Summary
Celebrity Studies has been a part of my academic work consistently, and one essay a year has been an average. The current volume's intentional and contextual diversity and variety stems from the fact that these essays were written for specific contexts, adhering to the demands made by anthologies, journals and special issues. Hopefully, these same features will reveal numerous shades (more than fifty) of the celebrity.
The essays brought together here represent work that has appeared in the last decade, and since my first foray into the field, in the form of Seeing Stars: Spectacle, Society and Celebrity Culture (2009). They appear here unrevised and unedited from their original published version.
