fan + friend = frand.
Celebrities have them. It's where they interact with their fans (whether it be through through the
internet, mail, etc.), so they're sort of
like friends, but obviously not quite there yet because they
don't really know them on a more personal level.
An actual, real-life friend of a
celebrity: Yo man, what are you doing on the
computer that's taking you so long?
Celebrity: Oh, I'm just on Facebook... replying to these messages that a few of my frands sent me.
