A table for celebrities (1-4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

a-list

'celebrities' is the definition.
(I have seen 'Top celebrities' mean 'a list' so perhaps 'celebrities' could also mean 'a list')

'a table' is the wordplay.
'table' becomes 'list' ().
'a'+'list'='A-LIST'

'for' is the link.

(Other definitions for a-list that I've seen before include "Very famous" , "Most celebrated people" , "Top celebrity group" , "Acclaimed" , "of the best sort" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
