Opened up FB this morning and it's just full of people posting to celebrities pages! It's so strange! What is going on??

Yeah mine was a really random load of peoples messages they’d put on other peoples pages!

WeCanBeHappyUnderground · 24/08/2022 07:44

Same here!

Sassy306 · 24/08/2022 07:49

Same... Loads of random messages posted to David Guetta 😂

According to a few on twitter, there was some kind of update to the Facebook platform.... it was bad enough before this update, dont even know why I bother with it these days tbh

TeamSpike · 24/08/2022 07:50

Yes! I keep seeing ones sent Ryan Reynolds page 🤷‍♀️

BreakerOfBras · 24/08/2022 07:51

Everyone's posting to Muse and Green Day on mine...

ThisIsMyHappyFacee · 24/08/2022 07:52

Same!!!

burnoutbabe · 24/08/2022 07:52

I get people posting to the rock, Arnold Schwarzenegger and joe Biden!

Obviously I follow them all. Weird!

ChardonnaysBeastlyCat · 24/08/2022 07:52

My feed is full of American Truckers and Bikers' groups.

I'm not American, have never been interested in HGVs and biking, apart from watching Sons of Anarchy on Netflix a few years ago.

Most baffling.

WhatIsThisPlease · 24/08/2022 07:52

Yes! Random people posting on Harry Kane's page 🤷‍♀️

Wickywickyyow · 24/08/2022 07:53

Yes! David Beckham for me. God he gets some weirdos posting.

ShandaLear · 24/08/2022 07:53

Mine is just adverts. Pretty much on the edge of just getting rid of it now.

AintNobodyHereButUsChickens · 24/08/2022 07:53

I have a lot of Ed Sheeran, Chris Hemsworth, Taylor Swift and Lady Gaga. I hope they fix it soon, it's ridiculous 😂

Glad I'm not the only one!

WhatIsThisPlease · 24/08/2022 07:54

Lots of people tweeting about it too.

Mykittensmittens · 24/08/2022 07:55

Yes all the messages here too but also a massive escalation in ads. I would estimate every other post is a speculative ad for a company I dont
follow eg holiday cabins, clothing brands and pain relief.
Also some posts by the ‘U.K. Government’ which I definitely didn’t receive before or ask to follow!

OddGoingsOn · 24/08/2022 07:55

I feel like I’m missing out. Mine’s completely normal!

Andromachehadabadday · 24/08/2022 07:57

Mine is solidly people posting stuff to Chris Hemsworth

Lampan · 24/08/2022 07:57

Same. It’s probably not ideal for the celebrity pages. I just unfollowed the page as I couldn’t see anything other than these posts. I imagine plenty of people will do the same

Givemeallthegin8 · 24/08/2022 08:00

Yes! Mine was Britney Spears! I unfollowed her as it clogged up the whole feed
wonder what’s going on ?!

AngelsWithSilverWings · 24/08/2022 08:02

Mine is all Muse ,Coldplay, The Beatles and for some strange reason Adele. Also looks like the Ricky Gervaise fans have just woken up too as they've started popping up.

I initially unfollowed them all but they still keep popping up. Then realised it's a Facebook glitch.

Beezknees · 24/08/2022 08:02

Yes I'm seeing loads of posts to The Beatles page. Also I can see my friends "happy birthday" posts that they've sent to other people - people I'm not friends with! Very annoying.

JuneOsborne · 24/08/2022 08:03

Yes! Pictures randoms post to celebs. I thought I'd been hacked.

twilightcafe · 24/08/2022 08:03

FB feels like one of those freebie newspapers that used to be posted through your door: mostly ads and the odd snippet of interesting news.

LoveKingGary · 24/08/2022 08:04

Yep, mine is all posts to JK Rowling! It's so weird.

icelollycraving · 24/08/2022 08:05

Yes. To Ronaldo. I was completely baffled. Basically loads of people posting suiiiiiiii. Odd thing is these aren’t posts on his page so assume pms.
