The term groupie is derived from group, in reference to a musical group, but the word is also used in a more general sense, especially in casual conversation, to mean a particular kind of musical fan assumed to be more interested in relationships with rockstars than in their music.
 A groupie is generally considered a devoted fan of a band or musical performer.
 A groupie is considered more intense about their adored celebrities than a fan and tends to follow them from place to place.
 A groupie will attempt to have a connection with the band, and may seek intimate contact.
 Many groupies will involve themselves sexually with members of their preferred band.
 Though less common, groupies of sports teams and athletes, actors/actresses and other celebrity figures do exist.
