Very much TruthInTelevision, versions of this trope have probably existed as long as there have been celebrities. However, it reached its apex in the 1960s and 70s as result of [[Music/TheBeatles Beatlemania.]] These days it is something of a DeadHorseTrope as most celebrities have security too tight to allow anything like this to happen, and fans must content themselves with flinging their underwear at their idols and other such shows of affection.
