Hi:
So I've seen threads over the years suggesting ways to get a B or C list celeb to do a tickle video. I remember one producer was even willing to take people's money and hold it until there was enough to bribe a celeb into completing one.
Using social media and technology available today, I believe we cold pull something off if, as a group, we can agree on who, and put our money where our mouth is.
First, and foremost, to get a credible celeb (let's use one of my favorites - Daisy Fuentes) to agree to be tickled for $$, it's got towards her favorite charity, not directly into her account. That way Daisy looks like a philanthropist and not a desperate has-been looking for a buck any way she can get it.
Second, we'd have to leverage a website like www.thepoint.com. Site like this allow you to start campaigns pledging money against a goal. Donors pledge online, but the transaction won't be valid until the total goal is reached. So, there is no risk associated with losing your donation.
Finally, there has to be a TMF "face". Daisy's people will want to do PR, interviews, etc. There would need to be a spokesperson for the TMF to make it "real", not a creepy fetish website that would turn off Daisy's fans. This spokesperson (I'm thinking female) would have to be charming and magnetic.
There would need to be a campaign around this - using Daisy's facebook fan page & twitter. In fact, we would need to create FB page around this campaign.
I'm an idea guy, so if someone would like to pick this up an run with it, it could be epic. IMO, we should ask her to have someone she trusts tickle her, like her husband and her best friend (why not go 2 on 1? 🙂
Thoughts?
