BUY GEORGE Singer asks £350 to film personal message for you

- By Vikki White

BOY George is charging adoring fans £350 for a personalis­ed video message.

For that, the Culture Club singer, 57, will wish your loved one happy birthday, invite someone special to an event or announce big news to your pals.

And George is not the only celeb cashing in on new “shout out” site Cameo.

Its line-up includes sports stars such as basketball legend Dennis Rodman, who charges a slam dunk £750 per message, whereas rugby bad boy Danny Cipriani might be worth a try at a more affordable £75. Bargains to be had include messages from US actress Mischa Barton, 32, who had a bit part in Notting Hill. She will record a video for just £19. And and glamour model Lucy Pinder, 34, is available for £23. Some of the stars are donating the proceeds FORMER Spice Girl Victoria Beckham goes from va-va-gloom in a frumpy skirt and oversize shirt to va-va-boom with two super stylish outfits.

The singer-turned-fashion designer, 44, swapped her monochrome outfit for a sheer blue top and red flared trousers as she attended the Dior show during Paris Fashion Week.

And she opted for a chic beige suit and ruby red top when she explored the city of love later on. Three outfits in one day – the only thing that didn’t change was her expression... to charity, including West End actress Carrie Hope Fletcher, sister of Mcfly’s Tom, who will send a filmed message for £19, with proceeds going to Papyrus, a charity for the prevention of young suicides. Cameo boasts more than 2,000 VIPS, including Youtubers and reality TV stars. It has sold more than 37,000 personalis­ed videos in just 12 months.

But its stars are not the first to charge fans big bucks for a personal memento.

Last year, it was revealed John Cleese was charging fans £135 for a photo, autograph and chat at a film convention.

And two years ago, a top ticket for Justin Bieber’s world tour plus a selfie cost his admirers £2,000. Perhaps the cheapest was Towie’s Gemma Collins,who allegedly charged a young fan £12 for a photo at her salon before heading into

Celebrity Big Brother in 2016.
