"We Have No Choice But To Stan As Stan culture grew more popular through the 2010s, fans would often express their praise of their preferred idol with variations on the phrase "We Stan." One of the most popular variations of these is "We Have No Choice But to Stan." The phrase began gaining in popularity towards the end of 2018. One early popular tweet to use the phrase showed Kris Jenner in Ariana Grande's "thank u, next" video; it was tweeted by @leesego_ November 30th, 2018, gaining over 520 retweets and 1,500 likes (shown below, left). On June 11th, 2019, Twitter user Laydiexskull made a post about Nessa with the phrase, gaining over 250 retweets and 1,800 likes (shown below, right)." - Know your meme - Stan

idolatrar, ser fã obcecado

Definition from N-TV:
os termos que mais se aproximam do sentido do verbo "to stan": adorar, idolatrar (de um jeito obsessivo), ser fã obcecado. Não há uma palavra própria em português.

Corria o ano de 2000 quando o rapper Eminem lançou a música “Stan”, que conta a história de um fã obsessivo. Agora, “stan” inclui o conceituado dicionário britânico de Oxford como um termo que pode ser usado ora como substantivo ora como verbo.

A designação será sempre a mesma: “stan”, o nome, é “um fã obcecado por uma determinada celebridade” e “stan”, a ação, é “ser um fã obcecado por uma determinada celebridade”.

Michel Gondry se perdeu na própria genialidade. Antes, preciso dizer que sou fã obcecado do diretor. A ponto de ter DVD autografado, tentado contato, transformado seu estilo em filosofia profissional e assistido à compilação de seus clipes todos os dias por anos da minha vida. - O Globo
A notícia publicada no “The Sun” relata a luta do menino que sofre com o conflito de identidade desde os 16 anos, quando começou a idolatrar Rihanna e passou a tomar hormônio. - Extra
