If you happen to bump into singer and reality TV personality Ray J, there’s a good chance that his laptop will be somewhere in the vicinity. Is his connection to his MacBook Pro really that deep where he can’t be without it? No, not really. Ray J just understands the true power that his computer yields. With it, he can type in a simple phrase that instantly gives him access to thousands of fans. That phrase? www.Ustream.com. According to Ray J, it’s a social networking tool that every celebrity should familiarize themselves with.
“I think that Ustream is very important for all celebrities,” he shares, while monitoring his own personal Ustream account. “Fans give us so much, and all they want is a little access to know what we’re up to. To me, it’s the least that I could do to spend time each day talking to the people who made me who I am. I wouldn’t be anything if it weren’t for my fans, so I owe them this. Some celebrities lose sight of how important the fans are to their success. Not me though, and if you want to find me, I’ll be on Ustream.”
So how do you feel about Ray J’s stance on Ustream? Do you agree that celebrities owe it to their fans to give them unfiltered access to their lives? Or should their private lives be reserved for them? Let us know your thoughts. –dewayne rogers
