Just when you thought the world was safe from the paparazzi, we announce the discovery of a whole new set of celebrities who, although they may not be as famous as some of the previous headline makers, have been hiding in plain sight, waiting to be discovered.
And so it was on Tuesday, October 2nd 2019 when TMZ broke the story that Robert Pattinson had been secretly recording podcasts for a year and had been hiding them from the world, waiting for the right moment to share them with the world. It seems he had kept them hidden even from his own mother, who had to discover them when she went into her son’s room to wake him up for a school day. So, without further ado, here are five ways to get Robert Pattinson’s voice for your podcast.
1. Look For The Hints
As we’ve established, this English actor is a bit of a secret agent. He’s been hiding clues to his podcasting from the world for a year and kept mum even about his plans to podcast. So, if you want his distinctive voice for your upcoming podcast, all you need to do is listen carefully to see if he drops any hints about it in the course of his interviews. These will all be available to you in a neatly packaged podcast at the end of the year. You can also look out for any podcasts where he guest-stars or interviews high-profile people, as they’re bound to have his gorgeous voice gracing them. You can also check out his Twitter, as he often drops little nuggets of information there, and his Instagram, where he occasionally shares stories about his travels or shows off his many fashionable garments.
Now is the perfect time to start your search. Just look out for any of the above and you’re sure to find the goods.
2. Work Your Social Media
Let’s face it, we’re all fans of Robert Pattinson online. Chances are, you’ve heard of him, perhaps even seen him, on the big or small screen. He is, therefore, a name that is likely to be familiar to your audience. And what better way to familiarize your audience with your podcast than by having the premiere episode devoted to Robert Pattinson? You could even follow his lead and have a whole episode dedicated to a single topic, such as fashion or film. That’s what makes this such a promising way to get the voice of Robert Pattinson. Your audience will love you for it.
The fact that he’s guarded about these new found talents means he’s probably planning to use them for future projects. Having the opportunity to work with such a recognizable star is enough to make even the most laidback production person keen to make the most of this chance. And who knows? You might even get to appear on his podcast some day. That would be a dream come true for any podcaster.
3. Check Out His Previous Work
Just because a famous person wants to keep their talent under wraps doesn’t mean they don’t want to continue working. And so it is with Robert Pattinson. He’s previously worked with big brands and companies, including Burberry, Gucci, and Marc Jacobs. He’s also been a face of a luxury goods campaign. In addition to this, he’s even narrated an audiobook. All of which would be perfect for your next podcast.
If you search for his name on the library database, you’ll find his work easily. In fact, you might even find a whole series devoted to his life and times. There are plenty of exciting stories to tell about this unique and talented man. And you can bet he wouldn’t object to lending his voice to your cause.
4. Interview High-Profile People
Sometimes, a celebrity’s very guarded privacy is just that – it’s a privacy issue. If you want to interview famous people, you have to be prepared to keep some of their secrets. And that’s what makes this route such a tantalizing one. You might even get to interview Robert Pattinson himself. You’d certainly make the most seasoned journalist envy your chances to speak to a living legend. And you’d have all the juicy details to tell your listeners.
Even if you don’t end up interviewing Robert Pattinson himself, you’re sure to get interviews with people at the very top of their fields. People like Anna Wintour, Christiane Amanpour and Katie Couric can all be potential interviewees. And if you get the opportunity to interview any of them, your podcast is sure to become the most popular one in its niche.
5. Be Creative
This is the final and most important tip. When it comes to getting the voice of a celebrity, creativity is everything. You have to be creative in your approach to finding a way to get the interviews you need without resorting to shamelessly chasing down the famous person concerned. At the end of the day, you’ll be doing them a favor. And you might even land an interview with someone who wouldn’t normally speak to news organizations.
Have a look at our blog. We rarely get celebrity interviews, due mainly to the fact that most famous people aren’t interested in speaking with a group of random bloggers. But that’s what makes us unique. We aren’t famous, so it’s unlikely that many people will come across our content. But maybe, just maybe, someone will stumble upon our page and feel like they know us. When that happens, we’re happy to oblige and give them a call to see if they’re interested in being interviewed by a group of people who have no connection to them whatsoever.
So there you have it. If you want to get the voice of Robert Pattinson, you’ve simply got to be creative. Not only will this help you come up with ideas for your podcast, but it’ll also help you come up with creative ways to get the interviews you need. Good luck!
