Celebrity status

Celebrity Status is a new feature in The Sims 3: Late Night. It is reminiscent of Fame in The Sims: Superstar.

A Sim's Celebrity Status is displayed by 1 to 5 stars. Sims must perform certain tasks and brag about themselves in order to gain a higher Celebrity Status. The neighborhood already has celebrities and one way to launch your way into stardom is to befriend other celebrities. Celebrity NPC's are distinguished by having a gold star over their heads.

You don't need to be in the new Film career to become famous. Any Sim can become a celebrity.

If a Paparazzi catches you fighting another Sim, skinny dipping in a pool or dancing on the bar you may be fired from your job or get the "Walk of Shame" moodlet. You can however drag the Paparazzi to court. .

When you get really famous you may recieve free stuff from fans and businesses, such as free groceries, free drinks , free books at the Bookstore , free treatments at the Spa and access to exclusive bars and clubs where other celebrities hang out. You may also recieve Simoleans for showing up at parties and having your picture taken.

If you are at the top of your career, you will gain celebrity status faster.
