Celebrities are often involved with cutting-edge or trendsetting movements across a variety of industries, from fashion to investments. NFTs and cryptocurrency are currently among the buzziest investments, so it’s no surprise that many celebrities have gotten involved.
Here are some of the most popular celebrities who have invested in NFTs:
PARIS HILTON
Paris Hilton has been making NFTs since 2019. Like many NFTs on this list, her first NFT from 2019 was dedicated to charity. Her latest is a collaboration with Superplastic featuring the character DAYZEE, a leather pants laden internet celebrity who engages in all types of no-good, somewhat reminiscent of early ‘00s Paris. Hilton also recently participated in RTFKT’s Nike Air Force 1 NFT project.
KATE MOSS
Kate Moss’ triptych of NFTs entitled “Episode 1: Kate Moss” shows her going about her day to day activities — driving, lying in bed, and walking, for instance. Each exclusive piece is also accompanied by an audio recording of Moss that acknowledges the buyer.
BELLA HADID
Bella Hadid launched CY-B3LLA, a series of 11,111 NFTs that are based on 3D scans of the supermodel’s face and body. As yet unreleased, the series was supposedly inspired by Hadid’s obsession with video games that burgeoned during COVID lockdown. Each CY-B3LLA will be inspired by one of 10 different countries in which that particular NFT was designed.
ASAP ROCKY
ASAP Rocky released a collection of seven NFTs, “RICKY GATEWAY,” on Nifty Gateway. The collection includes 3D figures of him, exclusive snippets of then unreleased songs, and three literal rally cars from his 2019 “Injured Generation” tour.
DOLLY PARTON
Dolly Parton is looking to change that with her entry into the metaverse. The Dollyverse, as she’s deemed it, is an “audience-centric” Web3 experience in which fans of Parton will be able to buy web exclusive content, like her album Run, Rose, Run, and other Parton-focused NFT artworks.
SNOOP DOGG
From forming his own DAO to creating his own metaverse, the Snoopverse — in Sandbox, Snoop has taken an unofficial leadership role in the blockchain. This spring, he collaborated with Clay Nation to release an NFT on Cardano, which featured 10,000 digital figures that were algorithmically constructed to feature handcrafted clay attributes.
