Are you wondering which celebrity will join Steemit next? I spent some time wondering about this, especially after Paris Hilton tweeted about Bitcoin a week ago.
It's ok to dream, isn't it? Sometimes dreaming has resulted in amazing results, and today seems like a perfectly good day to dream on Steemit.
This seems like an obvious choice because of her recent tweets about Bitcoin and cryptocurrency. But Paris is a huge star and I can't see her doing anything that doesn't fall in line with her businesses. I have to admit, I was ignorant about the Paris Hilton of today. If you've noticed, she's mostly out of the limelight, and doesn't appear much in mainstream media anymore. From a recent interview, we learn that she's been spending the last 11 years building her empire. I was very surprised to learn that she's a workaholic, travels 300 days per year on business, and is keenly interested in the latest tech developments. If you think she's the same person who appeared in the Simple Life, you're in for a shock. Here's a recent interview of her where I learned of her business acumen and passionate interest in technology:
Well, Beyonce seems like an untouchable star. I would not put my money on her joining Steemit any time soon. Here's a recent video of her that shows her true nature:
Many of you might not be familiar with Grimes. From Wikipedia we learn that she is "a Canadian record producer, songwriter, music engineer, singer, video director and editor, and visual artist."
Grimes represents the next phase of being a self-directed, independent artist in the technological age. She's definitely a trailblazer and I think she has a distaste for middlemen. She has a large, passionate fan base and I think she's a force to be reckoned with especially moving towards the future when middlemen will have fewer and fewer musicians to control and siphon profits from.
If you've never seen her amazing music videos that she directs, here you go:
Azealia is controversial and has struggled for a respectable place in mainstream media. As an artist myself, I look for true originality over a pre-packaged consumer-friendly musician. Azealia is raw creativity, and therefore, I think she would be very welcome in Steemit. I see her as a person who wants to be free, in many different ways. She's a creative powerhouse, and very unwieldy. I think she would love the Steem ecosystem because it fits with her decentralize-all-the-things mentality. I love her rawness which you can see in this video:
Poppy is an internet creation. A quick glance at her videos doesn't give you the full scope of her persona. Poppy was created as a mirror to force us to look at mainstream dystopia-centric pop culture. Her videos are strategically disturbing, and they reflect a vapid, soulless aspect of mainstream media. She also remains a mystery, as she keeps her real identity a secret. There is probably a team of people behind the Poppy persona, and I think she would join Steemit before other celebrities, because she's a futuristic, art and computer-themed persona, aimed at reflecting a dystopia which many are not even aware of.
