- "Celebrity" redirects here. For other uses, see Celebrity (disambiguation).
- Not to be confused with Fame.
Celebrity status is a 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.[1] The neighborhood already has celebrities and one way to launch sims way into stardom is to befriend other celebrities. Celebrity NPC's are distinguished by having a gold star over their heads.[1]
Sims don't need to be in the Film career to become famous. Any Sim can become a celebrity.[2]
If a paparazzi catches a Sim fighting another,[2] skinny dipping in a pool or dancing on the bar they may be fired from their job or get the "Walk of Shame" moodlet.[3] Sims can, however, drag the paparazzi to court. Celebrities can also try to attempt to escape from paparazzi.[2] In addition, doing a variety of tasks (including peeing themselves, passing out, and detonating/smashing objects) in public or private will cause the "Publicly Disgraced" moodlet and the inability to receive bonuses for 3 days. In addition, if a sim is recognized as a celebrity within that time, the moodlet will be negative.
When Sims get really famous they may receive free stuff from fans and businesses, such as free groceries,[2] free drinks,[1] free books at the bookstore,[3] free treatments at the spa[3] and access to exclusive bars and clubs where other celebrities hang out.[1] Sims may also receive simoleons for showing up at parties and having their picture taken. Sims could even make a living out of all the freebies they receive (if they are at Level 5) by selling them and not have to work. Being a Celebrity pays (in simoleons). Just don't keep spending! [4]
If a consignment store register recognizes a Sim as a celebrity they may get a discount and The Recognized as a Celebrity moodlet.
Celebrity stars do not decay or can not be lost. If a Sim gains a star, they will be a celebrity forever, even after death.
Ways to gain celebrity status
- Building a network (of friends)[2]
- Brag about fame[2]
- Brag about skills[2]
- Offering drinks to other celebrities[2]
- Do assignments / complete opportunities[2]
- Perform gigs in a band[1]
- Have good relationships (become friends) with existing celebrities.[1]
- Kissing other celebrities
- Telling gossip and taking compromising photos
- Becoming the boyfriend/girlfriend of a celebrity
- Getting married to a celebrity
If a celebrity sim has a child, the child may inherit the celebrity status when he or she grows up. Sims at the top of their career will gain celebrity status faster.[2] However, this may because of the initial relationship a child will have with the parents. If the mother is a celebrity and the father also lives in the same household and is a celebrity (even if he is not a celebrity but the mother's is high enough), then the child's initial relationship with the parents will be the cause of any stars the child achieves at birth.
