How Stars are crafted
Through every era of modern music, there will always stars that shine bright on the performance stage. The term believed to first be used in the 1930's has now evolved to more than just singers on stage. Superstars are suppose to et examples and act perfect in their own artistic ways. Each star has his/her charm and talent and that's the key of making them special.
All stars weren't born, they were made and crafted and the main idea of being is that:
Stars function as a signifier, they mediate a single specifiable meaning.
- Secondly, according to the analyst Marshall McLuhan; Stars embody "hot media values" which means that stars are the pinnacle of medias such as film and radio. They are the changing point of these types of media with their "good looks" and "god given talent". They are the semiotic of each music company, film studio etc.
- Third, according to Richard Griffiths; A star is made "in depth of the collective unconscious". They are considered "Gods", some were worshipped and looked up for their ability to perform.
