The American photo and video sharing social networking service owned by Facebook is one social media platform where most celebrities feed their fans and followers real-time information and gists about their lives.

Many Nigerian celebrities, especially, practitioners in Nigerian movie industry, popularly called Nollywood, have also embraced the platform to sell their brand.
