'five star girl?' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both people as well as being singular nouns.
Perhaps there's a link between them I don't understand?

'five star girl?' is the wordplay.
'five' becomes 'v' ('V' can be a synonym of 'five').
'star girl?' becomes 'esta' (I am not sure about the 'star' bit.**).
'v'+'esta'='VESTA'

Can you help me to learn more?
