CFP: Childhood and Celebrity

Please see this CFP from John Mercer and Jane O´Connor:

Jane O’Connor and John Mercer are editing a collection of essays for an anthology on Childhood and Celebrity. There is a final space in the collection that we are hoping to fill with an essay on the subject of children or teenage bloggers/ vloggers/ youtube celebrities. Could any colleagues who are researching in this area, would like to submit an essay on this subject or could recommend a potential author please let Jane or John know via email.
Thanks.
