celebutante
Heiress seeking cameras
A celebutante is a young woman from a wealthy or prominent family who attracts media attention for her social life rather than any particular achievement.
The word blends celebrity with debutante, suggesting someone famous mainly for being famous: Paris Hilton was the quintessential celebutante of the early 2000s.
The term often carries a dismissive edge.
