ABSTRACT This essay examines the desecration of Clara Bow whose celebrity as a movie star and cultural icon exploded across media in the 1920s and early 1930s. Her symbolic and commodity value was synonymous with the erotic provocations of the stereotyped flapper, but her celebrity transgressed Hollywood’s conventional discursive inscription of female stardom as a glamorous attainment of upward mobility, instead infecting it with themes convergent with eugenics discourse. As a consequence, Bow’s desecration was related not just to the eruption of sex scandals, but also to a persistent emphasis on her tainted class identity as ‘white trash’. In this respect, the desecration of Clara Bow anticipated elements of twenty-first-century celebrity formation, including the moral judgements and class shaming directed at ‘chav’ female celebrities associated with British reality television.

优生学时代的白色垃圾名人：亵渎克拉拉·鲍

摘要本文探讨了克拉拉·鲍尔（Clara Bow）的亵渎行为，他的电影明星和文化偶像的名人在1920年代和1930年代初在媒体上大放异彩。她的象征性和商品价值是刻板印象中的色情挑衅的代名词，但她的名声超越了好莱坞传统的女性明星话语性题词，象征着向上移动的光彩夺目，反而以与优生学说相融合的主题来感染它。结果，鲍尔的亵渎不仅与性丑闻的爆发有关，而且与对她污名化的阶级身份“白垃圾”的持续强调有关。在这方面，对克拉拉·鲍（Carara Bow）的亵渎预见了二十一世纪名人的形成，
