If you thought all these celebrities with BlackBerry smartphone paparazzi pictures were creepy, this one takes it to the next level.  Here we see Kim Kardashian walking out somewhere, and her BlackBerry Bold 9900 screen is facing the camera.  As seen above, her Bold 9900 screen is very visible and displays Google alerts on it – of herself!

So what’s this mean exactly? She’s getting Google Alerts every time something is published with her name on the web.  So that’s what she does all day on her BlackBerry- read all about herself.  Nice.

It’s been a while since we adding some editions to our BlackBerry Celebrities section, so here’s one highlighting some famous folks who stayed loyal to the Berry brand and picked up a Bold 9900.  Above (from left to right) we have Leonardo DiCaprio, Cristiano Ronaldo, and Kim Kardashian.  More photos after the jump!

Last time around we saw the BlackBerry PlayBook featured in Pitbull’s music video.  By now it’s no surprise that BlackBerry smartphones make way to celebrities and music videos.  Now we see Jennifer Lopez clearly using the BlackBerry Bold 9900 (no carrier branding).  She is looking at an old photo of herself and some she misses, hence the purpose of the song I guess? Any way, enjoy the quick few second of Bold action (it’s in the beginning).  Video after the jump.

“All things Apple, all things Android, and the berry of my people, the BlackBerry.”  That’s what Bill Cosby has to say when it comes to platforms supported for his just launched mobile application.  Every celebrity has an application these days, even Bill Cosby.  His application in fact supports iPhone, Android, and BlackBerry.  The application is free to download using the link below.  The Bill Cosby application is basically a fan app where you can connect with Bill and get his latest update and even be informed when and if he’s in town.  Full press release after the jump!

We haven’t done BlackBerry Celebrities in a while, but this is a really crisp picture I found over at the one and only BlackBerry Celebrity Sightings.  This one shows Mario Lopez and Kim Kardashian looking at a BlackBerry.  It appears to be a BlackBerry Torch 9800 if I’m not mistaken, and Lopez seems to be the owner of the device showing Kim something interesting.

I’ve seen Paris Hilton with the BlackBerry Bold 9000, Bold 9700, and even the Torch.  Why oh why does she have a BlackBerry Curve 3G now? It could be the Curve 3G or the older 8500 series, not so sure.  I know it’s one or the other since we only see the camera in the back with no flash, and we notice the little gap for the speaker in the center top right underneath the play/pause button located on the top of the Curve.

We know that Drake is a BlackBerry user and uses them to write his music on.  What we didn’t know (and I’m sure some of you didn’t either) is that his freestyles that we hear such as this one could very well be “pre-styles.”  In this video, we see him reading lyrics off a BlackBerry (I’m gonna say its a Bold 9000) and rapping from it.  This was for HOT 97, a radio station in New York and everyone hearing it on the air would take it as a freestyle not knowing he’s got a database of rhymes in front of his face.  Boo.

It’s not that serious, but I went out last night to finally see Due Date starring Robert Downey Jr. and Zach Galifianakis.  I noticed that Robert Downey Jr. took out his BlackBerry one too many times in the movie.  It wasn’t no Torch or Style – but a BlackBerry Bold 9000!  It’s not that retro of a device, and it’s definitely counted as one of my favorite BlackBerry devices.

The BlackBerry Bold 9000 was similar in size to the BlackBerry 8800 series and was so comfortable to hold and use.  The huge display screen, large keys, and full leather back really made the phone awesome.  I just wish RIM would take the Bold family back in that direction instead of shrinking them!

The BlackBerry Torch 9800 is still new and upcoming since AT&T launched it last month.  Of course celebrities got their hands on it at BlackBerry launch events.  As you all know, the BlackBerry Bold 9700 became the most popular device to use among celebrities for a while.  Before that, it was the Curve 8900 and Bold 9000.  So now that the Torch is in town, do you think celebrities are all starting to migrate to it or will they stick to their savvy Bold 9700′s which are strictly QWERTY with no touch screen.

Just yesterday we showed you the red carpet launch party for the BlackBerry Torch 9800 and what celebrities had to say about the device.  What we didn’t see was Paris Hilton who has been known for using a BlackBerry for quite some time now.  She’s been spotted using a white BlackBerry Bold 9000 frequently, but the photos could be old as she most likely went for a Bold 9700 after (perhaps in white as well).  Any way, here she poses by what looks like to be a show case for her shoes collection sporting her new BlackBerry Torch 9800.  This brings me back to my question yesterday as to whether or not the Torch 9800 will take place of the Bold 9700 in the celebrity world.  It’s too early and we haven’t seen enough paparazzi shots with the Torch yet, but the Bold 9700 seems to be the preferred device in Hollywood.
