    Dammit, Cameo is dead?

    I honestly loved the concept and would probably have been a customer if I could afford it.

    Contrary to your description, it was mostly celebrities doing custom greetings for fans, sometimes as themselves, sometimes in character and usually bought for people as a surprise gift.

    Amongst others, there was Jim Rash wishing a Community fan a happy birthday in character as Dean Pelton and dozens if not hundreds of short to medium length videos of Dave Mustaine from Megadeth recording super wholesome and sincere messages for specific fans.

    Can you honestly tell me that doesn’t sound great?

      You’re talking about a non-Google product called Cameo.

      Cameo = not-Google. Celebrities record videos per fan/follower request.

      Google Cameo = Celebrities record short videos as responses to Google searches about themselves.

      Similar, but different.

      I thought it was a made up product I seen on a movie, I can’t remember what movie it was, though.

          i think it was about this d list personality or a washed up actor who needs to top up and do his cameos to increase his net worth, and his manager reminding him to do the cameos.

          I dont even know if what i remember is existing or just a figment of my imagination. Lol. Just goes to show how fucked up our memories have become due to our online activties.
