celebritney

The term used to describe a "celebrity" who is famous primarily for bad behavior (due to either being completely devoid of talent or having their work overshadowed by their antics).

Tiger Woods co-cheater Rachel Uchitel seems to be doing everything humanly possible to prolong her celebritney status. (Look for her upcoming cover single "Me and Bombshell McGee" to drop any day now.)

getting rose-gardened

An expression describing the experience of being killed by someone who is so arrogantly confident that they can get away with it that they bury you in plain sight.

He seems like a nice enough guy, but she'd better check him out first to make sure she's not going to wind up getting rose-gardened.

mehab

The term used to describe the increasingly trendy self-promotional gimmick of checking into rehab in a desperate bid to gain or regain fame.

It seems that more and more people are becoming famous for bad behavior these days. Release a sex tape, sleep with a married celebrity, check yourself into mehab, and… boom! Just like that you have your own show.

pleahab

The term used to describe the calculated legal maneuver of preemptively sending a misbehaving celebrity to rehab in an effort to avoid jail time.

celebstitute

The term used to describe a marginal "celebrity" whose actions make them a regular tabloid/paparazzi target, thus diverting unwanted attention away from legitimate celebrities and allowing them to lead relatively normal lives.

Celebrities living in hot-spots such as Hollywood must be thrilled by the low-hanging-fruit phenomenon of "celebstitution", which keeps the paparazzi chasing reality "stars" while they run errands and drive their kids to school in peace. (Perhaps they should even start a celebstitute fund to ensure that this seemingly bottomless supply of willing distractions is kept spray-tanned and Ed-Hardied to their hearts' content.)
