Teenage Pop Star Idolatry

Post by martinem »

Does anyone here know if anything has been written about the frequently seen phenomenon of teenage girls falling in collective trance-like state in sight of their chosen pop-star? Has it been described as a vestige of earlier mentalities, by Jaynes or another?
