It's the British tabloid media visualised, Margaret.
They bring you to the top as long as you have something to offer (the cheeky cockney gal who meant well) and knock you down to the ground as soon as you say or do something controversial.
As Doug rightly highlighted, in the past the term 'celebrity' was used to brand people with great talent to convey a message to the public. It's pretty meaningless now.
Which perhaps may be a good thing.
Ask Andy Warhol!
Oh, wait...
