My focus: Star Power: Why so many of us buy cosmetics to 'get the London look' ‘I touched you at the sound check: you’re just the same as I am, but what makes these people feel happy, leads us headlong into harm’ this is a famous quote from the infamous singer song-writer Morrissey, described by NME is ‘one of the most influential artists ever’. This one man has inspired thousands of musicians and has set the standard for indie music, worldwide. In this case, Morrissey’s celebrity status has made a positive impact on his fan-base, even though his private life might not be so admirable, he has been awarded elitism from the masses because of his musical skills.

The stark contrasts between each of these groups connotes that a celebrity is hard to explain. And do they even need explaining? Not in the post-modern era were living in today; they’re quite simply just another part of society, at least in my opinion. Richard Dyer documented that ‘stars articulate what it is to be human in contemporary society’ and this seems so in the case of fan-culture and star worship my peer group are subconsciously...
