It is known that celebrity fees are very impressive amounts, but many of the stars who have achieved success understand that their popularity does not last forever. Then the artists begin to engage in business with enthusiasm, trying to secure additional sources of income for themselves. Some people manage to build quite profitable enterprises, the products of which are successful. But sometimes, celebrity business ideas can seem pretty weird to say the least.

Morgenstern

The performer, who once started by showing funny videos, and today positions himself as a serious performer, decided to start producing toilet paper. And it seems to be nothing special, if not for the portraits of Morgenstern himself, lavishly decorating the paper. He shocked the audience with a commercial in which he himself starred on the toilet, and then announced that this business was the future, and he could well be called a "toilet emperor." By the way, toilet paper from Morgenstern is very expensive - 990 rubles per roll.

Philip Kirkorov

Along with the agency that organizes children's parties, a karaoke bar and the release of personalized perfumes, Philip Bedrosovich discovered two more lines of business. The first is the design of the wallpaper with the telling name "Music for the walls". The performer, even when he was building his country house, accepted the offer of the Russian branch of the Italian factory Zambaiti Parati and released the first collection of wallpaper in a palace style together with the designer Egidio Freddi. The singer himself claims that the wallpaper, on the design of which he worked, can attract wealth to the house. A roll of non-woven vinyl wallpaper will cost the buyer about 4,000 rubles.

But that's not all. Philip Kirkorov decided to continue the theme of his own hit "The Color of Mood - Blue" and released on the market blue eye patches to smooth out wrinkles. The pop king declares that silicones and petroleum products are not used in production, and the effect of the miracle remedy is truly magical. One pair costs about 350 rubles.

Stas Mikhailov

The favorite of millions of Russian women decided to please his fans with the release of exclusive bedding. The kits contain the words of famous songs performed by Stas Mikhailov: “Everything for you”, “London”, “Dream Shores”, “My Love” and others. According to the performer, the idea did not belong to him, but to the textile industry, he himself only supported the initiative. At the same time, the singer set two conditions: his portraits will not be printed on bed linen, and the sets themselves must be affordable so that anyone can purchase them. The cost of the set is about a thousand rubles, and a disc of the performer is included as a gift.

Nikas Safronov

The famous artist decided that it was necessary to bring art to the masses, and therefore released a series of paper napkins on which there is his portrait and reproductions of his own paintings. Nikas Safronov does not react at all to the comments of critics who assert that the paintings on the napkins are a sign of bad taste. According to the artist, the times when art was available only to high society are gone into the distant past, and now it needs to be popularized, and napkins in this case are a very good idea.

Sergey Shnurov

The performer decided to be closer to the people, so he launched the production of red and blue men's underpants, a pair of which costs about three thousand rubles. On the shorts there is only an inscription and a small emblem, which can be recognized by the outlines of Shnurov himself. A set of laces with the famous swear word of three letters can be purchased for almost 500 rubles. But the device for opening the lids with the image of the singer in the image of the savior will cost Shnurov's fans only 200 rubles.

Sergey Lazarev

The famous performer decided to create a pastry shop. The idea is not new, but the customers of the catering establishment were not people at all, but their pets. Employees of "Poodle-Strudel" make cakes for four-legged pets exclusively from good meat, and at the same time the treats look like real works of art. Such a narrow business, of course, cannot be at least somewhat profitable, but Sergey Lazarev, in this case, is not interested in profit at all. "Poodle Strudel" is an activity for the soul.

Olga Buzova

Back in 2018, the telediva presented its own cryptocurrency Buzcoin. According to Buzova, this was the beginning for the development of the global IT project Buzar, where in the future it would be possible to purchase goods and services by paying with digital money named after instadiva. True, the announcement of the launch of the project was met on the Internet with a fair amount of skepticism. The star was supported only by her fans, while the rest openly ridiculed and even called the project a fraud. In general, after a year, all developments in this direction were discontinued.

Gwyneth Paltrow

The actress managed to shock the audience by releasing candles with the scent of … her own genitals in 2020. This splendor cost $ 75 per unit, and the description was about a combination of ambergris seeds, geraniums, citrus fruits and Damask rose. The film star reported that all the candles were sold out very quickly, and Gwyneth herself later released new ones - now with the scent of the actress's orgasm.

Dakota Johnson

The actress, made famous by the movie "50 Shades of Gray", is very concerned that people do not speak openly about sex, and her dream is a world where everyone can speak openly about this burning topic. Surely, this is what became the incentive for the launch of a brand of products intended for intimate health. So far, the line is limited to organic condoms, massage oils, lubricants and sex toys.

Katie Price

The singer, famous not only for her vocal abilities, but also for numerous business projects, is constantly in search of something new. And in 2017, she announced that she was starting to release glamorous female coffins that would look chic, and they would use pink decorative coverings and numerous rhinestones as decorations. And only one element of the decor raised doubts that the coffins will be in demand, because, in addition to the shine, they will have to flaunt an imitation of a female breast, according to the idea of the singer.

Some celebrities take the expression "a talented person is talented in everything" too literally, and, deciding that a big name is enough to make a profit, rushing to open a business. However, not all of them take into account that any business can be promoted only by hard work, and money itself will not fall from the sky. Of course, there are those among celebrities who were able to achieve success, but there are also many who have gone bankrupt.
