is the trend going for celebrity launching their own clothing line? Below are the recent examples I have seen:

miley cyrus clothing line
Selena Gomez clothing line
new moon clothing line

Why is this happening? I have a common of conjunctions?

First, it is way for celebrities to diversify their earnings. Artists nowadays cannot depend on a source of income anymore now as majority of revenue from cinema ticket and music albums have decline. Clothing line can add on as one of their additional source of revenue.

Second, clothing line can allow artist to transit from entertainment industry to fashion industry. Most fame are short term so they have to find another way to sustain their career after their fame is gone.

Make sense?
