Person on a pedestal (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

idol

'person on a pedestal' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for idol that I've seen before include "Image of a god (not icon)" , "someone admirable" , "Pagan symbol" , "Effigy" , "A graven image or object of adoration" .)

I've seen this clue in the New York Times, the USA Today, The Washington Post, the Universal, the Newsday.com and the Newsday.
