Idea # one: Bad bad bad badness - celebrity blog plot



Idea # 1: This one's inspired by the recent death of The King of Pop and soccer legend Sir Bobby Robson. And it got me thinking about which celebs going to kick the bucket next and hit the headlines. It's a bit sick and slightly wrong, the perfect ingredients for a bad idea. Basically this idea is a sweep stake with a difference. It's an online game called "Celebrity tweet stakes" and it's a pretty simple thing. Actually its so simple it's easy.

Here's how it works. Send a tweet to someone on Twitter, me for example (@benferrier) with the your nominated next dead celeb and a special tag "#nextdeadceleb". You can even have some fun and tweet the celebrity too (e.g. @wossy) so they know you've picked them, which I'm sure would be nice. Also then double your fun by adding your predicted method of deadness. Here's an example tweet - "@benferrier my #nextdeadceleb is @wossy run over by a taxi." Or if your soon to be dead celeb isn't on twitter yet (meaning they are probably quite old and you are more likely to win) you can just tweet your entry with their name e.g."@benferrier my #nextdeadceleb is Jonathan Ross - tripped at tailors and broke neck."

So if your nominated #nextdeadceleb celeb goes on to die you'll win 1st prize if you can prove you were the first to tweet the next dead celeb (and if judges decide they like you) and win a booby prize if your tie breaker death method prediction is scarily accurate or particularly funny. And of course you have to promise that you won't kill any celebs deliberately just to win, it's just for fun. Only one entry per person etc. First prize is a spin in my car and the booby prize is £5. Easy. Just to be clear only celebrities that die and make it on to the BBC news or cover of Hello count - no B listers here. Ends when all the celebs are dead or when my parents adopt twitter. Whatever you do don't ask me why but go on tweet your #nextdeadceleb today.
