Matinée Idol
Matinée idol is a term used mainly to describe film or theatre stars who are adored to the point of adulation by their fans. The term almost exclusively refers to adult male actors. Matinée idols often tend to play romantic and dramatic leading or secondary leading roles and are usually known for having good looks.

Matinée idols often became the subject of parody during the height of their popularity, an example being Stan Laurel spoofing Rudolph Valentino in his film '' Mud and Sand''. Now a somewhat old-fashioned term, the phenomenon reached its height from the 1920s to around the 1960s in Hollywood. " Teen idol" is a similar term, which more often refers to youthful musicians rather than film actors. In today's Asia “idols” per ...
