    Key points to keep i mind
    1. domain must have celebrity's name on it
    2. Theme revolves around celebrity (so header design of course) and.. they usually have monochromatic color schemes
    3. A bio, filmography, gallery is a must.
    4. Adsense blending must not have images neat it.. but should have good colors that match the template exactly.

    Photos, a bio, and a message board should be included. If it's a celebrity type site then you need photos. I would think that is #1 to include. If you're making a website for a band or something a message board is big. It creates a community and actually can keep people coming back.

    Make sure you blend your ads into the site and don't overload it with ads. It will turn people off.

    Hosting
    asmallorange.com are good if you're new to stuff. They've got a helpful support team and you can get pretty cheap hosting. They let you pay with paypal as well if you need that.

    Domains
    You definately need a domain. Make sure that the persons name is in the domain.

    namecheap.com oare good for domains. $8.88 per domain and they accept paypal like ASO.
