The celebrity culture is one of the most important phenomenon in the contemporary western societies. This culture operates in all the main social areas: spectacle, media, sport, arts, politics, cooking, etc. In this essay I take for granted the notion that celebrity is an appropriate object of study for sociology and I will offer a survey of the growing field of the sociology of celebrity. My review of the field will be broad but not necessarily exhaustive. After a brief historical foray, I will identify current trends in the field of sociology of celebrity and attempt to characterize the developing literature in ways that will be useful to interested scholars. Finally, I will suggest some new directions for scholars working in the field in the coming years.
