  • 1-5 years writing experience in the celebrity or entertainment journalism field a must.
  • Are happy covering everything from Hollywood heavyweights and music A-Listers to trending reality stars, celebrity wives or girlfriends, feuds, rappers, and those headline-making Instagram updates.

  • Bachelor's degree from a U.S. institution preferred.
  • Have a keen eye for great social media images, which our custom CMS permits you to use.

  • Accepting and applying feedback, alongside contributing semi-regularly to being a beta-tester for the platform, with your feedback helping us to optimize user experience.
