When I refer to "Starfucking" I mean it in the traditional sense of wanting to be near fame and glamour in hopes that it will somehow make one's own life more glamorous, but I also have my own postmodern definition of Starfucking, which refers to how our society's relationship to celebrity has evolved.
Being a star these days can be a hazardous endeavor. No longer is there a beard for every gay actor, a discreet "rest" for those with a little heroin habit. If you have a skeleton in the closet and want to leap into the public eye, you'd better be prepared to trot out that skeleton dressed to the nines--cause if you don't, some enterprising little journalist is gonna dig it up in all it's rotten glory.
That's the other side of Starfucking. Lot's of stars are getting fucked now--and not in the hot-sweaty-fun groupie sense.
