In the addictive age of the Internet, it is not at all surprising that blogs have become the lifeline of many stars. Amitabh Bachchan regularly updates his blog with a frequency that would seem unexpected for such a senior actor. In fact, even when he was unwell and hospitalised, he had posted reports from his bed there.
These starry blogs have also seen the start of some celebrity friendships and even spats as witnessed in the case of Aamir Khan, who posted some comments on his blog a while ago on Amitabh Bachchan and Shah Rukh Khan. While Bachchan hit back blog to blog, SRK chose to ignore the remarks. But when things heated up too much, it was paradoxically the world of blogs that came to the stars aid to result in a patch up.
Wanting her slice of the blog pie is actor Shilpa Shetty. She will soon be making her voice heard through her own blog, which will be tentatively called the Shilpa Channel.
Television viewers and her aficionados who had eagerly followed the television show, Bigg Boss, would remember that Shetty’s (who played the hostess of the show) appearance on TV was playfully called the Shilpa Channel by the actor herself.
When contacted, Shilpa confirms the news. She says, “I will be starting my blog in a day or two on my official website - It will be good stuff. You will be proud of me.”
So, what should we expect? Hopefully, no sermons about the citys spirit and how it can get back on to its feet after the recent traumatic attacks. Let the politicians and their ilk do that. We would love to get some free fitness and yoga tips from the girl, who still flaunts one of the best hot bods in the industry. Is Shilpa listening?
