Pop Idol segue highly praised (9)
I believe the answer is:
eulogised
'praised' is the definition.
(eulogising is a kind of praising)
'pop idol segue highly' is the wordplay.
'idol segue' anagrams to 'EULOGISED'.
But, I am not sure how the anagram is indicated.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for eulogised that I've seen before include "Praised formally" , "Extolled" , "given major promotion" , "Praised (someone) highly" .)
