Celebrity Culture Since the Early Research Paper

What is curious about the fans is that they continuously want to be like their idols regardless of the level of decadence which the respective celebrities find themselves in. Reality shows like Big Brother, Cheaters, and others, have become particularly famous especially for the people from the lower classes. Celebrities today often become the main subject of any conversation and people relate to them as if they practically know them personally. (Norton)

Andy Warhole, the 20th century artist, had claimed that in the future all the people would be famous for approximately 15 minutes of their lives. For what is worth, the statement has a little bit of truth in it, if we look deeper into the concept of celebrity-status.(Terry Griemley)
