Hip hop artist launches travel site
At first I thought: what on earth was Kanye West thinking trying to be a travel agent!? But a bit of thought and it makes complete sense -- it's a great way to encourage his fans to book with him, especially making it easy to for them follow him around when he's on tour!The Grammy-winning hip hop star has actually done a decent job making the site "Kanye Travel Ventures" seem quite resourceful as it offers hotel and flight bookings, car rental options, and last minute deals. It also has a list of suggestions on things to do in various cities and the site is working on developing city guides.
Primarily a marketing initiative for Kanye West, you'd think they'd flash in your face special Kanye West tour packages that include concert tickets, accommodation and flights, with cheaper deal options should you want to follow him around while he's on tour, but that hasn't happened yet.
Anyway, I don't know of any other celebrity that is trying to be a travel resource, just on that count you might want to check it out. Maybe he should open a site for shades too, he often has funky ones.
