When thinking of a particular celebrity that embodies the concept of the demystification theory, I can't help but think of Michael Jackson. The King of Pop was one of the most talented artists of our time. His career started as a little boy in The Jackson 5 and evolved into a solo act as he grew into is teen and adult years.
The media is insanely critical of anyone in the public eye. They seemed to be especially hard on Michael Jackson. Jackson was already very insecure and critical of himself, so the media scrutiny really broke him down. In the 90's Michael was accused of child molestation and his image took a severe beating from the media and never truly recovered.
