It is known that celebrity rivalries are as much a part of Hollywood than red carpets
and award shows -- whether it be backstabbing, name calling, man-stealing, or social media
slamming, there have been so, so many public fallouts between some of Hollywood’s biggest
stars.
So today on Top 10 Beyond the Screen, I’m going to be counting down our list of the
Top 10 Biggest Celebrity Feuds In Hollywood.
Let’s jump in.
10 Eminem Vs Machine Gun Kelly In August of 2018, Eminem released his surprise
album, Kamikaze, and on that album he decided to take aim at fellow rappers Lil Yachty,
Drake, Lil Pump, Tyler the Creator, Joe Budden, Lil Xan, and of course, Machine Gun Kelly.
Eminem directed a few rhymes at MGK on the song Not Alike, I quote, “But next time
you don’t gotta use Tech Nine if you wanna come at me with a submachine gun/and I’m
talking to you but you already know who the F you are, Kelly/ I don’t use sublimes and
sure as F don’t sneak diss/but keep commenting on my daughter Hailie…”
--- Well then.
The lyrics seamingly stems from a 2012 tweet MGK posted commenting on how attractive he
thought Eminem’s daughter was, she was just 16 years old at the time.
The tweet said, I quote, “Okay, so I just saw a picture of Eminem’s daughter...and
I have to say, she is hot AF, in the most respectful way possible because Em is King.”
In response to Eminem’s track, MGK released Rap Devil which was a poke at the Eminem moniker,
Rap God, a track that held literally no punches.
Eminem was quick with a comeback, putting out the track called Killshot, with artwork
that featured the likeness of MGK.
MGK then responded with an instagram post, captioned, “He missed”, with the picture
showing MGK standing in front of a crow wearing a Killshot shirt, middle finger high.
9 Kim Kardashian Vs Chloe Grace Moretz This feud started a few years back in 2016,
after Kim infamously released her nude selfie onto Twitter, which of course went viral.
Chloe Grace Moretz was not a big fan of this, tweeting, “There’s a huge difference in
respecting the platform that you’re given as a celebrity and ‘slut shaming’, something
I never have done and - would never do.”
Kim wasn’t a fan of this, responding to her tweet with, I quote, “Let’s all welcome
Chloe Grace Moretz to twitter, since no one knows who she is.
Your nylon cover is cute boo.” oooh.
The shade!
Now, the two don’t seem to have made amends since then, and Chloe seems to have no regrets
tweeting out to Kim in the first place.
She recently stated, I quote, “That picture wasn’t linked to body confidence.
It wasn’t #BodyConfidence or #LoveWhoYouAre.
It was done in a slightly voyeuristic light, which I felt was a little inappropriate for
young women to see.”
Preach, Chloe!
8 Paris Hilton Vs Nicole Richie Paris and Nicole were childhood best friends
who dominated reality TV when they starred together on the popular series The Simple
Life back in 2003, which followed the pair as they travelled across the county, rid themselves
of money of material items and lived a simple life.
However, at the height of the shows fame the two suddenly were at war with one another.
Paris Hilton stated, I quote, “It’s no big secret that Nicole and I are no longer
friends.
Nicole knows what she did and that’s all I’m ever going to say about it.”
Now, according to some reports, Nicole was jealous of the attention Paris was receiving,
so she threw a party to celebrate Paris’s appearance on the sketch show SNL, and followed
it with a screening of Paris’s notorious 2003 sex tape.
Since then, the two made up and filmed two more seasons of “The Simple Life”, however
back in 2014 Nicole appeared on Andy Cohen’s Watch What Happen Live, stating that the two
don’t talk much anymore, but she does still consider her to be a friend.
7 Elton John Vs Madonna The is one of the most notorious feuds on
our list, with this pair being long-time frenemies, with a feud that became more apparent during
the 2012 Golden Globe Awards.
The two singers were pitted against each other in the Best Original Song category, and prior
to the ceremony, Elton John was interviewed by Caron Daly, asking him who had the best
chance of winning.
When Madonna’s name came up, Elton responded with, “She doesn’t have an f-ing chance
of winning.”
Madonna responded in kind stating that those were fighting words, and, of course, the Queen
of Pop came out on top and beat out Elton for the grand prize.
Good on you, Madge!
6 Anjelic Huston Vs Jackie Weaver This is a fresh feud for all your Hollywood
gossip fanatics out there.
In May of this year, Angelica Huston was on her press tour John Wick: Chapter 3 during
which time she made some remarks about her contemporaries and their career choices.
One jab in particular seemed to be directed at Jackie Weaver and her choice to do the
film Poms.
I quote, “Quite honestly, I’m looking for movies that impress me in some way, that
aren’t apologetically humble or humiliating like, Band of cheerleaders gets back together
for one last hurrah.
You know, an old lady cheerleader movie.”
Oooof, shots fired.
Weaver’s film Poms if of course that exacts premise, so she had some choice words for
Huston, stating, “Well, she can go f*ck herself.”
However, in a radio interview with Andy Cohen, Huston apologized, well a little bit, stating,
“I hope I didn’t hurt anyone’s feelings.
And If I didn, I hope they come back at me.”
Well, then, Jackie.
Now’s your chance.
5 Alyssa Milano Vs Shannen Doherty Growing up, WB’s Charmed was my absolute
favorite show, and Alyssa Milano and Shannen Doherty were 2 of the 3 stars of that show,
that was up until Doherty was fired and replaced by Rose McGowen.
According to sources, Milano and Doherty had a lot of conflicts behind the scenes which
resulted in Doherty leaving.
When Milano appeared on Andy Cohen’s show, she stated, I quoted, “I don’t know if
she got fired, we never really found out what happened.
I can tell you that we were on the air with her for three years and there were definitely
some rough days.”
Since then it seems the two have somewhat buried the hatchet with Milano stating, “What
happens 15 years ago or however long ago that was, it’s irrelevant.”
Milano also very quickly came to Doherty’s side when she was diagnosed with breast cancer
back in 2015.
4 Ariana Grande Vs Pete Davidson Ariana Grande and Pete Davidson infamously
called off their engagement on October 14th of last year, however, the SNL star was very
quick to make jokes at the expense of his ex-fiance in early November.
During a promo clip for an SNL episode, Pete jokingly proposed to musical guest Maggie
Rogers, stating, I quote, “Hey Maggie, I’m Pete.
You wanna get married?”
However, she rejects him and Pete states, “Zero for three.”
Yikes.
After the promo was released Grande tweeted, I quote, “For somebody who claims they hate
relevancy you sure love clinging to it huh.”
Oooof.
I can’t deal with this shade.
She then tweeted, “Thank you, next” before deleting the tweets.
And then, of course, on November 3rd Grande released a track inspired by her ex-boyfriends
called Thank You, Next, with some of the lyrics stating, I quote, “Even almost got married/
and for Pete I’m so thankful / Wish I could thank you to Malcom/ Cause he was an angel/
Look what you taught me / and for that I say / thank you, next/ i’m so f-ing grateful
for my ex.”
3 Taylor Swift Vs Kanye West This is perhaps one of the most epic feuds
we have on our entire list, with this fall out garnering media attention all over the
world.
Now, this one began all the way back in 2009 at the MTV Video Music Awards when Kanye West
infamously interrupted Taylor Swift’s acceptance speech, however, the two publicly made up
the following year with West even discussing doing new music with Taylor in 2015.
I quote, “She wants to get in the studio and we’re definitely going to go in.
I don’t have an elitism about music, I don’t discriminate.”
However, their music plans fell through when Kanye released his song “Famous” in 2016
where he rapped the lyrics, I quote, “I feel like me and Taylor might still have sex/Why?
I made that b**ch famous.”
Taylor retaliated by vocalling her dislike of the song at the 2016 American Music Awards,
even accusing Kanye of undermining her success.
Now, this is where Kim Kardashian joins the feud.
She jumped in to defend Kanye by posting several videos of Taylor and Kanye discussing the
song, and proving that Taylor approved of the track’s message from the very beginning.
2 Bette Davis Vs Joan Crawford Now, a lot of you will be surprised that this
didn’t make our number one spot, but you’ll see why very soon.
Bette Davis and Joan Crawford were hollywood legends who had a just as legendary feud that
started in 1935 when Davis fell in love with actor Franchot Tone on the set of “Dangerous”.
However, the newly divorced Crawford quickly tied Tone down and ended up marrying him.
The feud continued when the two worked together on the iconic 1962 film Whatever Happened
to Baby Jane?
For which Davis was nominated for an Oscar for, however Crawford allegedly campaigned
against her and even went onstage to accept the award on behalf of the winning actress
Anne Bancroft.
Younger viewers will also be familiar with the feud as it was brought to life on screen
for the FX Show “Feud” starring Jessica Lange and Susan Sarandon.
1 Bella Thorne Vs Whoopi Goldberg On June 15th of this year, a hacker threatened
to release Bella Thorne’s nude photos after they hacked all of her social media.
So, Bella took matters into her own hands and instead released them herself.
I quote, “I’m putting this out because it’s my decision now you don’t get to
take yet another thing from me.”
Most rallied behind the young star, but not Whoopi Goldberg on The View.
The show discussed the situation, but Whoopie didn’t seem to think Bella’s actions were
brave and instead shamed her.
She said, I quote, “Listen, if you’re famous, I don’t care how old you are, you
don’t take nude pictures of yourself.
When they’re hacking you, they’re hacking all of your stuff.
So whether it’s one picture or a million pictures, once you take that picture, it goes
into the cloud and it’s available to any hacker who wants it.
And if you don’t know that in 2019 that this is an issue, I’m sorry.
You don’t get to do that.”
Bella wasn’t going to let Whoopi get the final say though, and she took to her instagram
stories, first writing a long note about upset she was by Whoopi’s stance before announcing
she was canceling her upcoming appearance on The View because she didn’t want to get
beaten down by older women.
She then uploaded a video, through tears she stated, “I’m not going to lie, I want
to say I feel pretty disgusting...I just want to say watching this interview, you made me
feel really bad about myself and I hope you’re happy I really do...I can only imagine all
the kids who have their sh*t released and then they commit suicide.
You’re so crazy for thinking such terrible things on such an awful situation.”
Whoopi failed to respond, but others were quick to come to the defense of Bella and
rightly so.
Well, there we have it!
