Enthralled by canals, a celebrity somewhere in Eastern France (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

alsace

'in eastern france' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'enthralled by canals a celebrity somewhere' is the wordplay.
'enthralled by' indicates a hidden word.
'ALSACE' can be found hidden inside 'canals a celebrity somewhere'.

(Other definitions for alsace that I've seen before include "somewhere in France" , "Filled pastry" , "French ------ -Lorraine, was German 1872-1919" , "Region in France, occasionally German" , "source of French wines" .)
