To this day clickbait headlines about celebrities ravage the internet and tabloid newspapers line grocery store checkouts and newsstands. In the late 90s, the Spice Girls were equally beloved and smeared by headlines. In the 00s, headlines storied the downfall of pop stars like Britney Spears and Lindsay Lohan, treating them as objects rather than humans. But how did this all start?
