The Fair Use Doctrine permits the press/media to use copyrighted material for news reporting, criticism, and commenting.
You would need to receive licensing from both the photographer of the celebrity, and the photographer of the body which you intend to place the celebrity's face over.
Now whether or not you're violating the celebrity's right of publicity is a whole other matter. Many famous people hold a property right over their image, and you could be accused of missapropriation of their right of publicity.
