Turned to source of celebrity gossip for tragic tale (7)
I believe the answer is:
othello
'tragic tale' is the definition.
The definition suggests a singular noun which matches the answer.
'turned to source of celebrity gossip' is the wordplay.
'turned' shows that the letters should be reversed in order.
'source of celebrity gossip' becomes 'Hello' (Hello is a celebrity magazine).
'to' written backwards gives 'ot'.
'ot'+'hello'='OTHELLO'
'for' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for othello that I've seen before include "Jealous character" , "Dramatic Moor" , "Will's hero" , "He killed his wife Desdemona" , "product of 12 [SHAKESPEARE] , inspiring 6 [VERDI]" .)
