Rod Blagojevich joins app where people can pay for personalized video message

Former Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich (D) joined an app where people can pay for personalized video messages after President Trump commuted his sentence on corruption charges earlier this month. 

Blagojevich is on the app Cameo offering personal messages for $100. 

“Hey it’s Rob Blagojevich. I’m very excited to connect with you on Cameo. If you want a birthday greeting, an anniversary greeting, motivation or any other kind of shoutout, I can’t wait to hear from you,” the former lawmaker said on his account

The app features a variety of celebrities and personalities that offer personalized messages for fans upon request. 

Former Trump White House press secretary Sean Spicer also has an account on the app, as does former Trump administration communications director Anthony Scaramucci, former Trump aide Omarosa Manigault and former Trump campaign manager Corey Lewandowski. 

Trump commuted Blagojevich’s sentence earlier this month. He called the Blagojevich’s 14-year sentence “ridiculous” 

“He served eight years in jail, a long time. He seems like a very nice person — don’t know him,” Trump said.
