Groupies

Groupies are fans who seek closer connections with musicians or celebrities, often by accompanying them on tours or socializing with them frequently. They may be motivated by admiration, attraction, or a desire for proximity to fame and success. While some engage in genuine fandom, others may pursue relationships with celebrities for personal recognition or excitement. The term is historically associated with the music industry, especially during the 1960s and 1970s, but the concept can apply to any public figure. Groupies are a recognized aspect of celebrity culture, reflecting the allure and complex dynamics between fans and performers.
