Survey for homework - (appreciate any answers)

[spellbound]

Hi guys,
I have been set an assignment on the celebrity market of merchandise and thought it a good idea to do some background research, so who better to ask then my fellow celebrity fanatics who are always willing to help.

Basically if you could tell me your top 3 favourite celebrities in order of how much you like them, the maximum amount you would spend on an item to do with them and what it would be, also do you ever think of gifts to do with celebrities for peolples birthdays, eg would you buy a pen saying born to be mrs dan radcliffe for a dan fan?

Any answers very much apprecaited, thanks in advance !!

1.) Pete Doherty - up to £20.

2.) Bob Marley - up to £10.

3.) Prince William - up to £15.

I wouldn't buy anyone I know a celebrity-related gift, because they'd prefer something more useful or meaningful - something that has versatility and longevity.

Paramore (a band) - £10
Billie Joe Armstrong - £10-20
The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus - £5 - £15

[margotchanning]

1) Bette Davis - as much money I could afford.

2) Karen Carpenter - as above

3) David Caruso - about £20/£30

I often buy celebrity related gifts for my friends. I bought my friend Richard a Metallica song book for Christmas & I got my friend Emma a Cristiano Ronaldo poster a few weeks ago. {thumb2}

1.) Gerard Butler - up to £40 (I know I'm sad! {thumb2} ) on decent memorabilia from his films.

2.) Viggo Mortensen - up to £30 - same as above.

3.) Reese Witherspoon - up to £30 - autograph and memorabilia.

I have bought my friend a David Beckham poster because she is a DB fan! But usually, I wouldn't.

Good luck with your homework! {thumb2}

HELLO!

1. MALCOLM MCDOWELL: US$30 (ANYTHING)

2. THE BEATLES: US$30 (ANYTHING)

3. QUEEN: US$30 (ANYTHING)

I AM A COLLEGE STUDENT AND I DON'T HAVE MUCH MONEY, BUT WHEN I GRADUATE AND I WILL FIND A JOB, EASILY I COULD SPEND MUCH MONEY THAN THAT.

I THINK THAT IS A WONDERFUL IDEA TO GIFT CELEBRITY PRESENTS TO FRIENDS WHO LIKES A CELEB, BECAUSE FOR THEM IS HIGHLY APPRECIATED. I THINK IS BETTER, BECAUSE YOU COULD GIFT SOMETHING THAT THEY DON'T LIKE OR THEY THINK IS BORED. I HAVE MY OWN EXPERIENCE, AND FOR MY BIRTHDAYS OR XMAS, THE PEOPLE USUALLY HAVE BEEN GIVEN BORED THINGS.

For other celebrity fanatics i would yeah. For instance, Osiris on here, nutter for David Tennant.

So, David Tennant : £15ish
Erm... not sure on anyone else really. Thats a toughy! But yes, i would buy, and probably spend a fair amount, but i'm pedantic over useage and tacky stuff, so it would have to be like fancied up prints from a movie, or Doctor Who name brand glasses from David Tennant, or something like that.
