Scottish Daily Express
|November 18, 2025
"PARASOCIAL" has been named as the Cambridge Dictionary's word of the year, defined as a connection someone feels with a famous person they do not know.

The parasocial relationships people form with online influencers and AI chatbots have also been highlighted as part of the growing trend.
