Produktbeschreibung
Questioning what "makes" a celebrity and how celebrity is controlled, dispersed and received are aspects branching out of (Extra)Ordinary's debate over celebrities as ordinary/extraordinary. Jade Alexander and Katarzyna Bronk, together with the authors whose chapters make up this inter-disciplinary discussion, not only utilise the existing research on celebrity and fandom, but they also go beyond the often-quoted theorists to engage in multidirectional analyses of what it means to be a celebrity, and what influence they have on the consuming public.
