a term used to describe the rising tide of "fake" celebrities. Folks like Paris Hilton, Nichole Richie, and Kim Kardashian et.al. who are not famous for anything in particular other than being famous. Pronounced Celebri-NOT the term is ironic in that it evokes real professions like "astronaut", but implies that these attention whores are "not" celebrities but are trying really hard to become ones.

Referring to women who are sexually or romantically attracted to other women. Applies to both lesbians and bisexual women, as it is only the same-sex attraction that matters, not any other attractions the women may have.

Originates from the Greek poet Sappho, a bisexual woman from the Isle of Lesbos, from which we get the term lesbian.
