According to Paige Wiser of the Chicago Sun-Times, a new site, www.StarVsStar.com, brings a long-awaited aspect to fantasy gaming: celebrity gossip. By forming leagues and drafting 10 celebrities to your squad that you follow and get points for their good - and bad - deeds. Each season lasts 9 weeks and culminates in a “championship”.

It’s definitely a spin on fantasy sports as more hobbies and pasttimes develop fantasy-type leagues. The effect of celebrity-related fantasy leagues is that it may bring more women and non-fantasy sports players into the fantasy realm.
