For most of our lives, the only way to get a personalized message from a celebrity was to get them on the phone or literally meet them in person. In the last few years, Cameo has changed that. For those unaware, Cameo is a website where people can purchase personalized videos where celebrities wish them (or loved ones) happy birthday, good luck on a job interview, or literally anything else they’re willing to say. All you need to do is pay their fee (it ranges from as low as $20 or so to hundreds and thousands depending on the celebrity) and they’ll make you a 30-second (or more) video specifically made for you. While the celebrities included run the gamut from D-list to Oscar winners, the newest addition is really turning heads. That’s because thanks to the folks at Coca-Cola, Santa Claus is on Cameo.
You know, the Santa from the Coke can, right? Well, apparently that’s the real Santa. That’s why the famed soda brand partnered with Cameo for a chance to get a personalized video from the red-suited guy. You better hurry though because you only have until November 16 to enter at Coke.com/holiday-hub to get a chance to receive a personalized video from Mr. Claus.
But, since Santa is only doing a few Cameos, there’s a pretty good chance you won’t get one this year. Well, regardless of whether you’re on the naughty or nice list, there are myriad other celebrities on Cameo well-suited for holiday good tidings and gifting this year. Check out some of our favorites below.
