Being a celebrity has its pros and cons. On one hand, you’re famous, rich, get a bunch of stuff for free, and have tons of people adoring you. On the other hand – your mistakes will be noticed immediately and people can turn on you pretty quickly. Here are some celebrities that were beloved and now people have lost all respect for them.
1. Leonardo DiCaprio
There’s no denying that he’s a talented actor, everyone really rooted for him to finally get that Oscar. But he constantly dates models that are half his age and that are barely even legal is majorly creepy.
2. Amber Heard
At first, people really believed Amber Heard. But after that super long process in court that everyone got to watch, many people lost respect for her. The things she said and did started sounding way too weird. And by the end of the whole thing, it was just embarrassing.
3. Jared Padalecki
Remember how his character Dean started out sweet in Gilmore Girls, but got really annoying and entitled and behaved like a really tall child toward the end? Or perhaps you know him best from Supernatural? He’s kind of the same there too. Well, basically it looks like that’s just how Jared is. He literally started a feud with his Supernatural co-star simply cause he felt like he wasn’t getting enough attention.
4. Ellen Degeneres
Ellen is the queen of daytime TV shows. She gets all the A-list celebs on her show. But her methods of conducting interviews have gotten pretty weird. She bullies and scares her guests, and remember that time she made Taylor Swift cry? She’s supposed to be a comedian, but really she’s a bully.
5. Gwyneth Paltrow
Gwyneth could’ve been absolutely fine if she just continued to act in movies, but once she decided to found Goop we knew it was over for her. You can’t take someone seriously when they literally try to sell you extremely overpriced and absolutely useless goop.
6. Jared Leto
Jared Leto is an actor, this singer, and frontman of 30 Seconds to Mars, a very fit and handsome-looking guy, but also a creep. He literally is building a cult around himself. You’ve heard about it, and you’ve seen pictures of him dressed in all white on an island surrounded by women that paid tons of money to come and see him cosplay Jesus.
7. Oprah
People loved Oprah for her show, of course, they did, she’s a successful black lady who managed to build an empire and give every audience member a car on occasion. But the fact that she was good friends with Harvey Weinstein and kept silent about all the horrible things he did and how he treated people, well, that lost her major points with the public.
8. Demi Lovato
We’re sure Demi had her share of hardship and mental health problems, but now she constantly plays the victim in every single situation. She literally accused a store that sold sugar-free, vegan, and gluten-free options of triggering her and pushing diet culture. That is a level of self-centeredness we haven’t witnessed before.
9. Drake
Drake’s music career has kind of stalled as he stopped really putting effort into it. It just sounds like the same stuff over and over. But what really made people lose respect for him is that while he constantly talks about his dad walking out on his family, he did exactly the same with his kid. But the worst cherry on top was him grooming Milly Bobby Brown from Stranger Things. A grown man should not hang out and talk about boys with a kid. That’s just creepy.
