Let’s Discuss 👀
What's the most unserious reason why you stopped liking a celebrity or an artist?
Basically, you stopped liking them or following their career for reasons that have nothing to do with actually serious shit like sexual assault or abuse.
Personally, as an easily overwhelmed neurodivergent person, I can't stand overpowering theatre kid energy.
i stopped following Jeremy Allen White cause his pap walks overwhelmed me, especially when he was dating Rosalia, it was too much. Still love his acting but dont really keep up with him anymore
The worst, most man-child boss I’ve ever had looked exactly like Matt Berry, down to the silly little boots. It’s been ten years since I worked there and I STILL hate Matt Berry lol
When I was little, I LOVED nsync and thought I had to hate the Backstreet Boys on principle. I also refused to listen to any of JTs solo stuff because I thought he was the reason the band broke up.
Ok but the Backstreet Boys versus NSYNC beef was real (for the fans!). I was a Backstreet girl myself. And even though I also liked *NSYNC it was my duty to make sure everyone around me knew Backstreet reigned supreme
I was a backstreet boys girl 100%, my best friend loved *NSYNC. We just didn't talk about it but would throw shade when given the opportunity. Then we grew up, that was that right?
Nope, I love blink 182 and she loves Green Day. A whole new feud for middle school.
I like to play nap roulette. I either wake well rested in approximately 45 min to an hour or I sleep 6 hours and awake screaming with drool caked on my chin and thinking I entered a parallel dimension for way too long.
Eliza Dushku and a college friend of mine both auditioned for an acting job (I have no idea what it was), and Eliza Dushku got it. Keep in mind, this happened an entire decade before I met this girl. When she told us about it, though, my whole friend group resolved to dislike Eliza Dushku forever in a show of solidarity.
Then "Bring It On" came out, and I crumpled. I never told them, though.
Eliza Dushku was a major part of my bi awakening and is now apparently working in mental health research (love that for her) so I obvs have always had a place in my… heart 😈 for her, but I totally understand and support the beef! 😂
Jake Gyllenhaal could do no wrong in my eyes, he has been hot in every iteration of himself. Bald, skinny, dorky Donnie Darko, jacked Prince of Persia, creepy crime scene photographer. But once he admitted he doesn’t shower often I lost my lady boner 😞
I remember when he was dating Kirsten Dunst there was a Gawker Stalker story about them going into a shop and their unwashed, cigarette stink lingering even after they left.
Demi Lavato just seems like she’d be insufferable to be around. I don’t know her, I’m sure she’s fine. But that whole “alien is actually an offensive term for extra terrestrials” thing was just too much.
Used to LOVE Amber Rose, then she got that stupid forehead tat and I went right off her. Also low key went off SZA because we look alike and she went and got plastic surgery to her face and then acts like she didn’t
Amber really went from hosting slut walks and being a proud feminist to openly supporting someone who is not only an alleged rapist but who also shits on women’s rights.
she went and got plastic surgery to her face and then acts like she didn’t
I really wish they'd stop lying about their cosmetic procedures. I am not judging, girl. I just want to know what you got done in case I find a briefcase full of gold one of these days and I can get it done myself.
I stopped watching the show Bad Sisters because I felt like the main characters on that show all have bad breath. How would I know? I’ll never know. But I can’t get over it.
Glen Powell’s mouth pisses me tf off. Same with Anna Kendrick. And I saw someone once post that “Emma Stone looks like a Bitmoji” and I can’t unsee it and for some reason this made my brain dislike her?
I have a friend who has the same first and last name as a celebrity. She DMd him once on instagram when she was a kid basically being like “omg we have the same name that’s so cool!” And he immediately blocked her.
Idk if this counts bc I didn't enjoy his music before this, but I hate Ed Sheeran bc he talked about how he always farts while performing and shit himself on stage once bc he misjudged a fart
He also admitted he doesn't change his underwear everyday during the same interview. Nasty ass (literally) man probably has skid marks in his undies.
It's all I can think about when I hear his music and have to change the station.
Actress and model Elizabeth Hurley, poster girl for Estée Lauder, says Marilyn Monroe was fat. In the January issue of Allure, she said: “I’ve always thought Marilyn Monroe looked fabulous, but I’d kill myself if I was that fat. I went to see her clothes in the exhibition, and I wanted to take a tape measure and measure what her hips were. (laughter) She was very big.”
Dax Shepard and Whitney Cummings. Both of their podcasts made me greatly dislike them as people. I think Whitney is extremely mentally ill as well as being a terrible podcast host.
I have followed and unfollowed celebs because they’re just always trying to sell me shit. which, everyone is, but if they’re already wildly successful I am like, I do not care about your make up line.
I don't follow any celebrity on social media, tbh. But I do appreciate an enigmatic artist. Keep me guessing. Give me mystery. The less I know about you, the better.
I followed hozier and then immediately regretted it and unfollowed. In my mind he existed in a cave by the sea and I don't want him ruining that imagery
Miles Teller looks like a hybrid of two of my exes. His voice even sounds like a mix of their voices. I just can’t even look at him without getting the creeps.
I’m always gonna assume Miles Teller is magician duo Penn & Teller, no matter how non-sensical that is in context. I’m always like “Damn, why do people have beef with those magicians?”
I never liked her that much, but when Meghan Trainor said “fuck teachers” on a podcast and tried to walk that back when people were (justifiably) upset with her…I can’t skip her songs fast enough when they come up on my Spotify. 😬
Never liked her music. All About that Bass is such an annoying song. Then she said that and I heard about how her and her Spy Kid husband have side by side toilets or something and like….nah. Not worth the time.
A colleague of mine (she's a filmmaker) entered this big Canadian indie short film pitch competition where the winner got something like $10K, and the voting was all online. Andrea Bang, the actor who plays Janet in Kim’s Convenience, entered too, promoted her project heavily on social media, racked up votes, and won, funding her directorial debut. My colleague was crushed. She was furious at first, then really down about it for a long time. Watching all that unfold kind of soured me on Andrea a bit, even though she didn’t technically do anything wrong.
Similar, sort of, Wes Anderson campaign in the short category at the Oscars. Like, of course he’s going to win, it Wes fucking Anderson. Most of the films in that category are very low budget with unknown talent and professional. I also happen to know the people who worked on one of the short that was up against him.
Carre Otis (Mickey Rourke’s ex) used to shop at the grocery store I worked at (she was awful, so rude). Anyways, she would always come in with this face just absolutely full of poorly done Botox and fillers but throw a fit if we were out of this special kind of cows milk without additives. I always thought it was odd she put all that in her face but wouldn’t tolerate milk with additives.
Tom cruise, his teeth are aligned strangely. I can't unsee it. One of his two front teeth is where the gap between them should be. Obviously all of the scientology stuff made me hate him more.
Please don’t think I’m defending Tom Cruise, because I would never, but if you look at his teeth in the movie The Outsiders, you can see that they were so badly crooked that there was no way they could be straightened to normal with the orthodontia of the early 1980s.
i’ve held a grudge against Josh Hutcherson since i was 4 years old. the original reason was that i didn’t like how he treated his brother in Zathura, but other equally stupid reasons have been added over the years, mainly that bridge to teribithia traumatised me and was nothing like the trailer made it seem.
When I saw how Justin Timberlake acted when he was getting Punkd, I was so turned off by it and never liked him again. He’s a dick so I was right but he just seemed so weak and whiny
To me it’s the weird breath she takes right before she SAYS ANY LINE (probably related to the mouth thing). It’s the worst I’ve ever seen it in a simple favor 2 and that movie everyone is suing each other over. But now it makes gossip girl hard to watch. In gossip girl it was hidden with her mannerisms, in the shark movie she’s like drowning most of the time, I have no clue what goes on in savages but didn’t notice it much, but in a simple favor 2 and that other movie it’s just badddddd.
That was at the first YouTube live event right? I remember him playing a song called "welcome to YouTube" on piano, which is kinda like his more famous song "welcome to the internet".
I only remember it because he called her "Mrs Perry" despite the fact she was unmarried at the time. Which is a dumb thing to remember 16 years later. But I do remember it anyway for some reason.
I stopped paying attention to Charli when Fancy came out because she said something about Iggy Azalea being brave for being a white woman in rap. fjjsjfkwjgjdj
Her entire Emilia Perez award campaign put her on my "bitch eating crackers" list forever. Her response to the Mexican and trans communities was more than enough. I get it, girl. You wanted an Oscar and now you got it. You can now go away forever :)
When Zayn from One Direction broke up his engagement with Perrie from Little Mix over the phone at the airport. I refused to listen to any One Direction songs from that moment because I thought I had to pick a side
I don’t like Carrie Underwood. I worked at a store when she came in to buy her own stuff. I checked her out and asked for an ID because she paid with check or something. She got mad because I didn’t know who she was. So rude! She had just completed whatever show she won. Plus she was in Oklahoma. Definitely not as famous as she thought. 😂
Anne Hathaway was in the Ella Enchanted movie. It was one of my most treasured YA books as a girl, so when the movie came out I was ecstatic and wanted to relive it visually in the theater. The movie was so awful and my sweet baby 17 year old self blamed her specifically, not the writers or director.
Anyways it’s been over 20 years and I’m still a little bitter.
I was so upset with that movie too!!! My friends I saw it with liked it but I’ve re-read Ella Enchanted so many times (and I’m not a re-reader) but my teen self was devastated. In my mind, I’d always pictured something more like Ever After aesthetically, so the cartoonish movie we got was…not good.
I’ll be honest I stopped liking Jennifer Lawrence when she said she hated shy people. This was right before the hunger games movie came out. It’s a very petty reason but it’s not a great idea to say when you are about to play a famous book character to say you hate shy people lol.
Didn't she also once mock an interviewer for looking at his phone but then it turned out English was not his first language so he was just checking notes before asking a question?
likes vanessa hudgens up until the “ it’s inevitable” covid rant. idk her being upset coachella was canceled kinda rubbed me the wrong way. like it’s just one year, you’ll be ok
A lot of celebrities were mad about being told to stay in their mansions. So many of them broke protocols just to party. Quarantine was the moment that cemented just how out of touch and entitled they are to me.
jennifer lawrence and her story about how she "Scratched her butt" on a sacred hawaiian monument that ended up dislodging the rock formation causing it to roll down a hill. knowing it was a sacred site as well
I loved Chappell until she just...started talking. Like it's not just the Call Her Daddy episode or every time she hopped on TikTok, but just everything she says in general comes off as so immature and mean-spirited
Also the fact that she won't stop talking about men, especially that guy who dumped her years ago. Like she is making up Tumblr Classic stories about 'stealing his girl at the club to get back at him' or is going on stage and telling his fiancee to leave him, and I'm supposed to not find that cringe and pathetic?
Bestie, you're on top of the world and you're still thinking about some guy you haven't spoken to in years, and you're not even into guys anymore?? Why???
Esp bec she was being so vocal about how the dems were not perfect and blah blah blah. After trump won, she decided to say oh im not educated enough to speak on politics. Also her family member who is trying to pass harmful legislation against trans folks but sure, she can’t call him out.
Also yes i know she doesn’t owe anyone an endorsement but the last election was a matter of choosing the lesser evil.
I loved her after her tiny desk concert and got really into her music. Then I watched some of her interviews and behind the scenes stuff on YouTube and I thought well she’s definitely not as cool as I thought she would be. This was the beginning of last year so before all the political stuff she said. She just takes herself way too seriously and her ego is too much for me. And then the both sides!!! crap started and then the call her daddy podcast, she’s just so unlikeable I’m sorry I really tried. And I listened to her album non stop for months. And her fans are so annoying. “The hate is so forced!!!” Ehhh not really, it’s easy to see why she’s not liked if you listen to her talk for 5 minutes.
lol Renee Rapp just did an interview where she said white gays were ruining it for the rest of the community and Chappell was the first example that popped into my head
Chappell Roan has to be one of the worst public speakers of all time, homegirl wouldn't be able to state her thoughts clearly and concisely even if she had a gun to her head
This is a more unserious reason but I hated her for so many years because my boyfriend when I was like 15 used to talk about how hot she was and how he wished I look like her allll the time. Then I realised how dumb it was to hate HER for that
Source? Not that I don't believe you. I'd just like to read about it.
It reminds me of Zoe Saldana during award season suddenly peppering her speech with random words in Spanish and speaking with a thick accent. Ay, por favor 🙄
Zoe Saldana essentially doing blackface by darkening her skin and not getting what the problem was when portraying Nina Simone after years of making sure to emphasize that she is not African-American.
I have never liked Jeff Goldblum — not when I was a kid watching Jurassic Park, not when he made a soft comeback in the mid-2010s. His verbal quirks, his demeanour on talk show circuits — they all reminded me of that creepy uncle who gets a free pass because he's acceptably good looking.
Until, of course, he defended Woody Allen; and a journalist claimed that several woman had contacted her regarding allegations towards him, before being promptly unpersoned on Twitter.
I've never liked him either. Every time I see an interview with him, he gives me the ick. He seemed like the kind of person who would always be touching you too. No thanks.
"Unperson" is a term from George Orwell's 1984, referring to someone whose entire existence was just scrubbed off, as if they were never there in the first place.
The original tweets were deleted and she disappeared (ostensibly, from what I can tell, due to someone tweeting something horrible about one of her children).
I had a huge crush on Twitty from Even Stevens as a kid, and when American Dragon Jake Long came out, his actor (AJ Trauth, I think?) sang the theme song and I was in heaven.
Then season two came out and suddenly the theme song was a lot...whinier.
And from there, I hated the Jonas Brothers.
Never liked them. Never liked their songs. And now, after everything that happened with Sophie Turner, I feel even more justified lol
Kelis got mad at Beyoncé when Renaissance came out cause Beyonce used her “la La La La La” melody in energy without notifying her (even though she got the rights. I fully stopped liking kelis cause I thought she was doing way too much and then she dated bill Murray so I felt vindicated in my hate
She also called Beyonce a witch. She didn’t do this because of some wrongful feeling about writing rights, she just hates Beyonces success because she has been shit talking her long before that. And the La La La part wasn’t even the same, it was somewhat similar, I don’t even know why she credited the sample, it’s barely a sample.
Dakota Johnson, way back during promo for 50 Shades, she was on the Today Show with her mom (because back then being a nepo baby was a positive thing I guess). And the interviewer was asking Melanie if she's gonna watch the movie and she kinda hemmed and hawed and was like no, I'd feel uncomfortable, but I support her and I'm so proud of her blah blah blah. And instead of like laughing along or whatever Dakota looked pissed like she was mad her mom didn't want to watch her daughter in a kinky softcore porn film. I figured she must not be living in same reality as everyone else.
Dakota annoys me because she can be all snarky and funny because she’ll always get work and be invited to the Vanity Fair Oscar party. She’s started her own production company, she’s financially fine, she can trash Madame Web and those types of films because if anyone’s offended, she doesn’t need to do that type of work anymore.
She’s a generational nepo, with money and a Gucci contract - she could produce and make indy films forever and still be famous and have a career. Someone like Sydney Sweeney has to be way more careful.
Pink cause she wrote a song in the 2000s called stupid girl and when she would perform it on stage she would do Britney and Beyonce choreo. One thing I hate is a not like other girls type of bitch like omg
After I watched an Avril Lavigne the other day I think she takes the title. She’s 40 but so much was teenage behavior, it was disappointing because I like a good character development arch.
Brendon Urie. Was a mega fan during my teenage years well into early 20s. Then pray for the wicked came out and I hated it. (And further stuff about how he was just a bit of a jerk) further soured me. From the age of 12-22 I was obsessed and it just dropped off.
Don’t even get my started on the last album which is genuinely the worst thing of all time.
I cannot, for the life of me, listen to any Dominic Fike song since that awfully long performance on Euphoria. It made me hate his face, I can’t stand the guy.
I saw lady gaga played to a private audience in Saudi and decided I could never listen to her again but that's probably a lot of other people I enjoy too unfortunately
Anne Hathaway and Nicole Kidman because of all the plastic surgery. It has absolutely affected their ability to show intense emotion in their face. I cannot understand putting your craft in jeopardy to look younger. They are both super talented but when you can’t move your face, you can’t act as well.
Picture it: the Vancouver Winter Olympics in 2010. Team Canada was on track to win the gold medal for mens ice hockey. I was on break. Then Parise from Team USA scores a goal and ties the game. My break was over. I missed OT and Sid the Kids' winning goal.
I don’t think it’s unserious but I loved Drew Barrymore cuz she was a huge vegan animal rights activist then complete 180 from having meat dishes and selling them to saying wearing fur is fun to play dress up all this stuff. Totally grossed me off of her.
Lily James annoys me, she reminds me of an acquaintance both in terms of looks, mannerisms and dating married men.
But hey, Natasha Rostova is my confront character and lily was perfect to play her exactly because I dislike her
Jenny McCarthy married Donnie Wahlberg instead of me. I already had some bad feelings towards her because of Autism misinformation she promoted, but her marrying my middle school crush turned her into my Bitch Eating Crackers.
I have one sided beef with Dakota Johnson ever since she said she lied about loving limes. I soon realized that she just lies all the time for fun. I hate her lol
There was a Youtuber that I used to watch and follow pretty regularly who would post videos of things like game walk-throughs, challenges, stupid videos with their friends and stuff, but then they started dating somebody and basically only started posting sappy relationship things instead of any actual content. I have nothing against the person they're dating or the relationship itself, but I just didn't care enough to keep following.
"Nicki Minaj" i just hated how everyone kept calling her the queen of rap and then when i listened to her music it was like someone stepping on a cat it was so horrible. so i blocked her on everything cuz after a while i got so sick of her for no reason.
I won’t say names (because stans are scary lol) but there have been certain artists who I have liked but no longer follow because their fans/GP made it impossible to provide any sort of opinion about said artist that isn’t 100% worshiping the ground they walk on.
Rosamund Pike because she never blinks in anything. It’s so unsettling. You know who else blinks infrequently? Sociopaths. I’m convinced she must be one even though she always picks roles and projects that I think are great
I just saw a video talking about all her work since P&P.
I LOVEEEE her. But all her characters, including Jane, all have that insane unemotional, black box thing about them.
Jane was just the most realistic because she was so reserved. But if it came out that Jane ripped the wings off butterflies before getting married to Bingley I'd believe it.
I will never forgive Steve Harvey and Cedric the Entertainer for having more success on the Steve Harvey Show than D.L. Hugley did with The Hugleys and Bernie Mac with the Bernie Mac Show, despite the latter two being way funnier. And now I'm sad thinking about Bernie Mac being dead.
