With Valentine's Day on the way, give your significant other the gift of a personalized message from a famous Minnesotan!

Over the past couple years, I've been hearing quite a bit about the personalized video website Cameo. Touted as "Personalized videos feat. your favorite stars," the website is chock-full of famous actors, athletes, musicians, comedians, social media stars, reality TV stars, political commentators and even animals that you can hire out to create personalized video messages (how animals create personalized messages I'm not sure). From birthday shout outs to work parties, the celebrities on Cameo can be hired out for just about any occasion. Both of my sisters work for major corporations that have utilized Cameo. My youngest sister Annabeth told me they once got a hilarious video from rapper Flavor Flav; they also tried to get television sportscaster Erin Andrews to create a message, but apparently she didn't do corporate videos. Prices for personalized messages from celebrities range from $10 and less to (Santa and other small-timers) to $1,000 and higher (Floyd Mayweather, Sean Payton, Randy Quaid, Caitlyn Jenner).

With Valentine's Day on the way, consider surprising your significant other (or, heck, yourself!) with a personalized message from a famous Minnesotan! Here are some we found listed as available:

5. Sisquo - Singer

A Cameo search of "Minnesota" results almost entirely in Minnesota athletes, so finding any other Minnesota celebrities takes a bit more work. After running through a number of other names like Chris Pratt and Winona Ryder (neither of whom seem to be on Cameo), we struck gold with a positive search result for -- Sisqo! The "Thong Song" singer now resides in Maple Grove and will do a personalized message for just $100...though just don't ask him to sing, cause he won't.

A few other Minnesota celebrities you'll find on Cameo include Fox Sports North commentator Dave Benz, Minnesota Vikings announcer Paul Allen, NFL Pro Bowler CJ Ham, Vikings QB Kirk Cousins, and even Minnesota Wild mascot Nordy, though they're all currently listed as unavailable for cameos.
