I believe the answer is:

stars

(Other definitions for stars that I've seen before include "''What is the ...? What is the ...? '' (Juno and the Paycock)" , "Celestial bodies of hot gases" , "Leading performers (with stripes?)" , "Leading actors" , "plays a leading role" .)

I've seen this clue in The Wall Street Journal.
