Hello, Have any scholars done or know about research on stans, or "the overzealous fans and supporters"? Most often it is used with celebrities such as Rihanna and Beyonce. If so, could you please send me any links related to this idea or any research on extreme fans of a brand, celebrity or team? Many Thanks, Natalie ---------------------------------------------- Natalie T. J.
