Matthew Rettenmund, author and blogger for the popular LGBT blog Boy Culture chats with Randy about his two newest books - Encyclopedia Madonnica 2.0 (the ultimate book on the Queen of Pop) and Starf*cker, a memoir chronicling his life into and through the world of pop culture, founding a successful teen magazine and his obsession with celebrities.
The ultimate pop-culture enthusiast, Rettenmund has been obsessed with celebrities ever since he was born. Starf*cker documents Rettenmund's affection --in the case of Madonna, it's pure mania--for movie, television, and music personalities. From his years as a star-obsessed gayby to his contradictory careers in and as a teen-mag editor (names will be named), Rettenmund details and deconstructs his--and our--passion for celebrity.
Matthew talks on his years working on a teen fan magazine - dealing with teen and young stars like Zac Efron and boy bands.
Plus, we also talk about the approach and art of blogging.
