so that being said, when do we bloggers get to have sponsored meetups with the Viva Hot Babes? That’s as high a stage as it’ll ever get, he he!

I am not really sure that this is the 100% applicable to blogging. And the main reason being blogging at the onset is not necessarily a past time or a hobby. So you get people who blog as a hobby or a cause and those that enter it as a business.

There is no ifs and when. Blogging as an industry is now and here. Blogging is maintstream. And like any industry celebrities and icons are created from within.

Between 4 and 5. Mainstream media has tackled blogging (e.g., Mel and Jay interviewing Abe and J. Angelo; Korina’s “Beware of the Blog”). There are a few celebrities blogging (e.g., Bianca Gonzales) but so far, no top-billing stars, much less those that are active into the so-called local blogging community. (Kris Aquino supposedly had an LJ before.)

Note that for stage 5 to become legitimate, celebrities have to be part of the “blogging community” (e.g., attend iBlog or other big blogging events). Otherwise, a celebrity blog is just an official celebrity website with (e.g., KC Concepcion’s blog).
