An expression used to describe a person who will stop at nothing in an attempt to become or remain famous, even if that means humiliating themselves, betraying their friends, endangering their children, disgracing humanity, etc.
Recent examples of fame-seeking missiles have sold the story of their affairs with married celebrities, released sex tapes, photos, voicemails, and sexts, posed naked, posed semi-naked with Kermit the frog, pretended to launch their kid in a balloon, had 10 cosmetic surgeries in one day, compromised national security at a state dinner, wrote a tell-all, had a litter of kids, checked into rehab, PRehab, or mehab, quit her job as governor, took a punch in the face on camera, had the last name Lohan, and, of course, agreed to be filmed for a reality show.

The term used to describe a marginal "celebrity" whose actions make them a regular tabloid/paparazzi target, thus diverting unwanted attention away from legitimate celebrities and allowing them to lead relatively normal lives.
Celebrities living in hot-spots such as Hollywood must be thrilled by the low-hanging-fruit phenomenon of "celebstitution", which keeps the paparazzi chasing reality "stars" while they run errands and drive their kids to school in peace. (Perhaps they should even start a celebstitute fund to ensure that this seemingly bottomless supply of willing distractions is kept spray-tanned and Ed-Hardied to their hearts' content.)

An expression describing the experience of being killed by someone who is so arrogantly confident that they can get away with it that they bury you in plain sight.
He seems like a nice enough guy, but she'd better check him out first to make sure she's not going to wind up getting rose-gardened.
The expression used to describe the calculated and cynical attempt to control the public perception of a misbehaving celebrity by gratuitously sending them to a rehab center for the PR value alone.

The term used to describe a discount "celebrity" who is easily accessible and routinely willing to demean themselves for a nominal fee.
It is an accepted misnomer within the television industry that the casts of shows beginning with the term "Celebrity" are in fact primarily comprised of salebrities (as producers know that âSalebrity Rehabâ, while accurate, would undoubtedly taint the high standard of quality and respectability viewers have come to expect).
The term used to describe the increasingly trendy self-promotional gimmick of checking into rehab in a desperate bid to gain or regain fame.
It seems that more and more people are becoming famous for bad behavior these days. Release a sex tape, sleep with a married celebrity, check yourself into mehab, and⦠boom! Just like that you have your own show.
