"It's no secret that fans everywhere are fascinated with what celebrities are really like in their everyday lives," said Kate Casey, the Founder of Top Stalker and a self-described celebrity PR debunker.

Top Stalker has also published a free iPhone application that lets users browse the most popular photos from the community, updated in real-time, and to easily post a photo you just captured with your iPhone. The free Top Stalker iPhone application is now available in the Apple App Store.
After just a few months in private beta, the Top Stalker website has already amassed an impressive database with photos of hundreds of popular celebrities, including: Angelina Jolie, Brad Pitt, Britney Spears, Demi Moore, Jessica Simpson, Kim Kardashian, Lady Gaga, Leonardo DiCaprio, Nicole "Snooki" Polizzi, Paris Hilton, Sean "Diddy" Combs, Zac Efron and hundreds more.
