15 Times Celebrity Outrage That Was Overblown
In the realm of celebrity culture, countless instances of outrage occasionally become sensationalized beyond reason. In the age of social media, it often happens, especially when popular or A-list celebrities express a personal opinion that doesn’t sit well with the masses and gripes the public’s attention, and dominates headlines. Many fans and media outlets take things out of context and blow it out of proportion, leading to widespread condemnation and call for the actor’s cancellation.
Jessica Simpson
One commenter said, “For those who remember it, Jessica Simpson is a totally healthy adult weight after having a baby compared to her tiny teenage heavily controlled pop star weight. Names like Jumbo Jessica for a woman who was a size 4, and tying her entire worth to that.”
Carol Baskin
A second commenter added, “Carol Baskin. All evidence points to her husband disappearing to Puerto Rico with his mistress of his own volition. He had been shipping his favorite classic cars to Puerto Rico for over a year before disappearing. His van was found empty in an airport parking lot. His mistress was also missing. He most likely chartered a small private plane to take him there, where he could go straight to the tarmac and board.
Miley Cyrus
A third commenter posted, “Miley Cyrus for legally smoking salvia with her friends in her home, or when a world-famous photographer took a photo that the media deemed inappropriate, despite it not being her idea and she was a kid AND was covered.”
Britney Spears
This user shared, “Britney Spears when she had her meltdowns. The woman was bullied and harassed at such an insane level. It would make anyone snap.”
Ben Curtis
A poster said, “When The Dude You’re Getting a Dell guy was outed for being a stoner. I mean, duh. I could see that from a mile away.”
“Black-Listed” Celebs
Someone added, “Anytime an actress/actor was blacklisted for speaking up about abuse in Hollywood. Then it turned out Harvey Weinstein is a rapist and covered it up for years. No doubt Feldman and Haim were victims of someone with as much power as he had.”
Michael Phelps
One person shared, “When leaked pictures of gold medalist Michael Phelps smoking weed came out. I think Seth Meyers said it best: “Dad, Dad, Michael Phelps is smoking weed. Does that mean I can?” “After you win 8 gold metals, sure.”
Zelda Williams
A top-liked comment said, “Robin Williams’ daughter, Zelda, took heat for not openly mourning on her social media. People were upset she wasn’t posting pictures of them together. I recall her biting back, saying she had photos up in her home, where it mattered, and to leave her alone. I felt for her.”
Vanessa Hudgens
This person stated, “I always felt bad for Vanessa Hudgens. She had her private photos stolen, posted all over the internet, and then she had to apologize for it.”
Charlie Chaplin
A user mentioned, “Charlie Chaplin was labeled a Communist and was told his re-entry to the United States would be subject to an investigation into his political views. Charlie just decided never to come back to America. Once the documents became unsealed, it was revealed government officials had nothing on him despite publicly stating they did.”
Janet Jackson
This commenter posted, “Janet Jackson’s wardrobe “malfunction.” It was confirmed a while back that Janet’s blackballing from the industry was literally just Les Moonves’ initiative.”
Howard Dean
One poster said, “Howard Dean’s scream. He was giving a talk to motivate his campaign workers.”
Brandi Chastain
Someone shared, “When the female soccer player won and took off her shirt, and had a sports bra under it. My God, you would have thought all of the world just witnessed their first look at a stomach.”
David Bowie
A top-liked comment said, “When David Bowie said he was bisexual in an interview. It really ended up hurting his career in the U.S.”
Sinead O’Connor
Finally, someone added, “Sinead O’Connor calling out the Catholic Church over the abuse of minors. How dare she?”
