Find them on a social media network or on a legitimate website. Finding one of the following is an important first step in contacting celebrities. Make sure that the website is frequented by the actual celebrity, not their agent, publicist or an impersonator. The following fall in order of "most likely to contact" to "least likely to contact the celebrity."

Twitter: Look for "tweets" that are posted by the celebrity. These tweets should be directed back at people who "tweeted @" the celebrity, that have actual photos of the celebrity that are taken in real life (not a studio or "official" portfolio photos), or "tweets" that are written about daily experiences of the celebrity. These are all good signs that you can "tweet @" the celebrity to actually contact them.

Their "Official" Website: Celebrities almost always have "Official websites" that they promote. This means you have a chance of being able to contact them via this method. While it's not preferred, since usually these are "managed" by publicists or agents, this can be a way to contact them. Search the site for actual responses to fan mail. If you can't find them, move on.

Facebook: Most Facebook accounts are "managed" by someone other then the celebrity. Again, you are looking for posts or pictures that seems to be from the celebrity themselves. If only "professional" photos and posts exist, this isn't going to be the best way to contact them. Chances are this will be the case.

Write them a message. Whether the message is tweeting at them, a private message to their inbox, an email or a post, you will want to spend time to write something original and heart-felt or funny, which make you more likely to get noticed. Find a balance between being too lengthy and too short, both of which are likely to get overlooked.

Wait for a reply. Depending on the celebrity, they may be getting dozens to thousands of messages a day. This means they will need time to shift through and find yours.
