Hey /lit/, this may be the wrong board, but I've been thinking a lot about celebrity recently because I'm staying with my friend and his room is covered in posters of famous artists and bands.

I'm wondering if any of you have come across any books that touch on the (very) contemporary understanding of celebrity that has come into play in the past 20-30 years. By this I mean the worship and (essentially) idolatry that most people in society perpetrate through their experience of celebrities.

I'm not sure if you all will get what i mean by this--I'm pretty drunk and high on coke, but I mean, why not ask?
