Yahoo! Launches A New Celebrity Gossip Called OMG!

By Amit Chowdhry • Jun 11, 2007

Yahoo! has been making some interesting moves lately. Today the company announced that they have launched a celebrity news and information website called OMG. The URL is www.omg.yahoo.com.

Yahoo! Entertainment, NBC’s Access Hollywood, and x17 is providing some of the content for the website. And Yahoo! OMG also contains videos embedded from Yahoo! Video.

There are three tabs of featured content: Hot Topics, Celebs, and News. Hot Topics currently include BFFs, Big Sunglasses, and Brangelina. It is interesting to see Yahoo! get into this space because there are a number of celebrity media companies that already dominate the space such as People and Entertainment Tonight.
