Cursed Objects

Celeb CASH-IN!! Unofficial Fearne Cotton biography

07 Feb 2022

Description

Celebrity gloss, celebrity GOSS! How do you write a 260-page biography of a young TV presenter who you've never met and never interviewed, and hasn't ever done anything but be on TV? Padding! Baffling, bizarre digressions and weird AF padding. But you've gotta just churn it out in time for Xmas. Dan and Kasia discuss the cash-in tat produced around 2000s celebrity pop culture, the grim misogyny of that decade, Topshop Metallica T-shirts, 'cool' and 'phoneys', 9/11, TMZ, Closer, Heat and Perez Hilton, and how capitalism tries to imbue mundane individuals with great meaning to sell us crap we don't need.   If you're enjoying Cursed Objects, please support our Patreon - and get access to bonus eps and extra content: patreon.com/cursedobjects.
