Misuse of the language pt. #372: "Rock Star"

"Rock Star" is a ubiquitous phrase these days. So as to clarify what the term means, we offer the following by way of definition:

Rock Stars


Not Rock Stars



Rock Star


Not Rock Star




Rock Star


Former Rock Star, now Not Rock Star

Gene Simmons is sooo a Rock Star. Any member of a band named "Kiss" and anyone who cohabitates with the Shannon Tweed is a Rock Star.
