This captivating book delves into the intricate relationship between journalism and celebrity,spanning from the dawn of capitalist democracy in the 18th century to the present day. It offers a comprehensive exploration, providing the first account of its kind, unveiling the individuals, locations, platforms, and production practices that shaped the culture of celebrity journalism.

In conclusion, Journalism and Celebrity is a must-read for anyone interested in understanding the dynamic interplay between journalism and celebrity in contemporary society.
