Celebrities on Flickr.

Has Flickr been embraced by any celebrities in the way Twitter has?

Proper celebrities from say, internationally acclaimed indie rock bands upwards. Who are actively using Flickr. I found a sparse, official Mandy Moore account but not much else.

I don't know if this counts as "celebrity," but White House photographer Pete Souza maintains an official Flickr account full of candid photos of President Obama and other high-ranking folks in the midst of all kinds of behind-the-scenes political stuff.

Best answer: This wouldn't count if you really just mean present tense ("Who are actively using Flickr"), but Imogen Heap was posting photos back in 2006. I like the shot of her cooking asparagus.

Best answer: Mia Farrow - she was still posting in 2010, mostly her travels as a UN Ambassador, I think.

Best answer: British comedian Dave Gorman has a pretty neat Flickr stream and a good eye for photography. I really like his collection of pictures that use London street-level billboards as background (example).
