MEGADETH’s Dave Mustaine has joined Cameo, the US video sharing website on which celebrities make themselves available to record personalised video messages for fans, in exchange for cold, hard cash. 

 
For a mere £187.50, Mr Mustaine is at your service, ready to spout whatever words you might wish to put into his mouth.
 
Announcing his arrival on the platform, Mustaine says: “Hey, I’m Dave Mustaine and I’d like to invite you to have me send a personalised greeting from Cameo for you to your friends.”
 
I can say ‘Happy Birthday,’ ‘Happy Anniversary,’ ‘Merry Christmas,’ ‘Happy Hanukkah’ — whatever. Or my personal favourite is, like, ‘F—.’ No, we won’t get into that here. But I will tell you that if you do have me do a Cameo for you, a portion of the proceeds will go to charities that I support.”
 
More than 30,000 ‘celebrities’ are already on Cameo, including, at the time of writing, 4874 musicians. Ever wanted to pay The Darkness’ Justin Hawkins (£56.25), Slayer/Exodus guitarist Gary Holt (£18.75), Max Cavalera (£37.50) or Alice Cooper (£225) to speak to you, or a close personal friend? Cameo can make this happen. For £375 you can have Tommy Lee holler at you, while a mere £22.50 will bag you words from The Jesus Lizard’s frontman David Yow
 
What a time to be alive. 
 
At present, Mustaine’s former MEGADETH colleague David Ellefson is not on the platform, incidentally.
