In TV Land, whenever a famous musician or actor (or any kind of celebrity really) ventures out in public, there is good chance they will be descended upon by a Thundering Herd of screaming fans who will pursue, attempting to get their autographs, rip their clothes off, etc. The celebrity will probably find themselves forced to tactics such as hiding in garbage bins or donning ridiculous disguises to escape the Groupie Brigade. Very much Truth in Television, versions of this trope have probably existed as long as there have been celebrities. However, it reached its apex in the 1960s and 70s as a result of Beatlemania. These days it is something of a Dead Horse Trope as most celebrities have security too tight to allow anything like this to happen, and fans must content themselves with flinging their underwear at their idols and other such shows of affection. Compare Instant Fan Club. May overlap with Open the Door and See All the People. Can become an Angry Mob if someone expresses disdain for the focus of the group's adoration. See also: Celeb Crush which can result in Groupie Brigades. See also Paparazzi. For groupies as individual characters, see Groupie. Examples |

Sherlock gives us the Empty Hearse, begun by none other than Anderson as a club for debating the possible ways Sherlock could be Faking the Dead. Although some of the members use it as a way to write romantic fiction about Holmes, instead. It seems to be half a parody of real-life Sherlockian literary clubs and half a parody of certain parts of the show's fanbase. | |

In Dr. Horrible's Sing-Along Blog, Hero Antagonist Captain Hammer has such a brigade, represented in the show by two fangirls and a very Camp Gay fanboy who sing his praises, despise his girlfriend, stalk him, and openly offer to do "the weird stuff". There's a nasty bit of satire too, in that when Captain Hammer is finally defeated, they switch to worshiping Dr. Horrible. | |

A Hard Day's Night: Possibly the Trope Codifier, with the hordes of groupies chasing The Beatles all around London. Supposedly those were real shots of real groupies chasing the Fab Four while the cameras rolled. Amusingly inverted in their next movie Help! - the Beatles pull up to their homes, and the only girls around are a couple of middle-aged housewives, one of whom needs to be coaxed to wave. A similar scene occurs in Confessions of a Pop Performer, where Sid and Timmy find a rock band they want to promote, and at their first concert, have to bus in some middle aged women who have to be encouraged to scream and wave. |

Scandal in the Spotlight focuses on "Japan's hottest Boy Band," and screaming throngs of fans are a constant hazard for the protagonist once she gets caught up with Revance. Most of the time, the biggest concern is that the guys will get mobbed if they're recognized in public, but in some cases - such as on Iori's route - the fangirls get downright nasty over seeing her in the company of one of their idols. | |

In "Wacky Delly", when the titular Show Within a Show becomes popular, producer Ralph Bighead gets an army of increasingly crazed fans that take pieces of his car, his clothes, and his scalp as souvenirs. In a later scene, Ralph pushes his car with a dummy of himself towards the fans to distract them so he can safely walk into Bighead Studios. |

Parodied, along with most other rock group tropes, in the Discworld novel Soul Music. Crowds are overcome by the spirit of "Music with Rocks In", which apparently has no musical merit for objective listeners not themselves possessed by it. This causes them to behave like stereotypical groupies, as well as forming their own bands. | |

She fights them off, but this only makes the fans like her more. Collecting stories and photos of her freak-outs becomes a new thing they do. In "Aftermath I: Bridgette Over Troubled Water", the Drama Brothers have to run for their lives when they're pursued by a bus full of female fans. |

In Metalocalypse, this (just like everything else in the series) is taken to ridiculous extremes... including the mass suicides among female fans after lead singer Nathan Explosion got a girlfriend. And then more female fans breaking out into open warfare upon hearing that he's single again. Dethklok's fans are easy to rile, though; The Louvre was nearly destroyed by marauding fans after Murderface said he didn't like any of the art in it. Oh, and they resort to acts of terrorism with minimal provocation, defacing Mount Rushmore and committing mass murder to persuade Dethklok to perform songs from their album Dethwater live. They even have their own army of volunteer fans called Klokateers to work for Dethklok, with no shortage of signups, despite the training process being at minimum 50% mortality rate (literally the first task is to pair up with someone and fight them to the death). Metalocalypse owes a lot to A Hard Day's Night and This is Spın̈al Tap to begin with. | |

One of these kicks off the action in the New Zork chapter of With Strings Attached, as the four turn a corner and unexpectedly come face to face with a line of kids waiting to win free “Beagles� tickets. (Keep in mind, it's 1954, so they're hardly expecting to be recognized.) Given their various means of escape, Ringo gets the worst of it by far, being thrown off a garage roof by a fan trying to get him down to his friends. And the Groupie Brigade stuff doesn't end there: Although Ringo escapes those fans by accidentally teleporting to the Plaza Hotel, he gets trapped there because it's under siege by more fans. Paul manages to lure the Groupie Brigade around the Plaza into swamping the “Hitler Youth� trying to detain him, because one of them is wearing a “Beagle� wig. When John leads the harveys in their peaceful protest, they're surrounded by fans, but he's protected by layer upon layer of giant rabbits. |

The Idolmaker: Caesare's first concert suffers from inadequate security, allowing girls to climb onstage and swarm him a few lines into his first song. Once Caesare is taken backstage, the girls are cleared off, and security is beefed up, Vinny sends Caesare back onstage in the same ripped shirt, which he rips even more while he sings. | |

In Teen Titans Go! Volume 2, the issue "Starstruck" has Starfire become a massive fan of a teen idol, so Robin attempts to become a teen idol himself in order to impress her. It works too well, as Robin becomes so popular as a teen idol that he's swarmed by a legion of fangirls (including Terra, oddly enough) everywhere he goes, which ruins his effectiveness as a crime fighter. Luckily for him, his 15 Minutes of Fame quickly expire. Not so luckily, once everyone else moves on to the next teen idol, so does Starfire. | |

Amusingly inverted in their next movie Help! - the Beatles pull up to their homes, and the only girls around are a couple of middle-aged housewives, one of whom needs to be coaxed to wave. A similar scene occurs in Confessions of a Pop Performer, where Sid and Timmy find a rock band they want to promote, and at their first concert, have to bus in some middle aged women who have to be encouraged to scream and wave. |

The Monkees: Although situations like these were more than plentiful in the real life mid-60s era of Monkeemania, rarely is this trope actually seen, because, in their wacky TV show universe, the Monkees are not famous at all... in fact, they're Starving Artists. One notable exception would be the documentary episode "The Monkees On Tour" and, to a much different extent, "The Monkees In Paris". |

On Homestar Runner, the premise of the cancelled animated series Limozeen: But They're In SPACE! seemed to be based on the band spending most of their time simultaneously running from and giving backstage passes to all the screaming "babe-liens" of the galaxy. | |

The Buffy the Vampire Slayer episode "Bewitched, Bothered and Bewildered" has a spell go wrong (as they often do) and Xander is chased by hordes of love-sick fans. Only they want to tear his flesh off, not his clothes. | |

Prince Char in Ella Enchanted. Worse still, the leader of all the Groupie Brigades was essentially a stalker who had spent her spare time spying on him and is convinced she'll marry him eventually. | |

Sakuraba in Eyeshield 21 is frequently chased around by hordes of fangirls, much to the delight of his agent who is making a mint off merchandising. Hiruma Youichi once uses this to his advantage. | |
