NFT is attracting celebrities, and it appears Dennis Rodman is one of them. Recently, Dennis joined several leading NFT communities, including Swampverse, My Pet Hooligan, and Robotos. He also has been active in the NFT Twitter space, sparking many interesting discussions. Here is a look at some of the things that you should know about Rodman’s new project.
Celebrities are getting in on the NFT biz
Many celebrities have gotten into the NFT craze. For instance, Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey sold his first tweet for millions of dollars and donated the proceeds to charity. Tesla CEO Elon Musk once announced that he would sell the NFT as a music download, but later backed out. Artists like Grimes have been selling crypto artwork for millions of dollars, and Reese Witherspoon has also bought one.
The latest celebrity to jump into the NFT craze is socialite Paris Hilton. The socialite turned crypto promoter shared an NFT clip on “The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon” last week. The clip was so affectless and overtly promotional that vice and New York magazine compared it to a crypto-Herbalife pitch. Jacobin wrote a piece entitled “NFTS Are Bulls**t,” slamming the clip.
Other celebrities are joining the NFT craze. In addition to announcing a new NFT collection, comedian Ashton Kutcher invested in the production of a Netflix animated series, “Your Place or Mine.” The film also allowed NFT holders to vote on the show’s plot and characters. Meanwhile, entertainment companies are also cashing in on the NFT trend, too. Fox Entertainment released 10,000 Miss Masky NFTs tied to the hit reality show. The company hopes that fans will collect them and trade them on its Eluvio platform.
Dennis Rodman’s hairstyles transform into NFTs
The iconic NBA player Dennis Keith Rodman has made his way into the world of NFTs in more ways than one. Listed among the NBA’s top 75 players, Rodman was a 5x NBA champion, two-time Defensive Player of the Year, and two-time All-Star. Known for his constant hair transformations, Rodman’s hairstyles can be seen on a variety of different NFTs.
Aside from basketball, Dennis Rodman has also entered the crypto world, with his latest NFT collection, “Rodman’s Barbershop,” inspired by his legendary hairstyles. The collection includes digital artworks depicting various hairstyles that Rodman has worn over the years. This NFT collection is sure to get heads turning and get conversations going in social media. The series is set to be released in September via the OpenSea platform, and is expected to sell out quickly.
While the NBA’s NBA legend has been celebrated for his gender-fluid hairstyles, the NFTs are now becoming a popular way to capitalize on his cultural cachet. The “Rodman’s Barbershop” NFT collection will launch on OpenSea on April 11, and more information will be shared on the social networks and Discord channel. There will be an official website and a discord channel for the collection later this month.
