== Music ==
* The song "Cult of Personality" by Living Colour explores the phenomenon from the point of view of the subject of such a cult, but includes comments that are subversive of the purpose of a Cult of Personality, encouraging the listener to break free from the groupthink in which they're trapped.
* Tommy, from the [[Rock Opera]] of [[Tommy|the same name]] by [[The Who]], seems to involuntarily inspire a Cult of Personality around himself while he is unware of the world at large. Ultimately this is a [[Subverted Trope|subversion]], though, because when he regains his senses and tries to actually inspire and ''use'' his cult following, they turn on him.
