How to play celebrity

The game of "Celebrity" is a fun diversion for everyone, especially those who consider entertainment reports front-page news.

You Will Need
* 4 or more players
* A large bowl
* Small pieces of paper
* A pen
* A timer

Step 1
Organize your group into teams of equal number.

Step 2
Have each team write the names of five celebrities on five pieces of paper. Collect all the papers and place them in a large bowl.

Don’t limit your choices to just movie or TV stars; try politicians, sports figures, and more.

Step 3
Elect one team member to select a paper from the bowl and then describe the celebrity using descriptions or clues. No part of the celebrity’s name may be used as a clue. Teammates have one minute to guess the celebrity.

Step 4
Give your team a point and select a new name from the bowl if you correctly guess the celebrity. Giving an illegal clue ends the turn and the other team draws a name. If you guess incorrectly, no point is given and your team loses a turn.

Step 5
Alternate giving and receiving clues with your partners. If you don’t recognize a celebrity name, return it to the bowl and draw another name. The next team repeats the steps.

Step 6
Add points to determine a winner. The team with the most points wins. Play as many rounds as you wish.
