People are hiring celebrities to quit their job for them

Christopher Gonzalez recruited American Idol contestant William Hung to tell his coworkers and management that he was quitting his job as a motion graphics designer for television and cinema. According to The Wall Street Journal, the 35-year-old uploaded a video starring Hung onto a corporate Slack channel.

“Hello everyone,” Hung says in the video, “Christopher is going to give notice to leave the current job for a new job in two weeks.” He got a new position.

The American Idol competitor concluded, “He’ll miss all of you but you are all amazing so don’t give up creating the life you want,” before starting to sing.

The video resignation was made via the Cameo app, which lets customers hire famous people to make custom video messages. Each video’s pricing may be customized by the celebs on the app, and it can range from $1 to as much as $2,000.

Gonzalez is just one of thousands of Americans who have hired unremarkable celebrities to deliver news about them, whether it be good or terrible. He claims it was the best $30 he has ever spent, and the movie made his boss and coworkers laugh a lot.

I simply thought that would be such a strange, out-of-the-ordinary way to leave a job,” he remarked.

On Cameo, a number of lesser celebrities and TV personalities have listed their services, including the musician Kenny G, the Shark Tank investor Kevin O’Leary, the actor Brian Cox, the singer LeAnn Rimes, and others.

According to the WSJ investigation, the portal has received more than 1,000 requests in the last three years with instructions that included quitting a job. Nearly 5,000 Cameo requests had “divorce” in the instructions, while over 5,500 requests had “sorry” or “apology” in them.

According to cameo celebrities who contacted with the Wall Street Journal, they have been invited to deliver messages ranging from breakups to divorce declarations. A customer asked Klaudia Fior, a TikTok star and 25-year-old television presenter, to send a message to a friend with whom he had a falling out. The fact that this message is from you might help to break the ice! He’ll adore it, the person predicted.

Stand-up comedian Jaron Myers, 29, says he has been approached to create multiple breakup videos. He recalls the first time he was asked to do so by a woman who had lost interest in the man she was seeing.

I sincerely hope that no one is breaking up with someone they’ve been seeing for at least ten years using content creators, said Myers. But if they are, I suppose my Cameos are less expensive than therapy.
