dunno about these 2 but it is not _fundamentally_ different from how many stars build and maintain their "brands" these days.

People like e.g. Jack Black have a youtube channel or at least an instagram feed and share "slices of life" (edited or not) with their fans.

That's also a parasocial relationship.
