created word from words "whore" and "star" (celebrity definition).
1) derogatory. a word used to describe someone in the
entertainment world that has
intentionally achieved renown and fame by selling either their body or soul, or both, to the industry. such methods result in a hollow sense of importance that doesn't resonate with the public, due to the shameless deeds
the celebrity performed to achieve said fame.
i heard about
lindsay lohan when she was new. she had
potential then. but she started doing really lousy movies just to get a paycheck. she's not a
celebrity anymore. she's a whorestar.
