I believe the answer is:

dido

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'she' is the definition.

I don't understand the rest of the clue.

(Other definitions for dido that I've seen before include "Carthaginian heroine" , "Operatic heroine" , "Ancient queen of Carthage" , "Founding queen of Carthage (did next to nothing!)" , "Antic" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
