Decolonizing the field of celebrity studies by bringing together scholars from across Asia, this book explores the interplay of celebrity and politics across national and disciplinary boundaries from China to India.
With chapters written by interdisciplinary scholars from across Asia, this book decolonizes the field of Celebrity Studies through an Asia-centric approach to understanding stardom. Exploring national and transnational contexts, the book examines stars such as Bollywood star Shah Rukh Khan, Jackie Chan, South Korea’s Park Shin-hye and BTS among others, as well as phenomena such as internet celebrity couples, livestreamers and K-Pop. Decolonizing Asian Celebrity examines how a celebrity culture that crosses borders helps shape transnational social and political life across the continent, from China and India, to South Korea, Vietnam and the Philippines.
