From the earliest flickering movies, it's been a love/hate relationship between a parade of personalities and the media that created them. Fame is a twentieth century phenomenon that forever fused reality with image. Clive James traces the evolution of fame in art, politics, science and sport, in combination with a dazzling assortment of classic performances. An intimate view of the giants of the first mass media century and the forces that created them, as revealed through Clive James' humor and insight into the strange chemistry that makes someone larger than life.

Fame is the quality of being well-known and in the public eye. Celebrities are famous by definition.

Celebrity is a condition of fame and broad public recognition of an individual or group, or occasionally a character or animal, as a result of the attention given to them by mass media. A person may attain a celebrity status from having great wealth, their participation in sports or the entertainment industry, their position as a political figure, or even from their connection to another celebrity. 'Celebrity' usually implies a favorable public image, as opposed to the neutrals 'famous' or 'notable', or the negatives 'infamous' and 'notorious'.
