What’s up guys, it’s Emile Ennis Jr. with Clevver News, and long gone are the days where
celebs could get away with mistreating fans, but some celebrities have quickly learned
the hard way that every bout of bad behavior almost always ends up online… and boy does
this viral TikTok trend expose some serious TEA.
While in the midst of quarantine, many people have turned to social media platforms like
TikTok for some added entertainment over the past few months.
But all thanks to one Manhattan hostess named Julia Carolan, a new TikTok trend was born
back in July, in which she exposed A-list celebrities who were rude, bad tippers or
in some cases, genuinely kind to her and the rest of the restaurant staff.
Julia’s 2-part videos gained so much traction on TikTok, that Hailey Bieber even responded
to her video and apologized if she ever came across as rude.
Clearly this type of insider scoop is the content that fans live for, and not gonna
lie, I, too, couldn't help but click on the videos to see what all the fuss was about.
Fast forward a few months later when 20-year-old musician Kat Leigh, posted a video to TikTok,
taking a whole different approach on the “celebrity dirt” content.
“Does anybody have any, like, wicked random celebrity beef?”
Kat asked fans to chime in on their own cringey celeb experiences just before admitting that
she and Bob Saget have had beef since 2013.
She said QUOTE, “I’ve talked about this before, but just trust me on the fact that
we have never been on good terms with each other.
We have always been in a fight.
We have always been arguing.”
Although Kat didn’t go into detail about why these two don’t see eye to eye, she
also revealed that he’s gone so far as to block her on Instagram twice and have just
never gotten along.
This video, in turn, opened the floodgates for people to chime in with their own unpleasant
experiences with celebrities, like one user, named Rachel, who recalled her unpleasant
interaction with Kendall Jenner while attending the same high school.
Rachel explained that this run-in with Kendall happened about 30 minutes before a high school
football game as she was standing in the bleachers waiting for a friend when this happened:
“And instead of going around me or saying, ‘excuse me,’ she stood next to me and
glared at me, and then I turned to her and waited for her to say something and she never
did.
So I moved out of the way and said, ‘You’re excused!’
And then she looked at me up and down, scoffed and then walked away.”)
Another fan claimed that Anna Kendrick was anything but kind to her while she was working
as an event planner at a restaurant while seven months pregnant.
The user named Theresa explained that the entire cast of Pitch Perfect came into the
restaurant after filming the first movie,
“Didn’t know who any of these people were at the time.
Walk up to the table to greet them, welcome them, ask them if they needed anything.
And anna kendrick looks me up and down, she looks down at my belly, looks up at me, smirks,
and completely ignores me and didn’t even speak.”
Theresa said that everybody else at the table was so nice and that some of the cast even
rubbed her belly… unfortunately Anna was not one of them…
Although she claims that she’s still a diehard stan of Ariana Grande, a TikTok user named
Sarah told the story about the time she came across Ari and her brother Frankie Grande
making YouTube videos of Broadway musical skits when she was about 10-11 years old.
Sarah revealed that she and Ari would actually message each other back when YouTube messenger
was a thing, but revealed some not-so-great news about a time when she messaged Ari and
wasn’t exactly met with a welcoming response.
“Well I ended up telling her I was, like, a huge fan of her skits.
Like, I thought they were cute, and she ended up being really freaking mean to me in our
messages!”
She later confirmed that it was, in fact, Ariana who sent the messages when a few years
later, a show called Victorious came out, and what do you know?!
Keep in mind, Sarah did add that this all could’ve been a dream, so there’s a pretty
good chance this entire situation didn’t even happen.
Unfortunately, TikTok user Rebecca Quinn wasn’t dreaming when she and her friends completely
bagged on the Jonas Brothers not knowing that Joe Jonas was standing right behind her.
Rebecca recalled when she and her friends were walking to class in Hollywood back in
2012 AKA “a simpler time,” when they walked past the Pantages Theater as they were advertising
a JoBro concert.
“So I said, ‘Right, I thought everybody grew out of their Jonas Brothers phase back
in, like, 2005.
Jonas Brothers suck!’
I turned around and there was Joe Jonas.
He had heard the whole thing.”
Rebecca went on to leave a message for Joe, saying QUOTE, “Joe, if you’re watching
this, I’m sorry.
Please know that my iTunes library at the time consisted of, like, 70% Jonas Brothers.
I just wanted to be part of the cool kids for once!”
It seems Niall Horan was also looking for some validation when he posted a fiery response
to a fan who wrote on an Instagram photo of the band, “I love Louis”.
TikToker and 1D stan, Tori Kelly, recalled the moment Niall legitimately made her cry
for two days back when she was 12 years old…
“And I got a reply to that comment…
I wasn’t expecting one, but I got one… from none other than Niall!
Jealous ol’ Niall!
All mad that I didn’t say, ‘I love Niall,’ I said, ‘I love Louis,’ and you know what
he said?
‘What the actual f**k?!’
He replied to my comment with, ‘What the actual fuck?!’”
So maybe Niall was just craving a little extra love from a diehard fan, but we’d like to
think he didn’t mean anything totally harmful by his quick Twitter fingers.
And finally, rather than a fan spilling the tea on a celebrity, Trisha Paytas revealed
her negative encounter with Tyra Banks when she was asked to be a guest on the Tyra Banks
Show under “false pretenses” and even accused Tyra of insulting her hair.
Trisha revealed that producers from the show told her that the episode was all about “being
yourself and loving yourself”, but unbeknownst to her, it was all about taking your hair
extensions out and showing off your real hair.
She also detailed her time on set when producers took off her expensive hair extensions and
her nails without really running that by her or her team…
Aside from having a horrible experience, Trisha recalled Tyra’s bad attitude toward her,
which came as quite a shock considering Trisha was sought out by Tyra’s producers to come
on the show.
“She was extremely rude for no reason.
She told me my hair was fried, she was, like, telling the producers to get me off the stage,
I didn’t belong on the show, she didn’t want me on her show.
And to top it all off, they used me and didn’t pay for my plane ticket home.”
Celebrity or not, this all just goes to show that people might remember a positive interaction,
but they will ALWAYS remember a negative one.
Moral of the story?
Be kind to everyone you meet!
