Morphology
slebs + and + influencer
This is a straightforward coordination of two person-denoting nouns: 'slebs' (informal/slang short for 'celebrities') and 'influencers' (social media personalities). If a B1 learner knows both constituent words, the combined meaning is directly derivable from the parts and the coordinating 'and', so the phrase is transparently compositional.
Etymology
Slebs and influencers pairs two parts: slebs is a short form of 'celebrities' and influencers are people who shape opinions online. Imagine a red carpet where TV stars and social media stars stand together — so the phrase means 'well-known people from show business and the internet'.
