EN: spotlight; center of attention
That thing every "bida-bida" (attention-seeker) craves. When someone is in the "spotlight," all eyes are on them, whether it's for winning a beauty pageant, acing a presentation at work, or being the subject of the latest office chismis. It's the opposite of being "sidelined." Some people love it, some people dread it.
From English 'spotlight'.
Used both literally for a stage light and, more commonly, figuratively for being the center of attention.
