Britt's Celebrity Congrats Sign-Up
I wanted something different from my usual congrats themes, and then this idea popped into my head.For this game, everyone creates their own original celebrity couple. They can be based on real couples or on two celebrities who aren't a couple, but do not use their real names. Each round your couple will get more children. Most rounds you will be able to choose whether you adopt or have a biological child, and some rounds I'll be dictator and decide for you :). There will be two generations as usual. Same sex-couples are fine, as always, and you can be married or not married, and there will be rounds where you can break up and get a new SO. Lovers are up to you, but I will assign any children they have. Names will have a different type of rule each round--don't worry, you won't be forced to use "celebrity-style" names if you don't want to.Your couple can be any type of celebrity in these categories. Mix and match as desired:
Film
Music
Literature
Personality (a la Kardashian)
Athletics
Tycoon (a la Donald Trump)
ModelingIf you would like another type of celebrity, then just tell me.Come up with a backstory for your couple. Tell us how your couple met, how each got famous, give them personality, give them a tabloid nickname if you want! Stories are very encouraged!
Rules:
1. Three rounds and dropped. I tried not dropping and it got a little out of hand. All missed rounds should be made up in the current round
2. Ages are required. I will keep up with them.
3. At least one middle name is required, but you can have as many as you want.
4. Stories are encouraged but not required other than a few lines to tell about your couple in the sign up.
5. Any questions, just ask, and have fun!

LN: Foster
Dbf: Jakob Nathaniel (25)
Dgf: Dahlia Helene "Lia" (21)
Type of Celebrity: Music (James) and Film (Lia)
Jakob Foster started out as a young man in a music school with a backpack of clothes, an old guitar, and an endless supply of dreams. During the later years of his education, he and three of his friends formed a band, J.A.C.K. (formed from their initials: Jakob as the guitarist/lead vocal, Al the keyboardist, Cyrus the bassist/backing vocal, and Kevin the drummer). J.A.C.K. did not initially succeed, but when their demo track was finally accepted by the umpteenth studio they sent it to, they suddenly became a radio hit. Moving up from management to management, J.A.C.K. ended up being much more than Jakob ever dreamed it would be! Fangirls everywhere (and sometimes even fanboys) entertained fantasies of spending "quality time" with the "hottie boys", and Jakob, with his mop of black hair and warm brown eyes, was the most popular of them. Sadly, some of it had gone to his head, but most of the time, Jakob remains an easygoing, funny young man with a guitar on his knee.Lia Thorne started out much more easily than Jakob. Born to a West End stage actor, Gary Thorne, and a stage costume specialist, Beth Campbell, Lia started out her life literally drowned in acting. As a child, she played Dorothy in her school's (very much abridged) version of "The Wizard of Oz", and as she grew up even acted alongside her father (who played the titular character) in "The Phantom of the Opera" as understudy for the role of Meg Giry. But it was her film career that made Lia famous. At the tender age of nineteen, Lia played the lead female role in an action-fantasy flick called "Crescent", in which she played a vampire girl falling in love with a werewolf. Her acting was lauded as genius, and Lia soon found many offers of roles dumped on her feet.It was on one such job that she met her future boyfriend. Starring in a film version of "Jem and the Holograms", Lia insisted to the director that they needed a real-life band to cameo as Jem's concert opener, and the director managed to contact J.A.C.K.

DH: Hudson Paul Wednesday (31)
DW: Eleanor Katherine “Ellie” Hemmingway (25)
Type of Celebrity: Film, Modeling Ellie and Hudson originally met when Ellie had just turned 18, and was staring in her first big role, that she was playing opposite Hudson Wednesday. There was an instant connection but neither of them had the courage at that point to make anything of it. They were both young and just having fun.
They kept in touch for a little while after the movie, but after that they seemed to talk less and less and eventually stopped talking all together.
Hudson landed a few big roles in the past years, dated a few gorgeous women, but he knew deep down that none of those experiences compared to the ones that involved Ellie.
The two didn’t run into each other very often because after that film, Ellie found her true love in modeling.
Hudson was unaware of this when, three years ago, he attended a fashion show and saw her there. She was just as beautiful and subtle as he had remembered her; and after the show, he had to go find her.
Ellie recognized him right away of course; he had always remained in the back of her mind. When he approached her, her heart started to race. She knew something was different about him. He was confident, handsome, with innocent eyes and a wide smile.
Hudson asked Ellie if she had time for a 5 minute talk over coffee. They walked over to a diner, and ended up speaking for hours.
And the rest… is history. The story came out a lot longer than I intended... :P

He finished high school and university at Magdalen College, Oxford, and since then has distributed his time between film, tv, and the stage.Unlike her future husband, Ghislaine did not start out her career acting.

Ghislaine then turned her attention to acting and also is in the process of getting a degree at university (the Royal Holloway in London). It was in London that she met her husband Oliver, while at a premiere of a new Broadway show. It was only a year before he proposed.

Ghislaine and Oliver were married in a Roman Catholic ceremony in her hometown of Saint-Malo, in St. Vincent's Cathedral. From there, it was just a short drive to a country estate where they had the reception.

His first book was published his senior year of college and it was a hit! People everywhere enjoyed his family-friendly, fun fantasy story.

Type of Celebrity: Zeke is an actor, Rose is a personality (daughter of the former President).Zeke Montgomery (born Jacob Ezekiel Montgomery, he chooses to go by the short form of his middle name, as it stands out more) is one of Hollywood's hottest young actors. Zeke first broke on to the big screen at the age of 15, when he beat thousands of other teenage boys to the role of Charlie Moon, the main character in the Charlie Moon book series. Zeke managed to avoid the pitfalls often faced by 'teen stars', by carving a successful film career as an adult, a career that has so far has already seen him nominated for an Academy Award. Zeke was born and raised on the Chicago North Shore, his parents Andrew and Shirley, are a lawyer and teacher respectively. Zeke has a twin brother, Samuel, who works as his assistant.Roselia Cooper (usually known as Rose), is the daughter of the former President and First Lady, Isaac and Marianne Cooper. Although not a traditional celebrity, growing up as the 'First Daughter' means Rose was always going to live life in the public eye, even after her father's second term in office came to an end. Rather than be frustrated by the media's attention towards her, Rose has decided to use it for good, and uses her name to promote causes and issues that are important to her. Away from the public eye, Rose (a Columbia University alumni, who majored in English and Creative Writing) is trying to carve a career as a writer, albeit under a nom de plume. Rose has one older brother, Alexander, who has gone into medicine.Zeke and Rose met at a fund-raising event for one of the charities that Rose actively promotes and supports. Zeke had paid top dollar to sit at the Rose's table, as he was keen to introduce himself to her, and the rest as they say is history.The public are media are delighted by the pairing of Hollywood's main heartthrob and the all-American girl they saw grow up before their eyes.

Type of Celebrity: Eric - TV Star; Noelle - ModelEric Hastings, Ric to his friends, has become very well known over the last few years playing the leading role of Luca Van Ross on the most popular show on TV, Blood Diaries. He's become a sex symbol, something he finds really amusing, though he knows it's really Luca's dark raw sexuality who all the girls want, not Ric himself.Ellie Vincent is a victoria's secret model, and a college graduate with a degree in literature. She hates the 'bimbo' stereotype models seem to get and the only thing that fazes her usually calm demeanor is people assuming shes all looks and no brains. Ric & Ellie met when Ellie took a guest role on Blood Diaries (her agent thought she should 'branch out'...). They became friends quickly, and they couldn't help but laugh at all the tabloid rumours that suddenly sprung up about them. They would often hang out in those first few months and it was a personal joke between them to see what lies the paparazzi would fall for. Within 6 weeks of meeting, they'd managed to create rumours that they were pregnant with triplets, and married, and then separated. Their publiscists were furious with them, but Ric & Ellie found it halarious to finally one up the tabloids. Everything changed however when they took their 'relationship' to a new level as part of their never ending game and Ric kissed her... With that one kiss everything changed and all of their playing at being in a relationship stopped and they actually started dating. Once the game was over they became very private about their love. It was all fun while they were just messing around, but once they'd actually admitted their feelings they weren't so ok with the constant intrusion, though they try to protect their reputations by being cordial at least.

Michael had been playing Football his whole life, from the time he was five years old. He was granted a full athletic scholarship to Dartmouth University, and from there was drafted into professional football. He quickly achieved stardom due to his frequent partying and smoldering good looks. Michael was known as a shameless flirt, the tabloids constantly reporting his latest hookups. As a cheerleader for Michael's football team, Rose immediately captured his attention but it wasn't until she began modeling for Victoria's Secret that Michael began actually pursuing her. She reached celebrity status when she was hailed by the media as the most alluring and sought after model. All the attention was new, but not unwanted and the tabloids went crazy when word leaked that she had began dating Michael, and even more so when they announced their marriage. Their wedding took place at Michael's family's home in Martha's Vineyard, a small ceremony with family and a few close friends. Rose and Michael look forward to spending the rest of their lives together.

Ivan Petrov was exposed to the world of celebrity at a young age as the son of one of the top former Russian Olympic gold medalists in mens' gymnastics, Sergey Petrov, and ballerina Mariya Mikhailova. He was born in Boston, Massachusetts after his parents immigrated. Sergey opened his own gymnastics facility, which was soon filled with all different levels of students due to his reputations as a gymnast and coach. Mariya even periodically offered some ballet classes to help the gymnasts with their artistry and lines. Young Ivan was frequently with his father and mother, running around the building. One day when he was 2, they noticed him trying to mimic a few of the older boys practicing handstands and subsequently placed him in lessons. Over the years, Sergey quickly realized his son had great potential to reach the Olympics like he himself had.Enter Ekaterina Cavanaugh. Adopted from Russia at age 4 by a Boston-area couple, she was enrolled in beginning classes at the Petrov facility when her new parents realized she loved to tumble around the house. Like Ivan (called Vanya), Ekaterina (called Katya) blazed through the levels in the gym. As the top level female gymnast, she was often training in close conjunction with Vanya, the top level male gymnast. They became good friends. Katya qualified for her first Junior Nationals at age 11, and was named to the Junior National Team at the end of competition. When Katya was 15 (and turning 16 in December) and Vanya was 20, the Summer Olympics were held in Lisbon, Portugal. They each qualified as the top qualifier in their respective disciplines and each went on to medal in every event in their discipline. Vanya claimed 5 golds (including the all-around), 2 silvers, and a bronze.

Type of Celebrity: Film / ModelMiles Treble was born John-Michael Lewis Smith. However, as soon as he entered the acting world, he started going by Miles Treble. Miles had been a childhood nickname, while Treble was his mother's maiden name. He found his new name to be more memorable than John Smith, or even Michael Smith. He got his first job when he was 18, as a disadvantaged highschooler in a dark drama. When the drama started getting award nominations, including one for Miles as best supporting actor, his fame sky rocketed and he has since starred in many serious and comedy films. Miles not is known for anything infamously though he does have a weakness for sports cars and owns seven. Annie grew up in a middle class family. Her mother was an immigrant from India, while her father came from Chile. Upon coming to the US, he changed his last name from Vasquez to Vance, to feel more American. When she was sixteen, Annie was discovered by an agent, who liked her multicultural looks and she began modeling for several high fashion companies. She has since become a spokes-model for several makeup products directed to younger customers. At 22, she's not quite ready to retire from modeling just yet, but she knows that she doesn't have too many more years left.
Annie and Miles met when at the wedding of a mutual friend and began dating. In less than a year, the two were engaged and they were married soon after in a lavish wedding, attended by many celebrities.

Type of Celebrity: Film (both actors)Annie Delaney had quite a life. Born into the legendary Delaney family, a family of actors and directors and singers and writers and even artists. Annie was surrounded by stardom from the moment of her birth. Born to the legendary actor Christopher Delaney and his equally-legendary actress wife Jennifer Kent Delaney, it was inevitable that Annie would be pushed into the spotlight. She started acting at the age of six months, playing a baby in a movie about a custody battle, and acted ever since. At six she was starring in movies, and in the early 2000s she was one of the top teen stars. Her classic dark-haired, big-eyed beauty had her in high demand for modeling and other deals, and though her parents tried to be the best managers they could, by eighteen Annie felt burned out. So, with the support of her parents, she took a step back. She attended Columbia University (an experience she loved, though bombarded for autographs almost daily), got a degree in English and studied theater, and when she graduated decided to try her hand at Broadway. She took her career much slower, and it was while working in a revival of Les Miserables (where she played Eponine) she met Leo Morelli. He played Marius, and the two had such chemistry that it was considered that she switch to playing Cosette.
