Celeboddity, the word 'celeboddity' invented by John Hughston a.k.a. Razimus

celeboddity: An unpredictable celebrity. An odd-ball celeb that sticks out from other celebrities. They may be crazy, ill, abnormally eccentric, unreliable, have drastically been effected due to drug use, or just acting as if they were one of these things in a publicity stunt or hoax in an attempt to boost their career. When a normally apparently content adult celebrity suddenly radically changes their personality.

example: Joaquin Phoenix is a celeboddity because no one knows for sure what he will do next, he's either hoaxing or ill. Andy Kaufman could be considered a celeboddity as well as David Bowie.

coined: The term 'celeboddity' was coined by John Hughston a.k.a. Razimus on Mar 25, 2009

proof of invention of the word celeboddity: John Hughston registered the word 'celeboddity for the first time on 'wikipedia' and 'urbandictionary', a google search of the term "celeboddity" turned up with 0 results as of March 25th 2009 10:00AM PST. John Hughston registered the username 'celeboddity' on gmail, blogger/blogspot, youtube, myspace, twitter, wikipedia, urbandictionary, and yahoo.

As well as the .com of course, which can be seen here: http://celeboddity.com/ (coming soon)

why and how the word 'celeboddity' was created: I was creating a comedy rap song and to be up to date it would be impossible to not mention Joaquin Phoenix and his current declaration of career changing from professional actor to professional hip hop artist, I wrote, "Joaquin Phoenix is a CELEBRITY ODDITY", and when I decided to shorten the line I combined the words CELEBRITY and ODDITY to form the newly invented word CELEBODDITY, the word perfectly describes Joaquin Phoenix's recent drastic personality change.
