Subject: One more -arazzi?

There was a thread a number of days back about -arazzi that I'm too lazy to
search for, but in case this coinage or nonce-word using -arazzi wasn't
mentioned:

Randy Taraborrelli, whose unauthorized bio of Sinatra is out soon or
already, is quoted as saying that Nancy Sinatra said his unauthorized and
unflattering biographizing made him "one of the `type-arazzi.'" This is from
Cindy Adams' gossip-column (gossip-columns seem to be where a lot of words
in -arazzi show up, perhaps in some cases for their only appearances).

I imagine Kitty Kelly would be the person whose picture you'd put in the
margin next to that particular word were it ever to graduate to dictionary
status.
