T-shirt a cause... or a non-cause...

I don't know who is more insane -- celebrities or fans like you and me?

Custom t-shirts can be a great way to show your fandom for your favourite celebrities, but sometimes custom t-shirts and celebrities just don't go together well. I have to admit, although usually I'm completely against all things paparazzi-esque, I happen to think that these celebrity t-shirts are pretty darned funny.

I thought in the spirit of a good laugh that we would look back over some of the celebrity t-shirts and t-shirt campaigns that have been launched over the years. Let this be a lesson to you that custom t-shirts really can make a difference in swaying people's opinions.

#1 - Britney Spears - Oh my is this poor girl ever horribly ridiculed in the eyes of the media. Not only are her pictures spewed across every tabloid and magazine in the world, she also has celebrity t-shirts being sold about her. This one [above] was one of the more tasteful I found.

#2 -Jennifer Aniston vs. Angelina Jolie - The prize? Brad Pitt. Originally married to Aniston and now frollicking and playing dad with Jolie, Brad's actions have literally divided fans into two different "teams". I think these custom t-shirts are absolutely hilarious, especially in this picture as the girl on the left is none other than Paris Hilton. A celebrity t-shirts campaign that was so popular, even other celebrities were buying into it!

#3 - Katie Holmes - Poor little Katie. She marries the man she loves, but because he turned out to be slightly on the unstable side these celebrity t-shirts hit the streets. The "Free Katie" t-shirt campaign made me snicker a little as it also had a detailed website and a whole collection of passionate Dawson Creek fans who were trying to Free Katie from the evil Tom Cruise. Were they right? Who cares? It was a fun t-shirt campaign and that's really all that matters.

Custom t-shirts can be more than merely a fun way to get your art from your mind to a vast audience... the above people were making t-shirts based on fairly silly concepts and made a ton of money doing it. People love something that is fun and different and... everyone loves a cause.

Get involved, get unique and make a splash!
Until next time,

Katie
