Tabloid target in Sulawesi — French are leaving (5)
I believe the answer is:
celeb
'tabloid target' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
I don't understand how the rest of the clue works.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for celeb that I've seen before include "Big name" , "Household name" , "Famous person (sl.)" , "popular star" , "Prominent figure" .)
