*Description*

'Audience Interactions in Contemporary Celebrity Culture: Approaches 
from across Disciplines' explores current understandings of 
celebrity-audience relationships in the context of digitalization and 
the ongoing celebritization of all aspects of culture and society. 
Focusing on the themes of celebrity and health, celebrity and identity, 
and celebrity and scandal, this volume presents chapters authored by 
experts from across the globe that deal with celebrity-audience 
relationships in different historical, cultural, and social settings, 
tackling the topics from social-psychological, critical/cultural, and 
persuasive perspectives. In doing so, this book highlights the 
broadening of disciplinary, paradigmatic, theoretical, and 
methodological approaches to celebrity studies research. By bringing 
these different approaches together in one book and drawing overall 
conclusions across chapters, the editors and contributors of this volume 
promote and facilitate cross-fertilization in ongoing efforts to grasp 
the fascinating complexity of celebrity-audiences relationships. 
Scholars of media, pop culture, and celebrity studies will find this 
collection particularly useful.
