MovieStarPlanet

**MovieStarPlanet** is a Danish website. The Danish MSP was made in spring 2009. Originally the website was an English teaching site. During the years, many different servers were added. One of them is the Finnish server.

MovieStarPlanet is free, but you can pay real money to become a VIP member.

PetStarPlanet first joined MovieStarPlanet on April 30th, 2011 with her user Lentävä. Her sister made the user Pinkki-fani 100 on the same day.

The theme-based chat room can only be entered by users who have are wearing something from the current theme. In the cinema chat room, you can watch YouTube videos.

### Activities

The activities consist of missions, ratings, Fame Magazine and news. The missions consist of three career paths: MovieStar (Starla Sky), Socialite (Coco) and Fashion Guru (Caesar).

### Friends

Friends is one of the most important features of MovieStarPlanet. Friends can be used in movies, artbooks and similar things. When a friend is online, you see him/her on the bottom of your screen. Every girl has a friend called Pixi Star and every boy has a friend called Zac Sky. Despite being VIP, Pixi and Zac don't count as VIP friends. There are friend limits which are based on the level and VIP status of the movie star.

#### Best friends and girlfriend/boyfriend

Every user can have up to three best friends and one girlfriend or boyfriend. Before an update in 2012, there could be only one best friend.

### Profile

There are two types of profiles: the "small profile" and the "big profile". The small profile allows you to see the movie star's status, best friends and girlfriend/boyfriend. The big profile allows you to see many other things, such as a bio, the user's movies, the user's artbooks and awards. You can access a movie star's room from both profiles.

### Room

Every movie star has a room. Movie stars can decorate their rooms by adding furniture and changing backgrounds. Rooms can get loves. Every room consists of four different sections: the Living Room, the Garden, the Kitchen and the Party Room. A room can have up to 10 pets, and visitors can get StarCoins but petting them. As such, the most popular rooms usually have pets in them.

### Messages

Messages can be used to communicate with other movie stars. Messages are also called chats, but they are nothing like the chat rooms. Originally, messages and the chat between two users were seperate features, but they were combined sometime in late 2011 or 2012.

### Forum

The forum is a feature that allows the users to write something. Only users who are more than level 6 can write something in them. The forum section also includes polls, which can have up to four answers.

### YouTube

In MovieStarPlanet, it is possible to watch YouTube videos. However, not all videos can be watched. It is possible to love videos (the loves are competely seperate from the Likes on YouTube).

### Highscores

Highscores show the top things in many different sections. The most famous sections is the one that shows the movie stars with the most fame. Lentävä and MovieStar MSP are ranked pretty high in the Pets and Rooms section.

### Starcoins, Fame and Diamonds

Starcoins and Fame can be collected by all users. Fame allows you to get to higher levels. Diamonds can only be earned by buying a VIP Pack, winnnig a competition or getting them as a reward if you're an Elite or Star VIP member. You can lose Starcoins or Diamonds but you can't lose fame.

### VIP membership

It's possible to be a VIP member. You can get a VIP membership by buying a VIP Pack or winning a competition. If you have 100 or more VIP friends, you get a celeb status. If you have been a VIP member for more than 90 days, you get a jury status and if you have been a VIP member for more than 180 days, you get a judge status. It's impossible to lose a judge status.

### Piggy Bank

The Piggy Bank can only be opened by VIP members.

### Wheel of fortune

When a movie star logs in, they get to spin the daily wheel of fortune. There is a regular wheel and a VIP wheel. You can win up to 120 starcoins by spinning the regular wheel of fortune and up to 200 starcoins by spinning the VIP wheel. Non-VIP members can only spin the regular wheel and VIP members can spin both wheels. Super VIP members can spin both wheel twice, Elite VIP members can spin them three times and Star VIP members can spin them four times.

### Events

* Halloween 2014
* Easter 2015
* Summer 2015

## Apps

There is a MovieStarPlanet mobile app that allows players to use their moviestars on mobile devides. Besides that, there are some apps based on MovieStarPlanet. However, they're not playable on MovieStarPlanet. The apps include Boonie Rescue, Boonie Planet (previously Boonieverse), Boonie Bounce, Fame City and Star Studio.
