Contacting Movie & TV Stars
Official Channels
Sometimes you may need to contact a celebrity not because you want to get to know the celebrity personally, but because you have a business opportunity or charitable cause that could use the star’s assistance. These days, you need to take things through a process that is professional and official. Nobody is going to sign on to help the Superstar Muscular Dystrophy Organization if the head of that organization is looking for celebrities by approaching them in restaurants while they are dining on eggs Benedict over a cup of coffee. Likewise, if you’re sending away for signed photos with a note that says, "I’ve got a great opportunity for you. Call me at this number…," you’re not going to get very far.
However, there are channels you can go through, and several services have been set up to assist you:
The Screen Actors Guild of America (SAG)
The Screen Actors Guild (also known as SAG) has a free telephone hotline available for those who need to find the agent for an actor or actress. They only give the agency name and phone number for up to three celebrities at a time, so if you want more you’ll have to call back.
Actors to Locate Line: 323-549-6737
Since it is a free service, the hold times are usually quite long, and often the celebrity’s information you’re looking for will show up with "no contact information listed", which means you have a lot more work to do in order to find the information you want.
To contact the Screen Actors Guild for other reasons, use the following information:
