Celebrità
Una celebrità è una persona ampiamente riconosciuta dalla società. La parola deriva dal latino "celebritas", a sua volta derivante dall'aggettivo "celeber" che significa "famoso, celebrato".La fama è il principale prerequisito per avere uno status di celebrità, ma non sempre è sufficiente. Per esempio, una pubblica figura come un politico, un dirigente industriale ecc. può essere famoso ma non essere una celebrità fino a che qualcun altro attivi l'interesse dei mass media (come ad esempio il direttore di Virgin, Richard Branson che ha tentato di circumnavigare la terra in un pallone aerostatico). Altri tipi di fama, particolarmente quella connessa con l'intrattenimento, garantiscono quasi sicuramente la celebrità persino se la persona deliberatamente evita le attenzioni dei media. Esempi di questo genere riguardano gli attori, i musicisti e gli atleti.
Tradizionalmente, anche i politici ben conosciuti raramente sono descritti come celebrità, ma nell'era della televisione molti divengono de-facto celebri. Le celebrità attualmente sono i protagonisti dei media, specialmente della TV e del cinema. (fonte: Wikipedia)
