Some magazines have even sought to export their recipe for success abroad. The avid interest of the media in prying into the lives of the famous has transferred to television, and there are a myriad of cheaply produced programs which do little more than hound celebrities attending social functions or just getting on with their daily lives. However, many celebrities have decided to cash in on this public interest and demand huge sums of money to appear in exclusive reports or interviews.* * *f press;prensa diaria daily newspapers pl, dailies pl ;prensa especializada specialist press;tener buena/mala prensa tb fig have a good/bad press* * *prensa nf1) : printing press2) : pressconferencia de prensa: press conference* * *prensa n1.
