Among the millions of clips uploaded to Instagram since the app added its video features on Thursday is a call-to-action snippet from comedian Louie Anderson.
Anderson — who created the animated Life with Louie, hosted the revived Family Feud, and most recently, competed on ABC's reality show Splash — is using Instagram video to find an opening act for his Las Vegas stint of standup comedy shows.
People who submit an Instagram video with hashtag #open4louie will be eligible to become his opener. Anderson's social team told Mashable that Anderson plans to pick one or more opening acts for his Vegas shows, which start July 10 at the Plaza Hotel and Casino.
Fellow comedian and late-night host Jimmy Fallon also turned to Instagram video to crowdsource a new portion of his show, Late Night With Jimmy Fallon.
Other celebrities are already flexing the capabilities of Instagram video, too, including Madonna (dancing), Justin Bieber (shirtless), LeBron James (talking), Ryan Seacrest (studio) and Wiz Khalifa (rapping).
