However, in some industries, particularly the world of nonprofits, recent research has shown an uptick in the validity of celebrity voices supporting a cause. For example, a recent study conducted in the United States by Harris, a Nielsen Company, found that more than half of Americans (53 percent) believe celebrities can help make a difference by lending their support to a cause.

Experts are vastly divided about whether the ultimate gains of having a celebrity endorse your product outweigh the costs and possible pitfalls, but something everyone can agree upon is that they certainly can capture attention. The questions are whether celebrity endorsement is right for your brand or industry, how it will fit in your overall marketing plan, and how to find the best suited celebrity for your goals.
