    Default attention

    Hi,

    What does the attention mean here?

    For all her protests she still loved the attention.

    Thanks a lot

    Is this correct:

    the act or faculty of attending, especially by directing the mind to an object.

    No.

    ...the interest people were taking in her and/or the fuss they were making of her.

    She loved being in the public eye/the limelight.
