Although some of us may love the iPhone for its ability, OS or some other techy reason, there are plenty of other people who love it purely for its sleek, shiny looks.  The celebrity hasn’t failed to be attracted to the fashionable iPhone and while we’re willing to believe some fully embrace its smartphone features, others may see it as the technological equivalent of a designer bag, oversized watch or small dog.

So what happens when being pictured with your iPhone is not enough?  That’s right, you release an app.  Inspired by Kevin Smith’s tweet earlier today that he would be releasing an iPhone app soon – which we are totally onboard with – here are five other celebrity endorsed apps, which take it a step further than the usual ‘official’ news updater, to be found in the glittery corner of the App Store.

Jamie’s 20 Minute Meals.

Slightly irritating celeb chef Jamie Oliver has given us an app which contains fifty recipes that supposedly take 20 minutes to prepare and serve.  It’s not just written instructions either, there are audio clips – so you can revel in the mockney – and video clips too.  Presumably thanks to the high price, this application is well made and looks good, plus the recipe instructions are easy to follow.

Relapse.

While Relapse the game is really just a promotional tool for Relapse the album, you would have thought Eminem would have put his name to something a little, um, less rubbish.  A sideways scrolling beat ‘em up, you play Eminem hitting some zombies until the game stops.  Which is a welcome relief.

Noel Edmonds Cosmic Ordering.

Bearded presenter of Deal or No Deal in the UK is a firm believer in spirituality and the concept of cosmic ordering, and here is his application to help both the dedicated and the newcomers make the most of the life management system.  Although the title sounds ‘unusual’, many may find its organizational aspects helpful.  Or not.

It’s Britney!

Yes, it is!  Stick your own mugshot into pictures of Britney onstage to become one of her ‘dancers’ and shake your iPhone to hear the inspiring phrase ‘It’s Britney, bitch!’.  News, tweets and messages from Britney herself are also included.  Best of all, it’s only $2! However will we resist.

Diddy’s BlackBook.

The only free celeb app on our list, this is Sean ‘Diddy’ Combs’s little black book of the best restaurants, shops, bars and clubs that the man himself recommends, or at least we presume he does seeing as his name is at the top.

So, that’s our taster of the celeb iPhone app world.  Now you tell us what famous people you’d like to see make an app and what sort it would be.  Tongues can be placed firmly in cheeks if you so wish!
