Are you famous: Facebook New Accounts Verification Feature will judge

Did a celebrity just send you a friend request or are you friend with one? Now you can know for sure, thanks to a new Facebook feature: Verified Pages. 
Are you a celebrity with a large online audience? Soon, Facebook’s verification feature will determine just how famous you are. Facebook announced on Wednesday that it’s rolling out a new verification feature.
Much like verified accounts on Twitter, verified Facebook pages will now display a small blue check mark beside their owner's name on the social network. The check mark will also appear beside the individual’s name in search results, as well as anywhere else on Facebook where it appears.
Facebook's verified status won't be offered to everyone. Verified accounts will be specifically available to public figures with large audiences, namely, celebrities, government officials, popular brands and some journalists.


What do you think about the new feature? Are you happy Facebook is verifying the authenticity of some accounts? Let us know your thoughts in the comments.
