BUZ Interactive Introduces 'Say it With a Star' - a Service for Celebrities to Connect With Fans Through Personalized Voice Messages

New Service to Kick Off with Billy Danzenie and Lil' Fame of M.O.P., Jadakiss, Lil' Flip, Lord Tariq and Planet Asia

HOLLYWOOD, Calif., May 2 /PRNewswire/ -- OnHollywood Conference -- BUZ Interactive(TM), the leader in voicemail personalization services, today unveiled a new voicemail messaging service designed to bring star-power to mobile voicemail. The new service, Say it With a Star(TM), provides a vehicle for celebrities to create and market personalized audio greetings that can be sent by consumers to any cell phone or used in voicemail greetings.

Initial stars participating in the program include platinum recording artists Jadakiss and Lil' Flip, rappers Billy Danzenie and Lil' Fame of M.O.P., and hip-hop recording artists Lord Tariq and Planet Asia.

"Say it With a Star is a great new service," said Lil' Flip. "It will not only allow me to strengthen my connection with my fans, but also introduces a creative new channel for those fans to send messages to their friends that incorporate my personality and style."

Say it with a Star provides celebrities with a compelling new channel for revenue, promotion and communication with their fans. As part of the service, celebrities will be able to sell personalized audio greetings and messages from their own Web sites, and also send audio messages directly to the cell phones of their fans. The celebrity recordings, which users may choose to send to a friend's cell phone or load into their own voicemail as a greeting, will also be offered through BUZ Interactive's rapidly growing GETaBUZ service at www.GETaBUZ.com.

"My friends will love getting a message from me with a famous artist's voice," said Brittney Pierini, 21. "The idea of being able to send a friend a birthday message with their name in the voice of their favorite celebrity is really unique and fun."

"Say it With a Star is a unique new way for stars to communicate with their fans," said Eric Sirkin, president and co-founder of BUZ Interactive. "It's also an exciting opportunity for consumers to incorporate the talent and personality of their favorite stars into their mobile voice messages and greetings."
