In The Wild

Unpacking toxic fandom culture with Cindy Noir ✨


Listen Later

Fandom can bring people together—but what happens when admiration for a celebrity turns into obsession? In this episode of In the Wild, we sit down with AU alum and content creator Cindy Noir to explore the intense world of celebrity super fandoms.


We unpack the psychological and social forces that drive some fans to engage in online bullying, doxxing, and even criminal behavior—all in the name of their favorite stars. From the rise of stan culture to the real-world consequences of extreme devotion, this episode dives deep into the blurred lines between healthy admiration and harmful fanaticism, and what it means for society today.
