曾經看過一個小品，說是一個女孩子跟歌迷會一起去機場給某歌星接機，然后有幸跟歌星握手。于是，這女孩子就半個月不洗手，希望把歌星的觸感保留到最后一刻。類似這樣的瘋狂粉絲舉動平日也能聽到不少，總結起來都叫celebrity worship syndrome（名人崇拜綜合征）。

Celebrity worship syndrome (CWS) is an obsessive-addictive disorder in which a person becomes overly involved with the details of a celebrity's personal life.

名人崇拜綜合征（celebrity worship syndrome）指一個人過度關注某位名人私生活細節而導致迷戀成癮的精神混亂狀態。

There are 3 different aspects to celebrity worship:

名人崇拜表現在三個方面：

Entertainment-social

社會娛樂性

This dimension comprises attitudes that fans are attracted to a favorite celebrity because of their perceived ability to entertain and become a social focus such as “I love to talk with others who admire my favorite celebrity” and “I like watching and hearing about my favorite celebrity when I am with a large group of people”.

這方面的名人崇拜主要表現為粉絲們迷戀某位受歡迎的名人是因為其娛樂大眾和成為社會焦點的能力，多數粉絲的態度為“我喜歡跟其他一些崇拜我偶像的人聊天”、“跟一大群人在一起的時候，我喜歡關注和探聽有關我偶像的消息”。

Intense-personal

個人感情強烈

Intense-personal aspect of celebrity worship reflects intensive and compulsive feelings about the celebrity, akin to the obsessional tendencies of fans often referred to in the literature; for example “I share with my favorite celebrity a special bond that cannot be described in words” and “When something bad happens to my favorite celebrity I feel like it happened to me’”.

這方面的名人崇拜表現為對名人強烈的沖動的感情，跟文學作品中描述的有過度迷戀傾向的粉絲情況類似。例如：“我跟我的偶像之間有一種特殊的聯系，難以言表”以及“如果我的偶像遇到了什么不好的事情，我感覺那事情就像發生在我身上一樣”。

Borderline-pathological

處于發病邊緣

This dimension is typified by uncontrollable behaviors and fantasies regarding scenarios involving their celebrities, such as “I have frequent thoughts about my favorite celebrity, even when I don’t want to” and “My favorite celebrity would immediately come to my rescue if I needed any type of help”.

這方面的名人崇拜多表現為與名人有關、且無法控制的行為和幻覺，比如“我總是會想到我的偶像，我控制不了自己”或者“如果我需要任何幫助，我的偶像會立即出現在我面前的”。
