Trust Fund Babe

What is a "Trust Fund Babe"?
Trust fund baby is a person who is born into a family with money. Often, this person is privy to a large inheritance of money, generally through a trust fund. The phrase became popular with the emergence of wealthy American families in the 20th century, and the rise of a generation of children born into inherited money. The term is most notably used to describe 21st century socialites

What is a "Socialite"?
socialite is a person who is known to be a part of fashionable high society because of his or her regular participation in social activities and fondness for spending a significant amount of time entertaining and being entertained. Some socialites may choose to use their social skills and connections to promote and raise funds for various charitable or philanthropic activities. Socialites are usually in possession of considerable wealth, whether gained by inheritance or otherwise, that can sustain their steady attendance at social functions.

What is a "Celebrity"?
celebrity (or simply as celeb) is a widely-recognized or notable person who commands a high degree of public and media attention. 

What is a "Celebutante"?
Celebutante is a portmanteau of the words celebrity and debutante. It is generally used to refer to a young woman or man from a rich family who has received a large amount of media attention, primarily for his/her wealth and lifestyle. It differs from socialite, because celebutantes are also celebrities, and are generally famous for being famous
