Someone who is still passionately clinging to the rebellious spirit and style of the bygone rock n' roll era, even if the world around them has changed -a lot-. Whether this is admiration or eye-rolling depends on the speaker and the situation.

A person that channels their inner 80s rock god and project a misplaced confidence, oblivious to the fact that the people around them is more likely rolling their eyes than throwing up the horns.
My uncle insists on riding his old cruiser motorcycle. He thinks he's like a rockstar, but the exhaust fumes and loud noise annoy everyone. We just want to enjoy the music on our headphones without the constant clattering.

My sister just referred to Karen as a 'rockstar,' and Karen, in all her smug glory, took it as a compliment... We all knew Karen was being subtly made fun of for her antiquated, out of touch style.
