Famous People And Popular Celebrities On Photographs

Celebrities have been flocking to social networking and video hosting sites such as Youtube, Twitter, Facebook, and MySpace. Social networking sites allow celebrities to communicate directly with their fans, removing the middle-man known as traditional media. Social media humanizes celebrities in a way that arouses public fascination as evident by the success of magazines such as Us Weekly and People Weekly. Social media sites have even catapulted some to fame. Tila Tequila for example, shot to stardom on MySpace.
Legal implications
Celebrities have many unique legal issues, of which the most important arise from personality rights. Personality rights is a common or casual reference to the proper term of art "Right of Publicity". The Right of Publicity can be defined simply as the right of an individual to control the commercial use of his or her name, image, likeness or other unequivocal aspects of one's identity. California has an extraordinary concentration of celebrities in and around Los Angeles (particularly Hollywood), an important center of American culture. The California Legislature has thus enacted a number of laws to deal with celebrities' legal problems, such as the California Celebrities Rights Act. Many U.S.-based celebrities choose to file for divorce in California courts (even when they were married elsewhere) as California judges are experienced in handling celebrity divorces.
