Spiteful, as gossip (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

catty

'spiteful as gossip' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for catty that I've seen before include "Mean and spiteful" , "Backbiting" , "It's like a queen" , "Spiteful in feline way" , "Bitchy as a feline" .)

I've seen this clue in the LA Times and the L.A. Times Daily.
