Do you think celebrities are on Mumsnet?

[SheSaidHummingbird]

I was just imagining Katie Price following the thread about her (not to make this a TAAT). I wonder if well-known people who are often discussed on here would defend themselves without revealing their identity. I think many are; what do you think?

Have just been listening to Jo Brand’s Lippy audiobook.

She mentions Mumsnet a tedious amount.

Don’t think she’s AnyFucker though . Wouldn’t imagine she could be bothered!

😂

It's an interesting question. It makes sense that some celebrities probably like the opportunity to fly under the radar and say whatever they want without it being immortalized in some click bait article.

Haha, me too 😁

I remember seeing a photo of Adele online in a thrift store in America ( this was about five years ago ) so I think celebs like a bargain too and probably shop all over as we do! Despite their millions.
I was a local comedy night and the comedian mentioned mumsnet and a bit of a cheer went up. It was funny.
I'm sure many celebs lurk and journalists definitely come on here ( for stories)

I'm pretty sure Megan markle is on here.

Not long before she had Lilibet there was a whole thread asking about the name, opinions and shortening to Lily. Most posters weren't keen.

I can just imagine that post:-

NC for obvious reasons but I'm looking for a name for DD, who is due sometime this year. We want the name to resemble that of her Great Grandmother. So something along the lines of Queen Elizabeth II. Thanks in advance.

🤣

Why would you think that of Jo Brand?

A tv personality I know is v upfront about checking out reaction on MN after a programme has aired. 'Of course you would, I want to see what people thought of it.'

I imagine absolutely loads of famous people lurk even if they don’t post, let’s face it, if they aren’t living it up at some celebrity bash then they are probably doing what we are all doing, slobbing on the sofa reading mumsnet with one eye on the tv. We are all pretty basic when it comes down to it.

Katherine Ryan mentioned something about that elimination communication thread, didn’t she? I can totally picture her here

I'm sure there are but they are not going to out themselves are they?
I remember one poster saying other posters would be horrified if they knew who she was and some people guessed Katie Hopkins ,which the Op neither confirmed or denied so who knows 🤔

For sure there will be, it’s the perfect place to anonymously voice your opinion especially if your opinion wouldn’t be received favourably on your official Twitter or Insta. It’s also a great place to temperature check other peoples views and trends unless of course it’s a thread swamped with bots or activists.

I love that MN is the great leveller! Every opinion has as much weight as another, assuming it is articulate, well considered, or funny 😁

That's the beauty of it being anonymous, I could be chatting to Brenda from Blackburn or The Duchess of Cambridge and be none the wiser.

Jennifer Saunders mentioned mumsnet when she was being interviewed by Graham Norton once. Something about finding her baby down the bottom of the bed in the morning and mumsnet having a field day about what a terrible mother she is. It definitely sounded like someone who was very familiar with the vipers site!

Doubt it. Mumsnetters like to think they are more influential than they actually are.

To misquote Malfoy
'Katie Price? I didn't know she could read!'

Alex Polizzi was on a thread a while back.

That was a joke, BTW

😂

Then William asks "Yes but was there a diagram? I need to see a diagram..."

"And, not to drip feed, but DH and I have been 'distancing' ourselves from our families and relations between us aren't... great."

I do wonder if they’re on here, I can just imagine Meghan moaning on AIBU that Harry didn’t make 5 meals plus stock from the carcass out of the left over roast chicken dinner he proposed to her over 😂or Kate dreading their wedding! Mumsnet hates weddings at the best of times, imagine having to go to that one and smile 🤦‍♀️

I feel like the amazing Katherine Ryan might be on here.

🤣
