Starting in the late 60s and early 70s, you had these famous women like Pamela Des Barres, Sweet Connie, Cynthia Plaster Caster or Sable Starr. I can't really think of any really famous groupies since the 80s. What's the reason for that?

Isn't Valerie, Wolfie's #1 groupie? She's famous.
Not famous, but I'm sure all these sound-alike "metal bands" from the 2020s have fan groupies.
Pop music has been reduced to teenyboppers.
Rap/Hip-Hop has its ratchet (is this still a word?) hoochies.

The groupies have migrated over to sports. NFL, NBA etc. Most of those "groupies" are on OnlyFans, are hardcore porn stars, or both.

Sunset Strip-era groupies would've had a field day on social media.

Yes and I’m glad to remember a time before social media. Social media has a tendency to ruin everything.

To have groupies, you need bands.

All of these athletes and wrestlers are doing fly outs. There is big money in it for these girls of sort in 2025. NBA guys are bringing in groups of Instagram models/porn gals etc. of such to entertain players in each city they play in. Rent a space and have the ladies sign the NDA
