There are a few of celebrities who endorsed crypto projects. I think it shouldn’t be the main factor for investment decision. Focusing in the product and business model will be better.
There was one celebrity boxer who backed a cryptocurrency called Centra and things didn't turn out well for him.

The majority of celebrities are getting paid for that. And that's why i won't take it.
Advisors style?

Indeed many world celebrities who know the world of crypto but they are only limited subject to be involved to be able to promote the project and seek personal gain, but not directly into a team or dev who plunge to take care and develop the platform well. With his name already fame certainly many people who are more interested and believe. This way the project can work.
McAfee the creator of the antivirus and the next american president promoted a lot of ICOs such se Bezop, Bobsrepair or Docacademic.
There are so many famous people interested in cryptocurrency and they've invested so much money in cryptocurrency. As I can remember that there is a thread about famous people get into crypto world in this forum with each post about famous people in crypto world you guys will be able to get 1 merit for it 
). I can't find out the link right now but as I can remember the list is really great.

Good day. Yes I've seen a few celebrities joining crypto recently. Even here in the Philippines and more likely there are some abroad too. Some projects are hiring them for more popularity and to entice more investors for celebrities can create a huge impact on a project. Its healthy for crypto I think. The more people who knows about crypto the more investors will join.
Just wanted to create a thread on this and if anyone has heard from reliable sources of well known people recently expressing interest in cryptocurrency.
The only celebrities I've seen talking about crypto are guys in the tech or finance industry. Warren Buffet is heavily against bitcoin which should be expected as he stands to lose a lot of money from its' success.
I did see some celebrities promoting ICO scams though. They weren't interested in crypto, they just promoted it for the money. I remember Floyd Mayweather, T.I, Paris Hilton , and Dj Khaled all promoting an ICO this past year.
Here are some links for my previous post.

I know russian pop star Olga Buzova start her own ICO project Buzcoin, and it is popular in Russia, now her bounty campaign is ongoing on BountyGuru platform and it will be till september. It is starts normal when celebrities has their own coin, everybody whants to get a part of hype))))
There are lots of celebrities expressing their support for cryptocurrencies! Also, a lot of celebrities have been partnered up with cryptocurrency project to gain publicity and support the emerging technology. Also, Sacramento Kings are planning to build miners inside the arena to mine Ethereum! Source : https://www.facebook.com/cnbccrypto/videos/1788436671239571/
I never buy celebrity and altcoin tokens, which are also called Fiat tokens. For me it is a signal that in addition to the name of these projects there is nothing more to offer. Celebrities can't answer for their actions because they're like prostitutes. Who will pay them that and praise. How can you trust advertising with people like that?
Celebraties around the globe might be using bitcoin and other digital currencies, but it is not much known to the outer world. As the market for bitcoin keeps increasing more people too has begun to use bitcoin. One thing specific is that Celebraties usage will easily make common people follow them.
Just wanted to create a thread on this and if anyone has heard from reliable sources of well known people recently expressing interest in cryptocurrency.
The well know star Akon is going to launch his own coin this year.
He'll be issuing an ICO to fund his project to finance infrastructure in Africa.
Guess the name of coin?
AKoin
Yes Akoin token presented by AKON has been trending for couple of weeks now and we can only hope that more celebrities have intentions of making cryptocurrency known to the universe.
Lets all hope for the success of every altcoin as we eliminate every scam tokens.
This thread will really be beneficial
Thanks.
This was probablly the most interesting fact I read today. Also, great topic, didn't even think about it.

I have heard many celebrities talking about Bitcoin in the past, for example Ashton Kutcher seems quite interested about it and seems to have some knowledge about it past the most standard "i've heard it's digital money" thing.
Rappers like Snopp Dogg and 50 Cent have claimed to own some.
And then we've had other clueless celebrities tricked into advertising ICO scams like Floyd Mayweather or Kate Perry.

This year alone a lot of celebrities are endorsing crytpocurrencies for their brands and project. A typical example is Akon, America pop star which lunches Akoin as the monetary currency for his energy city project.
