(Coined by the infamous Kevin Hart during a live interview):

(adj.): A person or figure who is snap-finger famous is one whose cultural relevance balances between nonexistent and barely tangible.
*starts snapping fingers rhythmically*

"Aw, shit- what's that one useless bitch's name again?... Yeah, that one-"
*continues snapping fingers while furiously attempting to jog the memory*
"Yeah! That Kim Kardashian bitch, that's the one."
