To paraphrase: There's a russian word тусовщик denoting a person who hangs around some people famous for what they do (artists, musicians, writers), knows all their gossip, has a load of stories featuring famous people, but does nothing else. Does nothing creative. Does nothing, just kind of hangs up. And that's a totally not a good thing. It's okay for teenagers if they're lucky, but grown up тусовщик is a kind of miserable lifestyle. And now you propose there are good, real тусовщики and bad, fake тусовщики. This is extremelly strange to my ear. It's like having fake alcoholics blamed for being fake.
