Get a personalized message from 5 Maine-born celebrities on Cameo

The power of the internet and social media has transformed over the years (for better or worse) people’s access to their favorite celebrities.

Where you used to only really know a famous person through their role in a movie, now you can see them in “real life” through their Instagram posts or even message them directly on X. Sometimes they might even respond.

And thanks to a platform called Cameo, you can get a personalized video from some of your favorite stars sent to you or someone you know, including some Maine-born celebrities.

What is Cameo?

According to its website, Cameo is “where you connect with your favorite stars” and receive a memorable personalized message from them.

Cameo, which launched in 2017, really took off during the pandemic, when everyone was at home, looking for positive messages, and these celebrities and stars were looking for a source of income while things were shut down, The Guardian reported.

That’s right, Cameo posts aren’t free. You have to pay for them, and E! News cites Caitlyn Jenner ($2,500 for a video), Kevin Smith ($999 for a video) and Ice-T ($600 for a video) as some of the most expensive.

Which Maine celebrities are on Cameo?

If you were hoping to find some of Maine’s most popular celebrities like Stephen King, Anna Kendrick or Patrick Dempsey, you’re unfortunately out of luck.

They’re not on the platform in 2024, but you never know, maybe in the future?

However, there are five Maine-born celebrities on Cameo if you’d like a fun mention from them.

Timothy Simons on Cameo

The most expensive of the five is actor Timothy Simons, who you may know from “Veep” and “Don’t Worry Darling.” Simons was born in Readfield, Maine. You can get a video of him for $500.
