YES YES YES! it’s so annoying how people believe black people cant be shy or introverted we don’t all have the same personality. Some of these people clearly don’t have friends because there is no way they’re attached to people they don’t know like this and them pressing Beyoncé to wash and show her hair (which were people who only had 2 minutes of hair btw) was top level obsessive deranged behavior
Yes! Black people who are quiet are always labeled as either “slow” or stuck up. Due to the change of times they normally don’t say slow anymore, they accuse you of being “on the spectrum” or having some form of autism. It’s like people can’t fathom introverted or shy black people, especially when it comes to black women. They do this to Beyoncé a lot and it’s so annoying.
@@Quinn_M97 Yes!!! they do it so much to her when she’s always talked about how shy she is. When you don’t act stereotypical then they throw all kinds of labels at you like we’re in 2024 how do some of you still have the same mindset with unlimited information accessible to you
I think a lot of them are very lonely and honestly I’ve been saying for a long time, there should be mental health screenings and questionaires before people are able to be online. It’s so true that celebrity women have more pressure placed on them for “relatability” people just feel so entitled to women
There should definitely be some type of monitoring of certain patterns of behavior that can be dangerous. Oh absolutely people have an extreme amount of entitlement to women
Yes and it’s not just men, other women have entitlement to women as well. Women are expected to be people pleasers to everyone. We are taught that we have to be submissive to men and if we don’t want to be friends with every woman then we get called pick me or not a “ girls girl”.
One crazy celebrity stalking story that stunned me was Björk’s stalker. He sent a bomb to her house in London and had a whole video diary before ending his life on camera. It’s so sad how fanatics/stans take things to the next level that can cost a life
I heard about that. I remember that after Ricardo Lopez, the man you’re talking about, died, it got so bad that Björk had to hire bodyguards to take her young son to school.
I don't care about a celebrities being relatable. I think it's better when they are not or have a sense of mystery about them. I don't need to know about their personal lives. Their job, whether, they are a singer, dance, actor etc is to entertain. Simply that.
Exactly, back in the days was wayyyy better when celebs were like mysterious figures where you knew of them but didn't really know them at the same time. THAT was the better era!!!!!!!!
i just saw someone dox a completely different person because they thought she was someone saying rude/nasty things about they kpop favs voice calling this woman ugly and fat and sent her friends to harass her
@@aviparmy-lthatblinkedoncew774 omg i saw that too😭 wildest thing about this is.. THE KPOP STANS SUPPORT IT. they say “oh yeah well why should i care, she says bad things abt my favourite group”
Omg that man breaking into Rihanna's home wanting to have xes with her is terrifying! I remember hearing about what took place with Sandra Bullock and then the man later of f/n himself after them trying to serve an arrest warrant, I know that took a major toll on her. I definitely understand why celebrities are closed off not just for safety but for their sanity as well
Everything you said is facts. especially with fans thinking celebrities owe them something they don't owe you a thing alot of people live breathe and eat the internet, they can't function without it and it's why they have no social skills like you said and why they're so absorbed with celebrities and their lives they really need to put that energy and passion into themselves
Wow, I’ve never seen or even heard about someone trying to pick up Gigi Hadid as a “prank” around 16:30. Her reflex with that elbow was fast. That must have been so scary.
I thought people would learn about having healthy boundaries with celebrities they admired after the deaths of Rebecca Schaeffer, John Lennon, Selena Quintanilla, and Dimebag Darrell. I know Christina Grimmie is another one as she's a recent example of fan obssession gone too far, but those four died before the advent of social media. I feel social media along with the 2000s gossip columns amplified the unhealthy obsessions. Why do you think a lot of celebrities refuse autographs or interact with fans? Sadly, being a public figure is a dangerous field.
The men st a l k ing women and thinking they'd have xes with them just by their presence alone is exactly why women choose the bear! closing the video with Beyonce singing Hollywood was PERFECT.
Girlllll that man really disarmed her alarm system and had all of his bags in her home and thought in his delusional mind that she would sleep with him 🤦🏽♀
Omg all of those fans crowding Kim like that I would've had a full on anxiety att@ck, I know that has to be so scary for some celebrities no matter how long you've been famous because it's thousands of people screaming,chasing,crying for one person. The fact that Brad Pitt had to come over and lift that girl out of the crowd of adults crushing her was terrible they're like zombies
Girl YES. I just became a Beyoncé stan months ago and I’m just in awe of her and her talent. But I’ve never once desired to relate to her…. Even though she’s given plenty of material over the years to do that. The ONLY things I want from her is for her to continue being safe, happy, and to be around for the rest of my life bc I can’t fathom her leaving us 😭. I just want her to keep blessing us with her artistry and performances and her voice. That’s all. She’s Black excellence and carries herself so well and is SO respectable. So I want her to continue to thrive. All that other BS these ppl be talking about and expecting from celebrities is not for me. And the bullying is ridiculous. And when they make moves to protect themselves from it, like what Beyoncé has done over the years, she gets called robot, puppet, and soulless. And “isn’t relatable”. The whole hair thing was RIDICULOUS. I was so upset. And what made me even more mad was the fact that it was BLACK women doing it. It’s always “protect Black women” “believe Black women” “Black women can do anything” until it’s Beyoncé. Then they question her blackness, don’t wanna believe her hair is hers, accuse her of bleaching her skin, etc. and rhey credit everything she does to someone else whether it’s Solange, Tina, or Jay. they don’t mind being anti Black and misogynistic toward her at all and it’s disgusting
I agree with every thing you said! I’ve been a fan of Bey since the 90s because of how incredibly talented she is and how much work she puts into her craft and constantly improving and challenging herself as an artist/person should, it’s inspiring and makes you proud as a black woman to watch another black woman be successful in a business that isn’t always so kind to our people especially during the time when she was coming up and how people spoke about her body, her family etc. and it’s okay to be a fan and have your fave because we all do. It seems as though it’s acceptable to be hateful, rude, nasty and anti-black towards certain celebrities because they don’t like them and think any hate they receive is warranted and honestly it’s comes down to jealousy and feeling like they should have hers or any celebrity’s success and money. You cant even say you like Beyoncé without someone thinking you worship her because these people hate her so much🙄 they don’t realize obsession can be love or hate and some of them are obsessed with hating her.
It’s because they feel like they know them and they are on their level which they fell really low about themselves…..I mean just bring up Beyoncé and watch the jealousy spill.!!
The hatred for Beyoncé just proves that successful black women are the most hated group on the planet, even by other BW. The celebrities that people don’t like are just a reflection of people they don’t like in real life. Beyoncé minds her business and makes music, but yet she has many haters that don’t like her for no reason. The comments under her shade room posts are full of women saying “I’m tired of her”, without giving an explanation as to why. I personally don’t see how anyone can hate Beyonce and I’m not just saying this because she’s my favorite singer. She doesn’t give off an arrogant vibe and seems like a genuinely nice person. She only goes off in her music when people come for her first.
Relatability is okay, but these are megamillionaires. Some billionaires don’t have relatable lives. Maybe relatable moments, but not lives. That ain’t your friend!!!!!!!!! Also to add on is, yes, the sense of entitlement of the fans, thinking they own them and feeling like I’m going to take this away from you if you don’t bow to me, like if this were the other way around.
Being Celebrity always had it weird obsession for so many years but over time it really got worse. You really blame “SOME” I mean “SOME” celebrities because they are catering to there fans while some fan bases( cough, cough. Barbs) they take the love of the Celebrity to a higher power level. It’s okay to be a celebrity but you always have too watch your back plus have a good mental health + space for the heaviness as well use some of your life experiences before you got the fame.❤
People can honestly be insane and out of order. Can you imagine if you let someone in your home and decide not to let them in anymore, and they say how dare you keep me out, you let me in before. You'll be like Excuse me and think they have lost their marbles.
Crucial video. Kudos to you. Just imagine if human beings stopped this irrational obsessive behavior toward these...other human beings in the public eye??? The thing is these celebrities rely on some of these behaviors for the ego boost and career success they gain. Without it, they'd likely go insane as well.
I think the problem I have is that a celebrity's "relatability" is put on a higher pedestal for some reason just cause they're celebrities? Why must celebrities be exactly like us? They're not, they're celebrities. They are a product, manufactured most of the time. People become far too invested in their lives for what? For someone who doesn't even know you exist? Why?
When I was growing up,I related to Lil Kim’s music,I admired her femininity and aesthetic. These Barbs full on worship Nicki Minaj like she is god and are willing to stretch their emotional,psychological and intellectual bandwidth to defend and praise her often problematic behavior. I blame the parents and a lack of social skills
THIS!!! Like we all have/had someone we liked and loved their fashion,music and movies like she said but this level of worship of celebrities is scary and they go on attack mode for any little thing. I cant even blame the parents because a lot of them are full blown adults
What you were saying about black people and introversion...south asians seem to have that issue in reverse lmao Also, I think there is an element of suppressed jealousy in stalkers. That guy was on the mark with that comment about them having primitive psychology
People are weird man I could definitely never do it I have had people stalk me in real life. I wouldn’t be able to handle all that I wish my state had a stalking law because no one believes you until something happens to you. People are beyond man I get being a fan, but I will never get being a fanatic that’s a serious illness
When you tell people that you don’t relate or care about their favorite celebrities it’s wild…I’m like does that person pay you? Do you have a personal relationship with them and if you actually do why is that my concern? I don’t invest too heavily in people that don’t know unless it’s a more impactful social reason🤷🏾♀️
Didnt u meet aaliyah in 1997 though? Thats when genz begins, or 1996. And u were 13 when she first got popular. Like ur obviously young but arent u fro a different generation?
Hi IconicallyIconic can u make a video on Fans throwing things at celebrities during performances because I think that's so rude & disrespectful. The artist is putting on a show & fans decide to throw things at them for fun or run on stage & attack the artist for fun. It's not right. Victims of this have been Harry Styles , Kane Brown , Ava Max , Ariana Grande at coachella, and so many more.
This was a great video. I think that the obsession with relatability and celebrities has ruined pop culture. I don’t see why a celebrity has to be “relatable” in order for people like them. For me, as long as they are not a terrible person and actually I like their music or art I will support them. Pop culture was better before social media took over about 15 years ago. Celebrities were able to maintain autonomy and mystery, and people still were their fans. I think being a celebrity now is terrible for mental health because they have to not only worry about the media and tabloids, but also what random people on social media say to them.
True, but at the same time having social media is a choice more so putting out your life on there aswell if they simply don't do that then that's basically avoided🤷🏾♀️. That's for me, I personally don't have/neither have the interest for social media like that. TH-cam is the only one for me😅😌
You are correct. It's not necessary for them to be relatable but a lot of these celebrities are not good people, at all. The "mystery" worked to cover up a lot of the darkness about them ages ago. Social media, for whatever good it may he worth, stops that from being the standard now.
While you may have contributed to their success you didn't give them their talent and it doesn't justify being an obsessed crazed fan and thinking that you own them because you don't and they don't have to share their lives with you simply because you bought a cd/concert ticket or watched their movie, you paid for a service and got that service after that they don't owe you anything else
I'm sorry but the way I would swing on people grabbing me like that lmao, these people don't know boundaries and it's not just America like some people like to say, it's in a lot of other countries as well. also, I don't know what makes some of these people believe that they had a chance with a celebrity and them being in a relationship "change" that, YOU HAD NO CHANCE TO BEGIN WITH lmaooo
They don't like Beyonce because she reminds them of their failures. She nor any other celebrity owes them anything, you want relatability look to your own family and peers, begging celebrities to be relatable is so thirsty lmao like you're begging people who don't know you to give up their privacy and security for you? because you have no guidance lmaooo they have to do better
18:32 That was a very sweet and sad thing he did there, it says something very profound that that poor girl could have lost her life for such an absurd reason, people who want to see a famous person
Whew this video is everything! So tired of this nonsense “relatability” obsession. I don’t care about Beyoncé’s personal life, I care about her getting her ass on stage to perform her CC album songs. I truly believe some people have deep rooted insecurities and introvert people amplify it.
I disagree about the Beyonce hair washing clip. Beyonce has a history of coming out with lines and products out of nowhere that she rarely markets herself or uses herself. Rihanna pushes her product and her love for maekup can be felt. Her love of fashion can be felt in a line or piece she creates or helps create. The same cannot be said for Beyonce. One of the downsides of Beyonce's perceived elusiveness and necessary rights to privacy is that it makes many of her business ventures outside of music come across as inauthentic and cash grabs due to a lack of back and forth with the fans that is needed from time to time. Yes, there were fans that were obsessed with seeing her hair just to see if it's long, but many fans needed to see her using her own products and that is valid. Up until that video she didn't do that. But I agree with everything else in this video. This level of attachment to complete strangers is SICKENING!
This is the problem every time Beyonce is mentioned Rihanna is brought up and it's tiring. back in the day celebrities came out with lines, did a commercial/ advertising and bounced and made millions. People are going to buy what they want to buy period and I would rather a review come from a regular person than a celebrity who is going to tell you everything you want to hear about their brand, they're not going to tell you anything negative because you are a consumer they want to purchase their products. It's all a cash grab from all celebrities, they want your money. I love Rihanna down but even with her love for fashion she shut down her Fenty line because the prices were out of range for the everyday customer. Everything can't be for everyone, and you can't win all the time because people will complain either way.
The previous commenter made a great point, before social media plenty of celebrities had brands and lines and were not relatable. Beyoncé had a fashion line like many other celebrities in the 2000s and they were no more relatable than she was. They were all in it for the money. Also, I think how relatable a celebrity is different for each person. I like Rihanna, but I don’t buy her makeup because I find her relatable, I buy it because she puts out quality products and I like her music enough to support her business ventures.
You have no idea if RIhanna is actually using her products. Makeup is impossible to tell if the person is actually using them. We only know that she's using it when she's advertising it and even then editing and lighting can make her makeup look better than it actually is. The same goes for her lingerie. We never see her wearing her lingerie unless she's specifically advertising it. Beyonce at least when it came to her clothing line actually wore her clothes when she was rehearsing in her documentary. This false narrative that Rihanna is more relateable and actually wears her products is so stupid. Do you honestly think she's wearing lingerie made in sweatshops that tear apart after one wash? And unlike Rihanna Beyonce has documented proof of actually being involved in creating her outfits and designing them. That's not the case with Rihanna. You have no idea whether she actually designed any of her stuff.
@@diamondsfursexpensivethings They look for any reason to come on the internet and live vicariously through celebrities like Rihanna as if she knows them or cares (and i've been a Rih fan since day 1) she wants your money just like they all do! everyone's marketing is different. They're both two beautiful talented black women but because they have one sided beef with her they always look for ways to come for her, while wearing the brands of yt ppl and fawning over their brands even when they have a history of disrespecting our ppl
I think your being rather dense and unrealistic, yes having a parasocial obsession with celebrities is not healthy but celebrities aren’t completely innocent in why some of their fans have such an obsession with them especially when it comes to kpop idols, which part of their job is to egg on their fans in making them think their connection is personal and special, when you ask something of people especially monetarily, don’t expect them to not want something in return, beyonce promoted her product asking fans to support it and buy it and in return all they asked was to see her using it on her own hair, I don’t think that was too much to ask of her whether they “know how to wash their own hair or not” that wasn’t asking much of her considering she’s trying to sell a personal product of hers she supposedly developed but won’t show it being used on her own hair? c’mon, some people don’t expect much or anything from celebrities but when you ask people of things don’t expect them to not want something in return
First off honey! Let’s be clear, you can make a comment without being disrespectful and rude, you don’t know me and like I constantly say keep it cute or get your feelings hurt. 😊the dense one is YOU, a long drawn out comment with not an ounce of punctuation, how dreadful. It’s YOU’RE not YOUR- you’re = you are. Your = belonging to. The fact that you’re so connected with celebrities that;that spirit in you made you wanna jump up and type out this long comment is quite sad babe. SECONDLY, I said what I said you either buy the product or you simply DON’T. Do you really think a celebrity is going to tell you “my product doesn’t work well”?…they’re there to sell you something, you should want reviews from an average person who has no gain from giving you the truth about a product. Did I mention K-pop idols? Like I SAID YOU GET A SERVICE and pay them for that. The fact that this entire video is about the dangers of celebrity obsession and how they’ve harmed others and all you took from that is defending a bunch of lonely, unhinged maniac fans is absurd. Not having an obsession with a celebrity is unrealistic? Lmao Jesus be some self love and self esteem
@@iconicallyiconic lmaoooo yes gobbled her right up 😂 not her defending her being an o b s es s I v 3 fan. Once she mentioned Kpop I knew she was one of them ones
It’s because they feel like they know them and they are on their level which they fell really low about themselves…..I mean just bring up Beyoncé and watch the jealousy spill.!!
Absolutely! the mere mention of her name makes them so angry, how does a person you’ve never met stir up that much negative emotion in you 😩 it has to be tiring

Do you have a personal relationship with them and if you actually do why is that my concern? I don’t invest too heavily in people that don’t know unless it’s a more impactful social reason🤷🏾♀️
It's pretty sad to see people still act like this in 2024. Get off the programming and conditioning train, for real.
@@TheRetroWoman80 the para social relationship has really driven people to insanity tbqh
This was a great video…
Good thing I'm a younger Gen Z because I would never be into this delusional fandom nor seek validation from them.
Didnt u meet aaliyah in 1997 though? Thats when genz begins, or 1996. And u were 13 when she first got popular. Like ur obviously young but arent u fro a different generation?
@@serenitysubs933yeah I’m confused by this too because Gen Z starts at 1996 and if she was already 13 she is a millennial like me
Hi IconicallyIconic can u make a video on Fans throwing things at celebrities during performances because I think that's so rude & disrespectful. The artist is putting on a show & fans decide to throw things at them for fun or run on stage & attack the artist for fun. It's not right. Victims of this have been Harry Styles , Kane Brown , Ava Max , Ariana Grande at coachella, and so many more.
This was a great video. I think that the obsession with relatability and celebrities has ruined pop culture. I don’t see why a celebrity has to be “relatable” in order for people like them. For me, as long as they are not a terrible person and actually I like their music or art I will support them. Pop culture was better before social media took over about 15 years ago. Celebrities were able to maintain autonomy and mystery, and people still were their fans. I think being a celebrity now is terrible for mental health because they have to not only worry about the media and tabloids, but also what random people on social media say to them.
True, but at the same time having social media is a choice more so putting out your life on there aswell if they simply don't do that then that's basically avoided🤷🏾♀️. That's for me, I personally don't have/neither have the interest for social media like that. TH-cam is the only one for me😅😌
I also agree it was wayyyyyyyyyyy better back then❤❤
You are correct. It's not necessary for them to be relatable but a lot of these celebrities are not good people, at all.
The "mystery" worked to cover up a lot of the darkness about them ages ago. Social media, for whatever good it may he worth, stops that from being the standard now.
Not to sound biblical, but without us they are nothing literally
While you may have contributed to their success you didn't give them their talent and it doesn't justify being an obsessed crazed fan and thinking that you own them because you don't and they don't have to share their lives with you simply because you bought a cd/concert ticket or watched their movie, you paid for a service and got that service after that they don't owe you anything else
Saying that they’re nothing is disgusting. They’re HUMANS! they’re not your property. Are you God? Did you create them? no
But what are you without them is the real question…
@@prestonpfeiffer that part!
How is this biblical?
VERY good video! 🫶🏾💖
I'm sorry but the way I would swing on people grabbing me like that lmao, these people don't know boundaries and it's not just America like some people like to say, it's in a lot of other countries as well. also, I don't know what makes some of these people believe that they had a chance with a celebrity and them being in a relationship "change" that, YOU HAD NO CHANCE TO BEGIN WITH lmaooo
They don't like Beyonce because she reminds them of their failures. She nor any other celebrity owes them anything, you want relatability look to your own family and peers, begging celebrities to be relatable is so thirsty lmao like you're begging people who don't know you to give up their privacy and security for you? because you have no guidance lmaooo they have to do better
18:32 That was a very sweet and sad thing he did there, it says something very profound that that poor girl could have lost her life for such an absurd reason, people who want to see a famous person
Whew this video is everything! So tired of this nonsense “relatability” obsession. I don’t care about Beyoncé’s personal life, I care about her getting her ass on stage to perform her CC album songs. I truly believe some people have deep rooted insecurities and introvert people amplify it.
I have to finish when I get off
I disagree about the Beyonce hair washing clip. Beyonce has a history of coming out with lines and products out of nowhere that she rarely markets herself or uses herself. Rihanna pushes her product and her love for maekup can be felt. Her love of fashion can be felt in a line or piece she creates or helps create. The same cannot be said for Beyonce. One of the downsides of Beyonce's perceived elusiveness and necessary rights to privacy is that it makes many of her business ventures outside of music come across as inauthentic and cash grabs due to a lack of back and forth with the fans that is needed from time to time. Yes, there were fans that were obsessed with seeing her hair just to see if it's long, but many fans needed to see her using her own products and that is valid. Up until that video she didn't do that. But I agree with everything else in this video. This level of attachment to complete strangers is SICKENING!
This is the problem every time Beyonce is mentioned Rihanna is brought up and it's tiring. back in the day celebrities came out with lines, did a commercial/ advertising and bounced and made millions. People are going to buy what they want to buy period and I would rather a review come from a regular person than a celebrity who is going to tell you everything you want to hear about their brand, they're not going to tell you anything negative because you are a consumer they want to purchase their products. It's all a cash grab from all celebrities, they want your money.
I love Rihanna down but even with her love for fashion she shut down her Fenty line because the prices were out of range for the everyday customer. Everything can't be for everyone, and you can't win all the time because people will complain either way.
The previous commenter made a great point, before social media plenty of celebrities had brands and lines and were not relatable. Beyoncé had a fashion line like many other celebrities in the 2000s and they were no more relatable than she was. They were all in it for the money. Also, I think how relatable a celebrity is different for each person. I like Rihanna, but I don’t buy her makeup because I find her relatable, I buy it because she puts out quality products and I like her music enough to support her business ventures.
You have no idea if RIhanna is actually using her products. Makeup is impossible to tell if the person is actually using them. We only know that she's using it when she's advertising it and even then editing and lighting can make her makeup look better than it actually is. The same goes for her lingerie. We never see her wearing her lingerie unless she's specifically advertising it. Beyonce at least when it came to her clothing line actually wore her clothes when she was rehearsing in her documentary. This false narrative that Rihanna is more relateable and actually wears her products is so stupid. Do you honestly think she's wearing lingerie made in sweatshops that tear apart after one wash? And unlike Rihanna Beyonce has documented proof of actually being involved in creating her outfits and designing them. That's not the case with Rihanna. You have no idea whether she actually designed any of her stuff.
@@diamondsfursexpensivethings They look for any reason to come on the internet and live vicariously through celebrities like Rihanna as if she knows them or cares (and i've been a Rih fan since day 1) she wants your money just like they all do! everyone's marketing is different. They're both two beautiful talented black women but because they have one sided beef with her they always look for ways to come for her, while wearing the brands of yt ppl and fawning over their brands even when they have a history of disrespecting our ppl
Literally irl perfect blue
Welp, that's the price of fame 🤷🏾♀️
💯
I think your being rather dense and unrealistic, yes having a parasocial obsession with celebrities is not healthy but celebrities aren’t completely innocent in why some of their fans have such an obsession with them especially when it comes to kpop idols, which part of their job is to egg on their fans in making them think their connection is personal and special, when you ask something of people especially monetarily, don’t expect them to not want something in return, beyonce promoted her product asking fans to support it and buy it and in return all they asked was to see her using it on her own hair, I don’t think that was too much to ask of her whether they “know how to wash their own hair or not” that wasn’t asking much of her considering she’s trying to sell a personal product of hers she supposedly developed but won’t show it being used on her own hair? c’mon, some people don’t expect much or anything from celebrities but when you ask people of things don’t expect them to not want something in return
First off honey! Let’s be clear, you can make a comment without being disrespectful and rude, you don’t know me and like I constantly say keep it cute or get your feelings hurt. 😊the dense one is YOU, a long drawn out comment with not an ounce of punctuation, how dreadful. It’s YOU’RE not YOUR- you’re = you are. Your = belonging to. The fact that you’re so connected with celebrities that;that spirit in you made you wanna jump up and type out this long comment is quite sad babe. SECONDLY, I said what I said you either buy the product or you simply DON’T. Do you really think a celebrity is going to tell you “my product doesn’t work well”?…they’re there to sell you something, you should want reviews from an average person who has no gain from giving you the truth about a product. Did I mention K-pop idols? Like I SAID YOU GET A SERVICE and pay them for that. The fact that this entire video is about the dangers of celebrity obsession and how they’ve harmed others and all you took from that is defending a bunch of lonely, unhinged maniac fans is absurd. Not having an obsession with a celebrity is unrealistic? Lmao Jesus be some self love and self esteem
@@iconicallyiconic lmaoooo yes gobbled her right up 😂 not her defending her being an o b s es s I v 3 fan. Once she mentioned Kpop I knew she was one of them ones
It’s because they feel like they know them and they are on their level which they fell really low about themselves…..I mean just bring up Beyoncé and watch the jealousy spill.!!
Absolutely! the mere mention of her name makes them so angry, how does a person you’ve never met stir up that much negative emotion in you 😩 it has to be tiring
I do not know why my comment doubled lol.
