“I highly recommend Ellis Cashmore for his ground-breaking publication, Celebrity Culture (Routledge). In its 3rd edition, the book equips students, researchers, and the public with urgent insights on fame. In radically pushing the boundaries of normative understandings around 21st-century celebrities, Cashmore identifies ironies, illusions, and ideological dilemmas of stardom. He leaves readers with a reality check and promises for what was once genius and unique – talent in the quest for authenticity.”
– Samita Nandy, Centre for Media and Celebrity Studies (CMCS)
