Gawker Media’s Jezebel.com recently assigned a writer to trail a paparazzo for a day in Manhattan. The intent was to offer their readers “a behind-the-scenes look at the juggernaut of today’s ‘celebrity’ industry.” If you haven’t read it, we recommend you do; the report was oddly fascinating and endlessly interesting.
For even more involved discussion on celebrity, Remy Stern, Editor-in-Chief of Gawker.com, author Elizabeth Currid-Halkett (Starstruck: The Business of Celebrity) and Vanity Fair writer Nancy Jo Sales will be at 92YTribeca on November 11 to really delve into the topic. They’ll begin with the questions: “What exactly is celebrity and how does it function? Why do we care about some people more than others?”
Do you have any questions for the panelists? Submit them here in the comments and we will forward them along for consideration during the Q&A!
