Is there any celeb you feel sorry for?

[Soubriquet]

Watching one of mg favourite films again, (Easy A) and it’s got Amanda Bynes in it.

I still feel so sorry for her. She was so talented and I loved her movies and it’s sad to see how she is now. I genuinely hope she gets all the help she needs

I think she stays because leaving would be so much worse. Can you imagine having the full force of Trump's narcissistic bullying rage plus that of all his acolytes and lawyers turned on you? I suspect she keeps her head down as much as she can and hopes he doesn't pay her too much attention and/or that nature takes it's course.

They both have/had strange hair, maybe that's the connection!

Ariana Grande. I think the trauma of the Manchester Arena bombing must be significant. Similar for Taylor Swift re Southport, albeit to a lesser extent as she wasn't there herself.

I think she’s a violent controlling narcissist who tried to get away with bringing an A list celeb down and it backfired on her. I think the entire relationship was toxic due to her. JD is a completely messed up man but dose not have a history of violence like her. Do I think he was violent throughout the relationship? Yes I think there was anger and absolutely disgusting things said. Do I think he’s an abuser no, I think he was married to an abuser who brought out a horrible side to him.

The only reason she’s gone for the quiet life is because she was shown to be what she is.

I don’t think she’s a good mother at all, no narcissist is and as the child of a narcissist I feel very sorry for that child. I also hope it dosnt turn out that poor little girl ends up being another of Elons.

That is sickening. I didn't know any of that.

What is wrong with these pushy stage mothers who sell their kids to show business and feel it is OK for them to be sexualised at such an early age?

Brooke Shields was linked to Michael Jackson (he wouldn't have sexually abused her, so I guess she felt safe with him), but I wonder how she feels about the stories of children being brought to Neverland for sleepovers? Again, what the hell is wrong with these parents?!!!

Vile.

Seriously. Why wasn't her mother charged? What about the people who made those films where she was naked? The purveyors of Playboy magazine?
She's intelligent and reflective and has obviously struggled to come to terms with this "childhood". Sickening.
Do not read about the Playboy photos without steeling yourself.

He's over 18, she would have huge wealth, he'd be fine. He's also just like his Father (big disappointment there, I thought he might be the one who breaks the mould). I think she stays with him because she is greedy and wants even more than she has.

I read somewhere that he was a sweet, kind lad? 🤷‍♀️ who knows.

Anyone out of a boyband, really. Not sure why, I never even liked boybands, but there's been a rash of stuff lately. I can't stand Robbie Williams but at least he is owning the pain and being a prick on his own terms. Liam Payne seemed to be horribly complicated. Harry Styles looks haunted by this point. He never ever says anything of note, but I hope one day he gets it all off his chest, he must have loads of grudges.
It's the way they get preyed upon as young lads and given a version of fame they don't have any control over. Who sees the consequences when they're 18, of shitty tabloid lies fed by your own manager? Being given drugs to get you do perform right on stage? And the rest. There are loads of rumours about one boyband manufacturer (hamster face) and if that all comes out then there's going to be a few breakdowns.

Ivana Trump did ok and wasn't hounded when she left Trump, as far as I recall anyway.

I think there was a moment at the inauguration where he showed kindness and politeness to Joe Biden and Kamala Harris, unlike his horrible sperm donor.

Well.... when Trump was holding one of his unpleasant rallies denigrating anyone and everyone, Barron was smug, he fist pumped a lot, and campaigned for him. So I think he is the same as his siblings.
I appreciate he can't help having the father he has got, but still...

Actually yes, he did that so I shouldn't be so unkind.

Do you believe it? That an international pop star went missing for four weeks? Why did nobody report her missing? Why wasn't her disappearence on the news? Something doesn't add up there.

I thought he was having an affair with his next wife at the time. He was also only up and coming in the new money world, not president of the US with millions of fucked in the head followers.

Doesn't have a history of violence? Maybe not but what he said about wanting to do to Amber in messages shows he has a very violent streak and dark ideations. He was found to have raped her in court in the UK. But of course you think because Depp is an A lister she is automatically guilty and he can do no wrong. I believe if he were a D lister or less you wouldn't defend him.

Also Patrick Duffy of Dallas fame. Both his parents were murdered.

And Phil Spencer when both his parents drowned in that car accident.

All unrelated to actual celebrity but terrible incidents nonetheless.

Someone was murdered at his house and Barrymore tried to keep a career.

She did OK in life. Not so much in death given she is buried on one of his golf courses in an overgrown area with not even a headstone. How her kids allowed this god alone knows.

Fair point.

I remember Mary talking about this on tv a few years ago (he died in a car accident) and i was so moved and impressed by her attitude. She was visibly upset but said, in her usual upbeat way, 'gosh, how lucky we were to have had him in our lives.' To be able to look at something so shattering in that way shows really strength of spirit i think.

Oh I don’t know. While describing a movie he (HS) said “It's like a mooovie”, it’s one of the all time greatest quotes 😁

Why would you feel sorry for a manipulative narcissist? 🤔

He's not the most articulate. But then, I watched I think Andrew Scott say almost exactly the same thing, or was it Paul Mescal? But nobody made a meme out of it. It was just an enthusiastic statement about how big the film felt after the drought of films in the pandemic. Boyband = brainless in a lot of people's heads.

I love the quote and often use it myself 😁
