生活英语|Gossip magnet 八卦焦点

Gossip magnet refers to a person or object that attracts an unusual amount of gossip.

Gossip magnet引导发很多八卦传说的人或物，即八卦焦点。

For example:

Kan is no Justin Timberlake -- or even a gossip magnet like Paris Hilton. But he is taking advantage of the same underlying^{1 forces that gave them star power. As media have gone interactive2, stardom has become participatory.}

Kan不是Justin Timberlake，更不是像Paris Hilton那样的八卦焦点。但他却会让这种无形的造星力量为他所用。媒体已步入互动年代，明星圈自然也要参与其中。
