Crossword Genius

Socialite teed off about Asian country deporting Henry (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

debutante

'socialite' is the definition.
(young girl entering fashionable society)

I cannot understand how the rest of the clue works.

(Other definitions for debutante that I've seen before include "girl coming out" , "One entering society for the first time" , "Society girl" , "Maiden speaker" , "young lady coming out" .)
