the son of a dead conservative political commentator is a celebrity

the lady doth need to get out more, methinks

The use of quotation marks should have indicated that I don't consider him a celeb. Not quite sure what he is. A commentator...a pundit...some guy? Whatever. To many people, anyone famous is considered a celebrity.
But I commend you on your very Palinesque reaction, dodging the topic and adding nothing to the discussion, which was not intended to establish what constitutes a celebrity.
