Fan Culture in the Internet Age: Hype, Craze, and Influence

Things around us are changing very fast. Earlier there was a different type of account. Since the advent of the internet things have changed a lot. Earlier when there was no internet everybody used to depend on newspapers and television for entertainment and even for news there were not that many channels, there were very few channels on television and news was provided through newspapers and other platforms. But since the advent of the internet things have changed a lot and we have seen that most of the celebrities have their accounts on famous social media platforms like Twitter, Instagram and Facebook. Look, it seems like in the old times, only celebrities used to be famous but now a lot of influencers are coming up and becoming very famous and this is a good opportunity for people to generate income.

Often we hear such things, yes, when you become popular, the same thing happens because there are so many celebrities in the world, not everyone likes the same celebrity, everyone has their own different choices, if a particular person likes a celebrity, then he will not praise the other celebrity and if he ever gets a chance to oppose him, he will do it. See, some fans of celebrities are very excited all the time and are ready to do anything for their celebrity and some people also take wrong advantage of this thing. See, nowadays influencers are increasing very fast and this is a good thing too, but see, no one likes anything of the same, many YouTubers are very popular, if I talk about Mr Beast, then he also lives a lot, due to this he is famous and he also has the top subscribers on YouTube, his videos are also very good because many things matter and people also go crazy if he goes to any country.

See, every celebrity has different things going on, and some are more famous worldwide, if I talk about Hollywood actors or actresses, they are famous worldwide because Hollywood movies are probably watched by everyone in the world and nowadays Korean series are also becoming more popular. If I talk about India, then there are Bollywood, Tollywood and many other industries which are becoming famous in this way and see, everyone has their own fan base and many celebrities also have fan base pages, there also the celebrities' photos and other types of pictures are shared and believe me people are very crazy about all these things but I do not understand why this happens.

I am not judging any particular person. Everyone has their own choice. Not everyone can be the same. But some people cross their limits a little too much and are crazy about their celebrity and are ready to do anything. Look, if you like a celebrity, it is a very good thing, but nowadays, the new influencers are no less than celebrities. If you talk about beauty and acting, then they are also very popular. If you see, nowadays there are so many content creators available on YouTube or Instagram and they have a lot of followers. Look, it takes a lot of time for everyone to build their family and when they have fans, they go crazy for them. There are many movies, when they are released, there is a huge crowd of people. I have also seen here that whenever a Hollywood movie is released, people go crazy.

Look, everyone has their own choice and everyone has their own choice, they can do anything. But some people are too crazy and they do anything to get ready on Sunday and some celebrities take the wrong advantage of this, see, often we have seen that the celebrities get ads for a lot of things and also become the face of many products and people buy that product by comparing it with a particular actor and the marketing is done in this way but I feel that if any celebrity knows that the product which he is marketing or for which he is getting X amount of money can be harmful to somebody's health then he should not promote such things, but see, nowadays it does not matter to anybody, everyone just wants to fulfil their own needs.

To be honest, I find all these things quite useless. Many people are crazy about some particular person or actor or actress and they are mad to meet them or buy any of their things and often we have seen that this keeps happening in many places. I feel that yes, craziness is right but it should be within limits and as long as things are within limits, everything remains fine.
