1. 1名人、明星(英式雜誌俚語)

    A sleb is a celebrity — a famous person, the kind magazines put on the cover and gossip about. It is British informal, a lazy, slightly way of saying celeb. and glossy magazines use it; you would not put it in a school essay or a formal letter. It can sound a little teasing, as if fame is a bit silly, not a title of respect. Though actually, many British speakers still just say celeb; sleb is the more slurred, magazine-y twin, and some people find it dated now.

組成A slurring of celeb, itself a shortening of celebrity.
