Celebrities A/V systems - any interest?


I am thinking of writing magazine articles on the audio system's of famous people, complete with pictures and their personal philosophies/tastes in music and equipment -- if I can find a few who are willing to strut their stuff.

First of all, would you as audiophiles be interested in seeing such a feature?

Secondly, do you think that celebs would be willing to cooperate or would they see potential conflicts with themselves being viewed as endorsing products and so forth?

Does anyone remember the feature that Stereophile (or maybe Fi) ran on Fabio's outrageous Krell/Martin Logan/Infinity system a couple of years ago? I thought that was wild -- Infinity IRSes as rear channels, REALLY!

All comments are welcome, but be nice. :) If there are any famous or relatively well-known people reading this who would be interested or could offer me some insight, by all means feel free to e-mail me through Audiogon.

I think this has been done already. Check out the magazine "Audio Video Interiors". They showcase the audio system and home theater setups of homes of the rich and famous. Some of the homes are owned by non-famous wealthy people, others are owned by celebrities who the magazine names. They also give a plug for the installer, and explain how they built the system into the home. Some of the systems are definitely high-end (Mark Levinson, Lamm, Wilson), while others seem to be a hodge-podge of high-end gear and mass market stuff (Krell amps and Pioneer DVD changers kind of thing). I find the magazine interesting because I get to see what a money-is-no-object approach looks like. I take some of those ideas (the ones I can afford) for my own home theater. Check it out.

Also, while everyone is one the subject of movies: what's the turntable used in Tomb Raider? (the one she used while doing the bungy-ballet). And could anyone see the speakers? As a side note, someone on that movie's sound team did a high quality soundtrack transfer right there (as opposed to the rest of the movie which was recorded at an obscenely low level in comparison to other movies), because the piano she is listening to really shines beyond the typical home theater mix.
Hey Guys,
Don't forget (although most of us have) about the Krell system that the prostitute stoll from the dork that acted opposite Sandra Bullock in "Love Potion #9." It was mildly amusing that a lab-rat (as he was portrayed as) could afford all those Krell pieces at such a young age.
It would be a good coffee table book for sure, a few years ago my brother and his friend published a book about band names and how they came about, or what they meant, like the new yard birds was Led Zepplins original name untill Keith Moon said the band would go over like a lead zepplin..stuff like that, it was a cool book.
A book about the origins of band names would be a helluva lot more interesting to me than a book about celebrities' audio systems.
When I visited Thiel Audio,Shari shared with me Janet Jackson ordered a pair 2.4's in custom pink finish.
She also told me, Jerry Seinfeld ordered 3 pair of 2.4's in custom chrome finish to have in his car garage..no lie
