Cameo (website)

Cameo is an American video-sharing website headquartered in Chicago. Created in 2016 by Steven Galanis, Martin Blencowe, and Devon Spinnler Townsend, and launched in March 2017, the site allows fans to send some basic information to celebrities, who then use that to send personalized video messages to fans' friends, loved ones, or to the fans themselves. By May 2020, more than 30,000 celebrities had joined the platform. The company peaked at 400 employees during the COVID-19 pandemic in the United States, when social distancing during 2020 and 2021 made the service a convenient way to send unique best wishes to friends and family; by July 2023, staff had fallen to 33 people.
