Reasons why fans or individuals would cry or scream when they see their favourite celebrities
In an exclusive chat with Legit.ng, psychologist at Insight Wellness therapy (@sandybrownx), explained that there are various reasons why fans cry, scream, or shout when they watch their favourite celebrities perform or merely when they meet them in person.
"It could be regarding attachments and emotions. Music is a different kind of emotional connection and a powerful emotional trigger that can evoke different feelings. Feelings like nostalgia, joy, longing and even grief.
"So when individuals relate with an artist through that emotional connection, it is usually strong.
"We are social beings and always looking for human connection, so many people find this connection through Music, art, film, etc. Because it provides them that shared experiences, thoughts, and ideologies.
"So we can see fans crying at concerts because of numerous reasons, but at the top of that list is the emotion evoked and the connection shared with that artist."
