I Love You Celeste is a solo girl site although it has a different feel to it than what you get from most amateur girls. She is part of The Hardcore Network which has a couple other "I Love You" solo model sites plus many more popular niches. The guest tour showcases what Celeste's site is all about which is high resolution content of solo and girl/girl performances. Content quality is more the focus in lieu of things like lots of personal interaction with members.
The Goods:
- Solo, Girl/Girl, & Candid Shoots. Celeste is a hot blonde chick who has shoots including solo play with toys and girl/girl hardcore. She also has candid real-life style shoots which is the kind of stuff that's good to see from a solo girl site. It's a nice variety including most types of action without boy/girl.
- Great Hi-Res Vids, Nice Pics Too. The video quality is the shining star of Celeste's site. They are very high-resolution WMV files with medium and low quality options as well. Content quality like this is unusual for a solo girl site so it's a nice surprise.
- Network Access Included. The Hardcore Network has a few other solo girl sites and other niche sites with video and picture content. Taking into account the price tag and size of Celeste's collection it's important that the network is thrown in to offset those.
The Bads:
- Not a Big Site, Avg Updates. There are only a little over a couple dozen video shoots and the number of picture galleries is smaller than that. A small amount of update info is provided which shows some inconsistent additions. Sometimes there are updates every few days and other times it's a couple weeks between updates.
- Little Interaction, Short Blog. This is kind of the trade off for the high quality content. However, there is a journal for interaction with entries that are several paragraphs long. The rate of entries is not that great though at around one or two per month.
- High Monthly Price. As I mentioned in my "Network Access Included" Good point the price is quite high at $34.90/mo. It's probably a good idea to tour the network sites as well as Celeste's to see if the total product is what you're looking for.
Conclusion:
Solo model sites typically don't have the type of set-up that Celeste has so that does make her stand out from the crowd. High-Def videos, candid shoots, and network access are clearly the best selling points. Together those make up a respectable foundation and it's the consistency in updates, growth, and journal interaction that hold the site back.

I Love You Celeste remains part of The Hardcore Network and her site has basically held steady since the initial review we did. The update track record is at two new episodes per month (although sometimes it's just one) so growth has taken place although the overall size of the site is roughly the same. Celeste has an average amount of content for an individual girl. Her blog hasn't have any entries beyond Feb '08 which means the little interaction that there was has been reduced. She does have a link to her weekly AmateurCamz shows but I only found one recent clip of past shows and she wasn't on the upcoming schedule. The best way to assess Celeste's site is as a solo girl video collection with high video quality. The included network is also something to still take into consideration since there are other solo girls and niche sites in the mix there.
Score remains at 76.5.

Review: 06-25-09 |
This is TBP’s third look at I Love You Celeste and in a macro sense the Good and Bad points are not going to change however there are a couple of items of note to report on. Right away I see the video options have been upgraded a bit with the addition of Flash streaming and MP4 full-movie files in addition to the already established WMV full-files. Those are helpful additional options and they’re available on all the episodes going back to the start of the collection. On the negative side the updates seem to have slowed a lot as our TBP content count managers note just a couple of updates in the past year. Her journal does have some semi-recent entries at a pace of about one per month. The basics remain Celeste being a hot blonde performer with solo and hardcore performances plus the included Hardcore Network collection of sites.
Score increased from 76.5 to 77.0.
