A condition when a celebrity becomes so famous for playing one role, song, character, media, etc... that when they try to move to something different, it goes horrible wrong or fails immediately. Or in visual media, when a celebrity plays characters on different shows that are different in name, but the same in personality and demeanor. Can vary in degrees, from minor to very severe. They are usually not flexible when it comes to their performance.
