#### [ CLI ]

**AWS CLI**  
**To recognize celebrities in an image**  
The following `recognize-celebrities` command recognizes celebrities in the specified image stored in an Amazon S3 bucket.:  

```
aws rekognition recognize-celebrities \
    --image "S3Object={Bucket=MyImageS3Bucket,Name=moviestars.jpg}"
```
Output:
