Crossword Genius

Ogled celeb journo (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

stared

'ogled' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

'celeb journo' is the wordplay.
'celeb' becomes 'star' (I've seen this in another clue).
'journo' becomes 'ed' (I've seen this in other clues).
'star'+'ed'='STARED'

(Other definitions for stared that I've seen before include "Treads (anag)" , "Looked long and hard at" , "Looked at long and fixedly" , "Gazed intently at" , "Look fixedly at" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
