If you've secretly missed a certain celebrity or really loved the work of a new artist, then sending a fan letter is the best way to get in touch. To send a fan letter to a celebrity, you need to write and send the correct address. There are also other ways to get in touch with celebrities, such as using social media and email!

Steps

Method 1 of 3: Write a fan letter

1. 

   Write briefly and straight to the topic. Show respect for celebrities by writing a letter about one page long. Since they are busy people and can receive a lot of fan mail, the length of a page is perfect for quick reading.
   • Remember, it is unlikely that a celebrity will read the second page if your letter is longer than one page.
   • If you're sending messages on social media, be mindful of the character limit. Example: If you're going to tweet to celebrities on Twitter, don't let the character count exceed 280!

2. 

   
   
   Introduce yourself. Initially, write 2 or 3 sentences about yourself, introduce your name, age, and address. Talk about the first time you got to know them and how they have influenced your life.
   • Don't be afraid to tell a short story about the first time you got to know their work. Can write in a little confidant style!
   • If you write to Britney Spears, you could write the following: “My name is Kate, 19 years old. I've been a huge fan of her ever since I heard the song ‘Oops, I Did It Again’ on the radio as a kid! ”

3. 

   
   
   Mention their favorite book, movie or show. Write as detailed as possible. Tell them why you liked the book, show or movie and mention the line or scene you like. Let's talk about how big an impact it has on you.
   • This helps build connections between you and the celebrity and maybe they'll respond.
   • Example: If you write to writer J.K.Rowling, you could write something like this: “I really like the The Goblet of Fire because this section shows me what it means to be courageous in the face of difficult challenges ”.

4. 

   
   
   Politely ask for your signature if you mail in the mail. If you are writing a letter, don't hesitate to ask for a signature! Be gracious and write it simply: "I would be happy if I could ask for a signature."
   • Always remember that there's no guarantee you'll get anything in return from a celebrity, but it's okay to ask.

5. 

   Thank you and send them wishes. It is important that you show the celebrity your kindness in the letter and show the infinite happiness you have of having the opportunity to talk to them. Write: "Thank you very much for taking the time to read my letter" or "I wish you success in your next project!" You can even ask for their feelings to encourage them to respond!
   • This helps celebrities see that you are not only asking for autographs, but are genuinely interested in them.

Method 2 of 3: Send mail by mail

1. 

   Determine the correct recipient address. Most fan mails go to celebrity reps, but a few celebrities have their own mailbox addresses. Look online for the celebrity's name and add the words "address" and "fan mail address". Usually you will find a representative or a mailing address!
   • Find the celebrity homepage and any fan club page. You can find contact information on both pages.
   • If you find it difficult to find the address, look up the name of something related to the project they are working on, such as a movie premiere or recently aired TV show.Sometimes, the entire cast has a shared fan mailbox address.

2. 

   Put the letter in the envelope and have your address stamped if you want a reply. Fold the letter and put it in the envelope. If in the letter you mention getting your signature, write your address on another envelope and put a stamp on it. Insert this envelope into the envelope containing the letter you write. That way, celebrities just need to sign it, put it in the envelope and mail it back!
   • Make sure the envelope is large enough to fit what you're asking for, like a signed photo. If necessary, fold the pre-written envelope and place it in the main envelope.

3. 

   Place the address on the envelope and put the stamp on it. Write the recipient's name, city, city, province, and postal code in the center of the front of the envelope. Make sure the address you enter matches the one you find online! Then, place the stamp on the top right corner of the envelope.
   • If you are writing to a celebrity in another country, such as France, Australia or Canada, the addressing method may be different from when you mail to someone in the United States.
   • For example: For mail sent to the US, write the address as below:
     
     Mr. John Smith
     1234 Main Street
     New York City, NY 10001
     (Mr. John Smith
     1234 Main Street
     New York City, NY 10001)

Method 3 of 3: Contact people by the public online

1. 

   Look for dedicated celebrity work email addresses to secure your messages. Most celebrities have their professional email address listed on their official homepage. If they do not have a public email address, try emailing their representatives and management companies. You just need to copy your fan letter to email and send it to the available mailbox address.
   • Avoid asking for a signature by email. This causes celebrities to perform more actions. Instead, use email as a means of communication and build relationships with celebrities!
   • Make sure you have a headline unique enough to catch their attention, like "Good luck this Sunday!" if the recipient is a soccer player.

2. 

   Send a Facebook message to get more chance to reply. Celebrity Facebook accounts are very popular and the likelihood of a response is pretty high. Type in the search bar of their full name to find the main Facebook account with a green check mark next to the name, then press the message button at the top bar of the page. Next, add their name message, type in the text of your fan letter and hit send.
   • This is a great way to get a quick response to an easy question, and you can see when a celebrity read your message.
   • Remember that most celebrities hire a social media administrator to help them. However, the answer could still be a celebrity's idea even if someone typed it in for them!

3. 

   Connect on Instagram or Twitter to interact with them every day. Find the person's public Instagram or Twitter account online by searching by name. Leave supportive comments on the photos they post or respond to the tweet with a funny animation. You can even tag them in your own artwork! Send a message directly by opening the messaging function and typing their nickname into the search bar to add them to your message. Then type and send your message.
   • Example: If you draw or color a celebrity picture, tag them in your posts. Many celebrities like Nick Jonas, Justin Timberlake, Taylor Swift and Lady Gaga have a habit of responding to fan-designed artwork posts!
   • You can always tell when a celebrity reads your message, but don't be discouraged if they haven't responded. They receive a lot of text messages on social media every day, so it is difficult to read them all.

4. 

   Be reliable and doesn't send a lot of messages. Filling someone's inbox or announcements is unacceptable, even if they're celebrities. You should only message once a week and comment on pictures once. Don't say anything negative about celebrities or their other fans on social media.
   • Sending too many malicious messages or comments can cause celebrities to block you.

Advice

• Be patient when waiting for a reply! Sometimes it takes months for a celebrity to open a message you send.
• Don't get angry if you never get a reply. Celebrities are very busy and often don't have time to reply to everyone's messages. That doesn't mean they don't value the fans.
