limelight(s) is a fandom name from the boy band (manband) ‘why don’t we’. the fans pick the name out from their first song ‘taking you’ released in 2016. the first verse ‘i need you in my life like limelight’. when the boys (jonah , corbyn , daniel , jack , zach ) went on twitter and saw the # ‘we are limelights’ and they knew the fans were called limelight’s !

Also referred to as: "Limerz Lad"

The Limelight is the place to be if you want to get pure shattered and vomit. Famous for its easy second-hand Glenties women, your sure to get the shift.

People come from far and wide to see the iPod totting DJs who are mad yocks when it comes to saying UGGY UGGY UGGY.
Anyway, it is well known for its distinctive smell of excrement.

If you havent been to Glenties, you haven't seen the largest gathering of shams known to man. Well boy ;)
Sham 1: Syked for Limelight Lad?

Sham 2: Hi sir hi shambuck boy, of course i'm syked, nothing like a good old tug from a Glenties doll.

Limelight is a word used by Why Don't We Fans. This word came from their first song called Taking you. In one of the lines of the song, it says... "I need you in my life like Limelight, wherever I go I'm taking you". Now, limelight is referred as the expensive VIP pass before concerts to get access to meet the boys, get merch, and have an after party too. This pass normally bumps up by $50 each year and is limited to about 15-20 people.

fans of a famous boyband by the name of 'why don't we'. they're known to support the five boys; jonah, corbyn, daniel, jack and zach (from oldest to youngest). they support the band and have helped them travel the world on a sold out tour but are also well known for creating drama. they like to assume personal stuff about the boys and bring them and their families down. this is not acceptable..
friend: 'have you heard of the limelights?'
me: 'yeah, they're the ones starting drama right?'
