According to Wikipedia:
Celebrity is a condition of fame and broad public recognition of an individual or group as a result of the attention given to them by mass media. A person may attain a celebrity status from having great wealth, their participation in sports or the entertainment industry, their position as a political figure, or even from their connection to another celebrity.

I don't admire any of them, except for the rare Hero[s].

Thanks. Understood about the definition, but it’s one of those words that confers an undeserved status on the types of people described in the definition, in my opinion at least. I neither honor nor celebrate such people unless they do something truly worthy of being honored and celebrated.
