It seems reasonable to me that you could admire somebody without thinking that they’re a friend or family. That’s what being a fan is. Some of the more extreme fans are going to want to know intimate details about the object of their admiration. I don’t see how it’s different from any other obsessive hobbyist.
That’s probably true in some contexts. But how many, EG, Raspberry Pi enthusiasts know the name of the senior engineer, let alone their relationship status?
I’m sure you can admire someone’s music or writing without caring one bit about their personal life. But I don’t think you could say the same about an actor. What’s more important for your life: movies or smartphones? So why do we know the names of so many actors but not scientists or engineers?
