Famous person, for short (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

celeb

'famous person for short' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for celeb that I've seen before include "Big name" , "Famous person (colloq.)" , "Household name" , "Prominent figure" , "Famous person (abbr)" .)

I've seen this clue in the Newsday and the USA Today.
