A person who gets themselves involved with a high-profile individual, usually for the attention from the media.
Often, a hanger-on has little to no talent in a particular area of media; usually only cares about the publicity that comes with being a celebrity. All of this explains why they do what they do. These people are often accused of being "attention whores" or "gold-diggers" and other derogatory terms like the the ones named.
Otherwise known as being "famous for being famous".
