BlogStar and Palm have announced a special application designed to take advantage of the text, picture, audio and video capabilities of Palm Treo smartphones. The new application will be used with BlogStar's new mobile blogging entertainment service, which features daily mobile entertainment content co-produced directly with celebrity artist partners.

The application will be available on Palm Treo smartphones to be used by BlogStar celebrity bloggers. BlogStar's portfolio of top international celebrities includes: Jessica Simpson, Ashlee Simpson, Wesley Snipes, Caprice, Juliette Lewis, Bam Margera, Kelly Slater, David Arquette, Nick Lachey, The Game, Alicia Silverstone, Nicky Hilton, West Coast Customs (of "Pimp My Ride" fame) and Ryan Cabrera, among others.

"We are thrilled to have created a powerful tool that makes the Palm Treo smartphone a mobile content publishing station for those innovative artists who produce mobile content with us. The tool simplifies the process by which BlogStar celebrities can create, edit, and publish on a real-time basis," said Keith Yokomoto, chief executive officer of BlogStar, LLC.

Celebrities blog from Treos. Why don't you? Nick Lachey, a longtime Treo smartphone user, said "BlogStar is a cool new way to keep my fans in the know. For the first time, I can reach them in real time. I can update my blog, post photos and even answer fans' questions from anywhere in the world I have wireless access."

The BlogStar Mobile service can also be accessed by consumers at blogstar.com or by text messaging the word "BlogStar" to 25647 ("blogs").
