Linguistic Origin & Historical Etymology
The term is a compound formed from 'pop', a shortening of 'popular' (derived from Latin popularis, pertaining to the people), originating in the mid-20th century to describe commercially accessible music, and 'star', from Old English steorra, used metaphorically since the 18th century for a celebrated theatrical or public performer. Together, 'pop star' emerged in the late 1950s and 1960s with the advent of mass media and youth culture to designate a highly famous singer of popular music.
