Resumo: The singer and composer Raul Seixas has a wide and diverse public named “raulseixistas”. The raulseixistas not only admire the rock singer but transform their lives, by establishing relationship with friends, getting apart from others and creating their own social networks, very specifically articulated. In order to understand the experiences of being a fan and the process of identification with the idol, we analyzed three hundred letters randomly picked amongst those ones sent to the fan club Raul Rock Club. The stories in the letters allowed us to make an interpretation about the relationship with the idol and the subjectivity relation based on admired and admirer. Discussing this relation provides some support on the reflection about celebrity creation and idolatry, phenomena sufficiently visible in the contemporary society.

Estes não apenas admiram um cantor de rock, mas transformam suas vidas, estabelecem relações com seus pares, distanciam-se de outros e criam sociabilidades próprias, articulando-se no tecido social de uma forma específica. Para compreender a experiência de ser fã e o processo de identificação com o ídolo foram analisadas trezentas cartas sorteadas dentre as enviadas ao fã-clube que homenageia o cantor: Raul Rock Club. Os relatos encontrados nas cartas possibilitaram uma interpretação acerca da produção subjetiva baseada na relação com um outro – o ídolo – construído enquanto tal na relação entre admiradores e admirados, necessariamente assimétrica. Discutir sobre essa relação auxilia na reflexão sobre a produção de celebridades e a idolatria, fenômenos de dimensões e consequências bastante visíveis na contemporaneidade.FCL-UNESP Laboratório Editorial2011-04-06info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://periodicos.fclar.unesp.br/estudos/article/view/3896Estudos de Sociologia; v. 16 n. 30 (2011): Dossiê: crítica da comunicação e política na sociedade do espetáculo1982-47181414-0144reponame:Estudos de Sociologiainstname:Universidade Estadual Paulista (UNESP)instacron:UNESPporhttps://periodicos.fclar.unesp.br/estudos/article/view/3896/3577Copyright (c) 2011 Estudos de Sociologiainfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessAbonizio, Juliana2021-05-12T13:47:00Zoai:ojs.pkp.sfu.ca:article/3896Revistahttp://seer.fclar.unesp.br/estudosPUBhttp://seer.fclar.unesp.br/estudos/oaistraud.fclar@unesp.br||estudosdesociologia@fclar.unesp.br||maria.jardim@unesp.br1982-47181414-0144opendoar:2021-05-12T13:47Estudos de Sociologia - Universidade Estadual Paulista (UNESP)false
