B Correct answer
Explanation

'Luminary' refers to a person who inspires or influences others, or a prominent expert in a particular field. While derived from 'lumen' (light), its modern usage refers to an influential person rather than something literally shiny. 'Celebrity' is the closest match as it refers to a famous person, though luminary carries more connotation of expertise and inspiration.
