FAQs

Reach out to the celebrity.. You can contact a member of their team, like their manager, agent, publicist, etc. For a more direct approach, you can try messaging the celebrity on social media or sending them an email. If you haven't interviewed a lot of celebrities or a lot of big celebrities, start small.
A good sequence of starting questions is: What first inspired you in this work? What challenges you in this work? What keeps you going in this work? What do you hope can happen for us in this work?
Be direct, ask for an interview. Remind them of your qualifications and then ask when is a good time to come in and discuss the open position further. Lastly, make sure to be friendly and polite when saying goodbye to the person you are calling. It's important to show appreciation for their time.
Compose a concise, well-written email explaining your purpose. Introduce yourself and state the reason for contacting them. Respect their time and acknowledge their busy schedule.
Casually approach them and say “Hi.” Try to stay composed. Don't panic or start screaming if they wave or smile back. Simply casually walk up to them and introduce yourself. Say hi, and let them know that you're a fan of their work.
