HOLLYWOOD, CA, February 18, 2009 — Buzznet, Inc.’s, Celebuzz (www.celebuzz.com), today introduced a new feature which will allow users to zoom in on celebrity photos like never before.

This new capability provides the most detailed celebrity photo experience on the Web and arrives just in time for the most photographed event of the year, the Academy Awards®. Passionate fans can get up close — literally — with their favorite Best Actor or Actress, to see haute couture, hair and make-up at its best.
“When our team first came up with the idea, we were surprised that no major celebrity outlet had developed the feature to date,” said Karina Kogan, GM Celebrity, Buzznet, Inc. “Now that we’ve built the zoom feature, we’re all addicted and I am sure that our users will be too. It’s so satisfying to be able to instantly see a close-up of anything that interests you, whether it’s a pair of designer shoes, a wrinkle, or a simple hand gesture.”
