When we turn on our TV’s, it is very likely that we come across one. Indeed, over the past decades, talk shows have become an indispensible part of the television landscape. From an interactional perspective, they are a very intriguing phenomenon. Although television talk shows are evidently set in an institutional setting, the talk in these shows is less regulated and more spontaneous than is the case for other interactional activities which are typically set in a television studio, e.g. political debates and news interviews. The interaction in talk shows shares some of the traits of everyday conversation that are not present in other types of broadcast talk such as debates or news interviews. My focus, then, is on the interactional course of two television talk shows and, in particular, on the role of the host. By examining the individual interactional characteristics of the selected hosts, I would like to find out what type of host they are and how the distinct nature of talk show interaction is oriented to by the host’s way of interacting. I will concentrate on talk shows in English, but from an international perspective. I will use video data from both a British and an American talk show. The selected talk shows are The Jonathan Ross Show and The Tonight Show with Jay Leno. These talk shows are selected on the basis of the talk show hosts and the type of talk show. Both shows are evening celebrity talk shows and feature very popular hosts. I opt for an international

  • Fame Attack : the Inflation of Celebrity and Its Consequences
    Rojek, Chris. "The Icarus Complex." Fame Attack: The Inflation of Celebrity and Its Consequences. London: Bloomsbury Academic, 2012. 142–160. Bloomsbury Collections. Web. 1 Oct. 2021. <http://dx.doi.org/10.5040/9781849661386.ch-009>. Downloaded from Bloomsbury Collections, www.bloomsburycollections.com, 1 October 2021, 16:03 UTC. Copyright © Chris Rojek 2012. You may share this work for non-commercial purposes only, provided you give attribution to the copyright holder and the publisher, and provide a link to the Creative Commons licence. 9 The Icarus Complex he myth of Icarus is the most powerful Ancient Greek parable of hubris. In a bid to escape exile in Crete, Icarus uses wings made from wax and feathers made by his father, the Athenian master craftsman Daedalus. But the sin of hubris causes him to pay no heed to his father’s warnings. He fl ies too close to the sun, so burning his wings, and falls into the Tsea and drowns. The parable is often used to highlight the perils of pride and the reckless, impulsive behaviour that it fosters. The frontier nature of celebrity culture perpetuates and enlarges narcissistic characteristics in stars and stargazers. Impulsive behaviour and recklessness are commonplace. They fi gure prominently in the entertainment pages and gossip columns of newspapers and magazines, prompting commentators to conjecture about the contagious effects of celebrity culture upon personal health and the social fabric. Do celebrities sometimes get too big for their boots and get involved in social and political issues that are beyond their competence? Can one posit an Icarus complex in some types of celebrity behaviour? This chapter addresses these questions by examining celanthropy and its discontents (notably Madonna’s controversial adoption of two Malawi children); celebrity health advice (Tom Cruise and Scientology); and celebrity pranks (the Sachsgate phone calls involving Russell Brand and Jonathan Ross).

  • Brits Choose Holiday Partners for Sun, Sand, And… a Laugh Submitted By: Pr-Sending-Enterprises Friday, 15 September 2006
    Brits choose holiday partners for sun, sand, and… a laugh Submitted by: pr-sending-enterprises Friday, 15 September 2006 British holidaymakers would pick fun over glamour when it comes to holiday companions according to research by Barclays Insurance (http://www.barclays.co.uk/insurance). Northern comedian Peter Kay has topped the list of celebrities Brits would most like to go on holiday with, relegating homegrown starlet Keira Knightley and Hollywood heart throb George Clooney to second and third places. Elsewhere in the list, Kylie Minogue and Angelina Jolie are the only other non-Brits in a top ten dominated by British personalities. Whilst good looks and the fun factor clearly play an important part when choosing Britain’s favourite holiday companion it seems that most people remain loyal to their local heroes – Scots favoured Sean Connery whilst the North of England was the most supportive of Peter Kay. Unsurprisingly, good-looking and successful members of the opposite sex made up the top ideal holiday companions for both male and female respondents with the exception of all-round favourite Peter Kay who appeared second in the lists for both sexes. However it appears that a large number of male holidaymakers would prefer to take a fellow fella with them on their travels with a total of four males featuring in their top ten whilst the only woman that females would consider holidaying with is Davina McCall. Across the age groups, Big Brother presenter Dermot O’Leary was the most popular companion amongst the under 30s but over 50s would prefer to share a sunlounger with Joanna Lumley.

    X FACTOR JUDGE CHERYL COLE AND KYLIE MINOGUE MOST POWERFUL CELEBRITIES IN BRITAIN HIGHLIGHTS RESEARCH Submitted by: Eureka Communications Wednesday, 31 March 2010 31st March 2010, London, UK – Pop star Kylie Minogue and X-Factor judge Cheryl Cole were named the most powerful celebrities in Britain today in Millward Brown’s latest celebrity and brand (Cebra) research . The research, which interviewed 2000 consumers about 100 celebrities and 100 brands, will be used by marketers to identify celebrity and brand partnerships with the greatest marketplace potential. The 10 most powerful UK celebrities were: 1)Kylie Minogue 2)Cheryl Cole 3)David Beckham 4)Ant & Dec 5)Joanna Lumley 6)Terry Wogan 7)Jamie Oliver 8)George Clooney 9)Sean Connery 10)Helen Mirren “Kylie is widely accepted as an adopted Brit. People know her, like her and she is surrounded by positive buzz,” says Mark Husak, Head of Millward Brown’s UK Media Practice. Cheryl’s mix of exciting, endearing and engaging traits seems to be a winning combination.” Cheryl Cole is 2nd in the ranking and has the highest positive Buzz score (80 percent positive) despite the negative media coverage that has surrounded her in the past. Cheryl is seen as very Playful, Sympathetic and Outgoing but least Reserved, Calm and Laid Back. She is well matched to Coca Cola and New Look. Kylie’s personality matches well with L’Oreal, Yahoo, Cadbury and Lucozade. Research highlights: •US star George Clooney (8th in the ranking) is the only other non-Brit to appear in the Top10. Like Kylie, he is well liked with no negative publicity.

    Brand and the BBC – the full expletive-riddled truth blogs.lse.ac.uk/polis/2008/11/05/brand-and-the-bbc-the-full-expletive-riddled-truth/ 2008-11-5 Was it a storm in a tea-cup or a symbol of a wider malaise at the BBC? Well Polis has got the full, expletive-riddled story from a senior BBC figure. Caroline Thomson is the BBC’s Chief Operating Officer, second only in importance at the corporation to her namesake, Mark. In a speech to Polis she gave a lengthy and carolinethomson.jpg candid narrative of the whole Brand/Ross prank phone call saga. In it she makes a staunch defence of the BBC’s actions and calls on the corporation to continue taking risk. But she recognised in her speech, and the subsequent exchange we had, that it does raise a wider question: Is the BBC too keen to do too much instead of focusing on what it does best. Here is her speech which I think is well worth reading in full – it will also go up on the main Polis website. The BBC: The Challenge to Appeal to All Audiences Caroline Thomson, Chief Operating Officer, BBC POLIS Media Leadership Dialogues London School of Economics, Tuesday 4 November What a week – when I agreed to do this talk I thought I would focus on transforming the BBC – getting it to be a networked organisation, representing the whole of the UK with London as its hub, not its dominant force, with our plans for our new base in the Manchester region as the central theme.
