What's an (is there an) antonym for celebrity?
Everybody else?
I don't think there is one, because it is a term used for distinguishing an uncommon condition from an almost universal one. It's kind of like asking: "What is the opposite of a twin?" Non-twin? There's no polar opposite.
But I've often wondered why there's not an adjectival form of celebrity. How about:
"sell-ah-BRI-tik" ?
