It explores how discourses around the famous offspring serve social and cultural functions within the celebrity context and beyond. The increased exposure of children in celebrities’ homes has created kinship ties through a strengthening of parasocial relationships through the performance and illusion of intimacy. Furthermore, this paper aims at understanding the larger implications of discourses around celebrities’ children in the US context. By employing Zygmunt Bauman’s concept of retrotopia, it will be argued that representations of celebrities’ children can be seen as idealised versions of the present which harken back to an imagined, romanticised past. This will be read in light of a current moment that is marked by precarious living conditions and national crises, the COVID-19 pandemic only being the most current one. Moreover, Lauren Berlant’s idea of national sentimentality will be used to show that these representations can also be seen as visions of futurity. It will be demonstrated how narratively and visually embedded illusions of intimacy create a glorified image of childhood and construct childhood and family as a place of comfort, refuge, and thereby futurity.","PeriodicalId":46401,"journal":{"name":"Celebrity Studies","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2022-08-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45698283","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

I argue that child stars, often described as transitioning into adulthood too quickly or staying too long in childhood, challenge damaging social norms of bodily and behavioural development in ways that are sympathetic to disability experience. I use disability studies’ theory of ‘crip time’ and Kathryn Bond Stockton’s notion of the political potential of children ‘growing sideways’ alongside the case study of Patty Duke to demonstrate this productive subversiveness. Duke’s star persona, centred on her portrayal of the young deaf, blind, and uncommunicative Helen Keller in William Gibson’s Broadway play and Arthur Penn’s subsequent film, reveals the parallel developmental non-normativity of disability and child stardom.Through contradictory primary and paratextual evidence surrounding The Miracle Worker and Duke’s stardom, the application of crip time to notions of childhood celebrity, and a contextual understanding of public discourse surrounding childhood during the 1960s, I find that Duke and her characterisation of Keller embody a rejection of conventional understandings of ‘growing up’. Duke’s ambivalent childhood celebrity fractures the constructed ideal of normal development, revealing possibilities for valuable experience beyond the pressures of ableist notions of linear growth.","PeriodicalId":46401,"journal":{"name":"Celebrity Studies","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2022-08-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43407630","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Based on unobtrusive observation and semi-structured interviews, this research explores the entanglement and separation of fiction and reality in three CP fandoms pairing actors Michael Fassbender and James McAvoy, Jun Hu and Ye Liu, and Yunlong Zheng and Ayanga. The findings show that after first analysing and judging the celebrities’ potential real-world queer relationship as ‘not real’, ‘real but over’, and ‘real and ongoing’ (respectively), CP fans produce further fantasied creations and reality-based discussions centred on enjoying their own pleasure, gaining comfort from their celebrities’ experiences, or fulfiling the responsibility to support their celebrities. As fans increasingly emphasise celebrities’ real-world queer relationships, their CP practices not only reinforce fan-celebrity connections on a personal level but financially benefit their celebrities. Unlike the Western RPS genre that features purely fictional homosexual pairings, Chinese CP fandoms show increasingly prevalent reality-focused variations in celebrity consumption, which have been catered to by the entertainment industry and criticised by the Chinese public.","PeriodicalId":46401,"journal":{"name":"Celebrity Studies","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2022-07-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46719612","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, one of the many insights that the field of celebrity studies has brought forward is that, in reality, it is very crowded at the top. Celebrities are never really alone and have hardly any privacy: on a daily basis, they are moulded by producers, pressured by public image advisors, harangued by paparazzi, and closely eyed by uncountable fans and often unrelenting critics. Celebrity culture, at its core, is a culture of surveillance: rarely does the star have a moment alone. Little then, that mental distress is part and parcel of being a individual. beings, of can live the same conditions as such as personality disorders or panic attacks. Yet at the same time, they are confronted with forms of mental distress that are arguably the result of their fame. They struggle with high expectations of global audiences, a profound split between their public and private self, and the pressure of being the keystone in global economic infrastructures built around their work and image. This Forum issue brings together two insightful contributions that explore how celebrities deal with such pressures and how their fans and critics respond to it.","PeriodicalId":46401,"journal":{"name":"Celebrity Studies","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2022-07-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"42973312","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
