Famous People Send Your Messages   (+2)  [vote for, against]
Obama appears on your friends phone and says "Hey man, where's that twenty bucks you owe me?"

This was done for a TV show intro. (without the video) It would make a pretty funny app to send messages to your friends.

In this texting program you pick the famous person you want to have relay your message. You input your text and a video of that person speaking your message is created.

This is accomplished by having a catalog of recordings of the famous person speaking thousands of words gleaned from speeches, movie appearances, interviews etc. If the word is not in the catalog it underlines it and you pick another.

Carl Castle's voice on your answering machine. Been there, done that. "Wait Wait, Don't Tell Me".

1. You can almost already do this using sound boards

2. There are a few cheap VoIP services where you type in 2 numbers and the service calls both numbers and connects them. If you want to prank your friends just use one of these services so they argue over who called whom.
