How do!
New game.
You get to hybridise two animals, and give them a single trait of a single celebrity. Then describe it.
Me? Stealing from Fact Fiend? The Turbogorilla. A Gorilla’s strength with the speed of a Cheetah.
The Turbogorilla’s celebrity trait is Mick Jagger’s stage confidence. Because not only is it blurring you fast, and murderously strong, but will totally style on you whilst rending you limb from limb.
Right. You go now. Go nuts!

What even is this concept?! It's so insane, I love it.
Ok, ok. Let's tryyyy...
The Cockyphant! It's a full-size elephant, with blue-green skin and a massive, pachyderm-sized peacock's tail, which it uses as peacocks do.
Its celebrity trait is Elton John's singing voice.

Ok, the Vinecine, half bovine, half porcine.
it would have the flesh of both creatures in it so you could get beef, ham, sausage and bacon from one animal. This would make farming more efficient as we'd no longer need to have separate pig and cow farming.
As to the trait of one celebrity, i won't name the celeb. I' just say i'd give it the personality of a famous person who is so hated and hateful, so repugnant and repulsive, that few people would have problems with killing these creatures for food. it would be an animal even PETA and vegans could eat without guilt.
Plus the celeb i'm thinking of is already more swine than man so the genetics shouldn't be too hard.

Not Leto, Cheeto.
The octog, a frog octopus hybrid that had 8 tongues. Makes him much faster at catching flies.
I'd give it the appetite of rush limbaugh to really help redue the fly population.
