Foursquare has launched a new Celebrity Mode of checking in.  Ashton Kutcher has already been a part of this feature and now Jersey Shore’s DJ Pauly D is on board too.  Celebrity Mode gives the ability for Foursquare users to share their location with real-life friends or all of their friends.  MTV and VH1 have partnered with Foursquare for this feature.  DJ Pauly D (Paul DelVecchio) is the first MTV celebrity to use the feature.

“Celebrity Mode is a modified version of the standard Foursquare model which allows users to ‘follow’ a celebrity and lets high-profile users to choose whether check-ins are sent to inner-circle friends or to both friends and followers,” stated Foursquare in a press release. “Foursquare users can also view tips that the celebrities they are following have left behind at places all over the world.” [CNET]

New York City based television channel and subsidiary of Viacom, Inc. (NYSE:VIA.B), VH1 has created a celebrity blog called Scandalist (http://www.scandalist.com/).  Scandalist has entertainment news, photos, videos, and commentary. 

Scandalist also has “Top 100 Celebrity Scandals,” a list that features what the biggest pop culture controversies were including R. Kelly’s court case, Kurt Cobain’s suicide, etc.  The sidebar of the blog features the top 100 celebrity scandals, the most scandalous photos, most popular stories of the week, most popular stories of all times, suggested links, and top tags.

Scandalist follows the launch of the VH1 blog that has content revolving around characters that have appeared on VH1 and MTV’s shows.

“After taking a look at how quickly we were able to grow the VH1 Blog on VH1.com, we decided to look at ways we could go deeper with our blog coverage of pop culture and our VH1 shows and events separately,” stated Tom Calderone, President of VH1. “With a dedicated staff of writers, Scandalist.com will serve as a distinct, yet complimentary site for fans of pop culture, entertainment news and all things celebrity.”
