Answer:

Origin and usage

The term the limelight has an unusual history. In the early 1800s, a ‘Drummond light’ or ‘calcium light’ used the illuminating powers of the mineral lime to create a bright light commonly found in lighthouses. The method was then adapted for use on the stage in Victorian times. The lights were used to illuminate the actors, which is where the phrase ‘to be in the limelight’, meaning ‘to be at the centre of attention’, comes from.

Definition

a situation in which you are getting a lot of interest and attention from the newspapers, television, etc.

Examples

The limelight is a phrase that is commonly used to refer to famous people — professional athletes, actors, politicians, writers and others — who receive a great deal of attention for their work. Ordinary people who experience extraordinary circumstances can also be said to be in the limelight, but their fame is usually much shorter-lived.
