I have 2 "celebs" that I can't get enough of when I'm bored.

Both whom I used to admire but their behaviour and outlandish exploits can't make me tear my eyes away from their next catastrophes.

  1. Megan Markle. Thought she was amazing breath of fresh air when she joined the RF. Guessed an amazing future for her. Admired her Feminst past (fairy liquid anyone) but just watch open mouthed as I read about her fake marriage, taking the piss out of curtsey to the queen and the way she treats Hazzza. Etc

From twerking and the woe is me media junkets I just can't get enough. I don't know anyone like her in real life and wonder why she thinks she knows better than anyone else. From her pregnant twerking to her stealing of dresses. I continue to be gobsmacked. The weird thing is, I'm not a royalist in any shape or form. Get rid of the motor then, I say!!

Don't give a shit what the rest of the them get up to. Except AMW. Although think he'll disappear into obscurity. I'd love to be a fly on the wall in one of her counselling sessions. What the fuck goes through her mind??

  1. Katie Price , I was originally completely indifferent to her until IACGMOOFH, and saw a side of her of her that made me soften to her. But my god, the way she treats her animals, her kids and the endless fame and men chasing makes me want to know what goes through her head. The way she treats her poor eldest. No trust find squirrelled away for his future despite the millions she was taking in at one point. And siding him for views on social Media. Vile!

Blaming the government for not letting him stay at the Star centre. No love, they can only stay there 3 years and his time was up, what didn't you make sure he was financially protected? She again is a walking car crash and devour any media posts about her. Again not all the time, only when I'm bored.

Who are yours and why?

Hmm

the Kardashian’s when there’s big irl drama. They’re kinda boring now, although I reckon kourtney is headed for divorce. Would love for her to be happy tbh

cardi b, although kind of bored of her shtick now, she has a drama every time she needs to sell an album, it’s old

the beckhams drama is quite good

edit, I love meghan markle though!

CheeseWisely · 02/01/2026 23:41

I kind of love the Kardashians. I saw a clip of an interview with Kim where she talked about how they kept thinking they had no more drama to make watchable TV ‘and then my Stepdad became a Woman and that was 2 more seasons’. I admire the unashamed grifting of it all. Fair play to them, their grandchildren will still be living off the proceeds.

Katie price!

Fourfurrymonsters · 03/01/2026 00:19

I agree with Katie Price. I look her up every couple of months and smugly marvel at how much worse she looks every time (I know, I’m a cowbag, bite me). I’m 10 years older than her and she increasingly looks like my nan who’s long dead. I just think “wtf has she done to her arse now?!” And the lips, the hairline, the eyebrows, the huge squint/square tits, the cocktail stick legs… god almighty 🤦‍♀️
I feel better about saying all this because I know of her through a couple of different sources and apparently she’s a truly vile individual. Just for her treatment of animals alone she deserves everything she gets. To say nothing of the way she’s treated her kids and the monumental lies that spout forth from that comedy gob of hers. Her family are equally disgusting as well.

Hufflemuff · 03/01/2026 06:15

Kanye West. I signed up to X just to watch him tell the world he sucked off his cousin, supports P Diddy, hates the Jews, thinks Kris Jenner is Satan and let's not forget his naked/totally abused wife.

Following him every day about 6 months ago, it was something wilder and wilder every time. The level of self destruction was incredible.

Absolutely bat shit crazy, but with views that are so disgusting he deserves everything he gets.

JamesClyman · 03/01/2026 12:00

Not celebs, but I do like YouTube vids about mature Yanks and Aussies who marry a 20-something in the Far East and discover they are bankrolling her entire family.

I guess I am just nasty.

FastFood · 03/01/2026 12:04

Whatever influencer who endorses crypto, dodgy investments and Dubai.

Whosthetabbynow · 03/01/2026 12:08

I always thought Katie Price was lovely with Harvey when I’ve seen them together in documentaries. All her kids seem nice

13RidgmontRoad · 03/01/2026 12:23

Another one for Meghan Markle. I’m pretty indifferent to royals, celebs, but I feel so strongly that she is making a huge mess out of what was actually a good opportunity and increasingly comes across as unhinged, arrogant, petulant and stuck with Frozen Todger Boy. Can’t tear myself away.

50 cent 🤣 his level of pettiness is admirable. His insta has has me cackling at the pdiddy stuff. And the fact he bought the first four rows of a ja rule concert because they hate each other is genius 😂

ChimpanzeeThatMonkeyNews · 03/01/2026 15:29

I had no idea 50 Cent was so deliciously petty!

TheRuffleandthePearl · 03/01/2026 16:28

I’m not a celebrity follower at all but the Peaty Ramsay hen do/wedding drama had me hooked for a few weeks. Trying to decide if his family are hard done by or just completely unhinged! I’m sure it’s not done yet!

I'm a 50 Cent fan girl, he is so unashamedly himself 😂😂😂 and always has been, incredibly loyal but jesus, you don't want to get on the wrong side of that man!

ChimpanzeeThatMonkeyNews · 03/01/2026 16:46

He sounds like just my sort of friend.

IceyBisBack · 03/01/2026 17:26

Oooohhhhh I'm On the Me3han & Hairy path too....
Katie Price meh.... dont tell me she's a good mum.
I'm a mum of a severely disabled child and have many friends in the same boat. It's is because of her parenting that Harvey is the size he us, speaks with such foul language and behaves with raised voices & violence!

TheFireHorse · 03/01/2026 19:56

Ooooo I'm glad I'm not the only one"cowbag"!!!

The Ramsey wedding is quite interesting to get lost in too. Can't decide who's at fault.

I too occasionally watch the catfish YouTube's. But then get annoyed because some of them just don't learn!!!

Frank that 20 year old gorgeous girl doesn't really adore you. You're a retired grossly overweight, toothless bus driver from Bromley for the love of god!! It's their poor adult children I feel sorry for, watching their dad or mum fall for all the lies despite all the evidence they give them.

Must be infuriating!!

I think it’s really sad to see what has happened to Katie Price, and I say that as someone who doesn’t even like her.

Yep- me too. I went to the same school as her and she was horrible even then.

I am a couple of years older than her and often look her up when I need a boost just to feel smug at how God awful she looks and that I look better than her despite the fact she had millions at one point and has access to all that cosmetic surgery

You are unbelievably ignorant. Harvey has a genetic condition which is the root of his weight issues. I’m no KP fan but even I know this.

Gowlett · 03/01/2026 20:09

The Ramsay wedding, it’s got everything!
Brooklyn Beckham is getting a bit boring…

Went through a phase of Kelly Brook / Jess Towie.
Tara Reid meltdown was kinda fascinating…

Meghan Markle. Watched her holiday special.
So bad, it’s good. Only lasted 2 episodes of her series.

I was quite invested in Bennifer's second wedding and subsequent divorce. I think they're hanging out again now.

Yes I was pretty indifferent to him but I actually love how brazenly petty he is. I’m fairly petty but he is amazing!

Bennifer was good the first time, even better the second.
Then the divorce. Add in the Jennifer Garner factor. Yup!

Wonder who he’ll shack up with next, to top all of this?!

Codyrhodesisaheel · 03/01/2026 20:17

50cents pettiness is phenomenal. Or fofty as I call him after his massive Barney with Lala from VPR and her insane ex,

the Adam peaty drama has me gripped right now. His family sound terrible, and I don’t think we’ve heard the last of it yet.

I also have a soft spot for Kerry katona. She’s had such an awful, abusive life but when you listen to her interviewed, she’s so sweet and funny and self deprecating,
