Lindsay Lohan
editI agree with the comment on the deletion page that Lindsay Lohan needs to be removed from this article. Though she has not labeled herself as a lesbian or bisexual, she has acknowledged a romantic relationship with Samantha Ronson, and so she does not meet the current definition of celesbian.

Nor the old definition (celebrity lesbian) for that matter. Scarykitty (talk) 03:40, 22 January 2009 (UTC)
Suggestions for Improvement
editI think you guys should start with the current definition of the term and then discuss its origin.
"The term was first used by New Yorkers Pam Franco and Susan Levine, a disk jockey" think of revising this sentence... Maybe adding couple of words about Pam Franco Mila ja mila (talk) 00:27, 18 February 2016 (UTC)
You may also add a definition of fauxmosexual in the sentence that mentions the term. Mila ja mila (talk) 00:31, 18 February 2016 (UTC)
"The ad was for the Mz Hip and Fit NY contest, the idea of Denise Cohen of Denco Designs & Events. The contest was a search for the hottest lesbian in the United States. The term celesbian was used for the celebrity lesbian judges."[2] I would expand on the first paragraph trying to tie ideas more cohesively. Also maybe trying to add the names of contemporary celesbian in the second paragraph might help the reader to understand the concept better. The first line should be a more complex definition followed by the origin of the meaning. Perhaps use some references to give more legitimacy to the concept Belen Sianetha (talk) 00:36, 18 February 2016 (UTC)
In general, the article could be more neutral in terms and expressions. Mila ja mila (talk) 00:39, 18 February 2016 (UTC)
I've searched in google scholar and it's useless. However, I noticed that when you google "celesbian" or "coming out as lesbian celebrity" usually all sorts of lists of "hotties" pop up. maybe you could cover that mainstream heternormative perception of lesbian celebrities.Mila ja mila (talk) 01:15, 18 February 2016 (UTC)
Smasongarrison, regarding the Template:Globalize tag you added, read Template:Globalize. It is highly unlikely that there exists global views on this topic. Flyer22 Reborn (talk) 03:54, 28 January 2018 (UTC)
