Expert Tips: How to Fake Being Famous

Expert Tips: How To Fake Being Famous

Friday, 12 September 2008

Sweetspot`s Editor, Stephania Varalli, has been gallivanting about town for all of TIFF. And while she may only be F-List (Filler at parties), she’s seen how the real celebrities role.

See how many paparazzi bulbs you can get flashing using these simple tools:

Get a car service:
Famous people don’t drive themselves, nor do they hail cabs. This week the stars where chauffeured around in Cadillac Escalades. With tinted windows, of course. Kelly Carlson certainly enjoyed the sweet ride when she left the It Lounge (there was plenty of room for swag).

Get your makeup professionally done:
Even if you have some talent with a brush, you’ll never look quite as good as when a makeup artist applies their magic touch. Have a look at what an improvement DIOR made to our Editor! (Before image an approximate likeness after one week of not sleeping. After image courtesy of James Lourenco.)

Find a plus-one buddy:
Even if you aren’t invited to the parties, you probably know one person who is. And if you want the coveted plus one, start your sucking up early. Sending a “Hey, remember me, take me to a TIFF soiree!” email probably won’t put you at the top of their call list. And always be available.
