Common questions
Is this a gossip site?
No. Famous and Fleeting covers public figures through their public work, which is what People, Career, Business and The industry are for. Private relationships, unverified rumour and paparazzi material are not published here.
What counts as public work?
Projects, appearances, contracts, businesses and public statements, plus Red carpet as a record of events people attended in front of cameras. If a claim only exists as an anonymous tip, it stays off the site.
What does the site draw on?
From named publications, official statements and public filings, summarised with the source credited and linked. A claim resting on one outlet is attributed to that outlet in the text, so you can judge it. Nothing is reproduced verbatim.
Who is behind the writing?
They are written with automated assistance from the source material and carry no individual byline, with the publication credited in place of an author. Sources and methods explains how each piece is made.
Someone says a piece about them is wrong. What happens?
The Corrections page sets out what to send, which is the article address and the claim in dispute. Corrections are made on the article with a dated note at the foot, and pieces are corrected rather than silently deleted.
Are there analytics on the site?
No cookies, no analytics, no advertising and no third-party assets. Reading a page here is not recorded anywhere except your own browser history.
