“Premiere” is defined in Collins as 1. The first public performance of a film, play, opera etc. 2. The leading lady in a theatre company.

Regarding 1a, “tramp” and “pad” both refer to walking.

Wayne Sleep was very famous a few years back. But I had never heard of Emoticon. And I had Crash bed. Bed probably means tramp as much as pad does, but clearly wasn’t going to fit with 4D.

Can you explain to me why leading lady = premiere

cheers
