This text studies the relationship between women, ageing, and celebrity. Focusing on an array of case studies and star/celebrity images, it examines the powerful, contradictory, and sometimes celebratory ways in which celebrity culture offers a crucial site for the contemporary and historical construction of discourses on ageing femininities.
