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

Someone giving Ringo a bit of a telling off for his 'love and peace' posts...kinda goes against the whole 'love and peace' thing...

Lots of people posting to Cliff Richard this morning too!

Thelikelylass · 24/08/2022 08:25

(i suspect FB has been massively got at but they won't admit it.)

Goldmember · 24/08/2022 08:25

Oh weird, mine has gone like that too that has only just happened. I was on FB at 6.30am and it was fine, full of the usual ads and stuff but fine.

DoingJustFine · 24/08/2022 08:26

Same! It was fine earlier but now my feed is just full of people sending crap memes to Jack Black.

cantthinkofabetterusername · 24/08/2022 08:27

Mines full of posts on Bon Jovi and Oasis' page

UnicornsAndRainbows23 · 24/08/2022 08:27

Me too! Full of posts to Ryan Reynolds page! Weird!

Summersdreaming · 24/08/2022 08:28

Yes! Just had to unfollow Ronaldo, wtf.

Narcheska · 24/08/2022 08:28

My husbands having the same issue. Apparently according to a few blogs I’ve read it’s an issue with Facebook and if you follow celebrities or pages of popular internet people your feed will see all posts directed at them! So then “random” posts are all directed at people you follow

Strangerthanever · 24/08/2022 08:28

Patrick Stewart, or rather messages to him have taken over my feed. He's a nice guy and all, but I'm not that invested in him!

SillyBub · 24/08/2022 08:28

Mine is completely normal. I keep logging out and in again in the hope I'll see this madness. But no. Just the usual mind-numbing crap.

middleager · 24/08/2022 08:29

Yes! Randoms posting on The Beatles page and loads of ads.

AhhSlippedOnMahBeansRitaaa · 24/08/2022 08:30

Oh I feel left out. Mine is normal but I don't follow any celebs Sad

Thethingswedoforlove · 24/08/2022 08:30

Facebook has clearly been hacked.

4FoxxSake · 24/08/2022 08:30

Lots of messages and memes for Oasis on mine 😂

CampervanKween · 24/08/2022 08:30

Mine is just posts to JKRowling 🤣

Fabvegetablegrower · 24/08/2022 08:31

I have David Beckham ones.

SunflowerDuck · 24/08/2022 08:33

Mine is normal but I don't "follow" any famous people and intentionally have a slimmed down Facebook.

Do most people follow famous people then? Is that why this is happening thehre just eeing the feed of people they follow?

ChillinwiththeVillains · 24/08/2022 08:35

I have Marcus Rashford. But tbh since the last update I can only see 3/4s of the page and miss the end of any post. And it doesn’t update very often- so I will see same boring post from old school friend or neighbour all day at top of feed. It is very annoying. Almost like the universe wants me to get a life and stop clicking.

OutDamnedSpot · 24/08/2022 08:36

Mine is full of birthday messages to two people I vaguely know from lots of people I don’t.

Alarchbach · 24/08/2022 08:36

Yes!!! Had to scroll down for ages to find my “normal”’ posts. Don’t know what’s going on. I have reported it to Facebook though.

SillyBub · 24/08/2022 08:37

I also don't follow any celebs and have a normal feed this morning. I do follow quite a lot of pages that relate to my interests and some companies as well but I'm not seeing any of the posts made to their their profiles? Are people only seeing posts to celebrities that they already follow then?

icebearforpresident · 24/08/2022 08:37

People insulting Joe Biden on mine

dementedpixie · 24/08/2022 08:37

Mine is lady gaga, Rihanna and Katy perry

PriamFarrl · 24/08/2022 08:37

Loads of happy birthday messages to a friend.
