Glossy Posse


What does "glossy posse" mean?


Trent: Do you ever feel like you're wasting your life?
Daria: Only when I'm awake.

glossy = lipgloss make up
posse = group

My powers of deduction lead me to believe that a glossy posse is a bunch of celebs, with their fake tans, spadefuls of make up and zero personality.

In England its a term applied to the collective of journalists etc. from the so-called high end celeb/fashion magazines. These are usually called the "glossy" mags due to the high quality paper they are printed on e.g. Maxim, Cosmo, Vogue, Empire etc. Therefore:

Glossy mags = "Glossy"
Group of journalists = "posse"

Hope this helps :-)

Thanks both of you for your explanations, I'm not very fluent in english so I wasn't sure about the meaning.
I guess you're right Aintalf, I mean the protagonist is English and it fits the context of the scene where he said "glossy posse".
