Write For Us

WatchThis is always looking for new voices. If you have something interesting to say about entertainment, celebrity culture, lifestyle, wellness, or the viral moments shaping the internet right now, we want to read your pitch.

What We Publish

We are looking for writers who can:

  • Cover entertainment and celebrity stories with a distinctive voice — not wire-service summaries, but pieces that have a take.
  • Report on pop-culture phenomena with enough depth to explain why something matters, not just that it happened.
  • Write about lifestyle and wellness in a way that respects readers without talking down to them.
  • Break news, dig into developing stories, or find the angles other publications are missing.
  • Turn viral moments into pieces that hold up a week or a month later, not just on the afternoon they trend.

What We Are Not Looking For

  • Press-release rewrites.
  • Pieces that are mostly quotes from other articles with a few sentences of connective tissue.
  • Celebrity hagiography or celebrity hit-jobs — we like writers who are fair.
  • Generic listicles with no reporting or original perspective.
  • AI-generated content. We can tell. So can readers.

How to Pitch

Send an email to newslegalcollections@gmail.com with:

  1. A subject line starting with PITCH: followed by a short description of the piece.
  2. A brief bio — where you have written before, what beats you know, what you bring to a story.
  3. Two or three links to pieces you have written (published or unpublished, both are fine).
  4. The pitch itself: what is the story, what is the angle, why does it matter, and why should WatchThis be the outlet that runs it.

We read every pitch. If we want to move forward, you will hear back within a couple of weeks. If we pass, you may not hear back at all — not because we do not respect your work, but because the volume makes it impossible. A pass from us does not mean the piece will not find the right home somewhere else, and we encourage you to shop it around.

Rates and Terms

We pay for published work. Rates vary by length, complexity, and the amount of original reporting involved. We will discuss payment when we accept a pitch, and we do not ask anyone to write on spec. We own first publication rights; after that, rights revert to the writer.

We look forward to reading your pitch.
