Best Vacations For Celebrity Spotting
You only have to look at the wealth of magazines, celebrity updates and TV shows that drown us to notice that we British have an insatiable appetite for spotting anything remotely related to the famous. The popularity of shows such as ‘I’m a Celebrity’ and ‘Celebrity Big Brother’ have proven that you can never have enough exposure to the actors, musicians and TV personalities when it comes to getting a fix of fame. However, many of us will never get the opportunity to meet a celebrity in real life unless we deliberately seek out ways to bump in to them.
The good news is, by putting yourself in the way of potential celebrity hot spots, you stand a great chance of coming across some of your favourite famous people simply by being in the right place, at the right time. Here’s our pick of the top holiday destinations to provide your best possible opportunity for spying on celebrities…
