I remember when Vanessa Hudgens' nudes were leaked and Disney made her apologize for them. 2000s purity culture was something to behold.

[screamingintune]

wasn't she underaged in those? :(

[ionadelfina]

I don't know how old she was when they were taken but she was 18 when they leaked. So, barely legal.

[just444]

she was

i even remember that they got posted here until someone mentioned that and everyone freaked

[dejatrue]

Every year Will Smith could get a Slapsgiving Day and probably still finish life off with an undeserved amount of outrage from that first one leftover

[screamingintune]

if the rumors about Taylor Swift collaborating with Olivia Rodrigo on her upcoming album are true, then I feel like ONTD has made me believe in a feud between the two that never actually existed lol

[gumby]

I saw a tweet saying that Taylor and Jack co-wrote a song for her, but that was from a troll.

[rubie_dubidoux]

That collab news is def fake but that feud is like 90% rooted in pure conjecture and it’s weird to see people be way more invested in it than I bet either party is

[gumby]

I agree with all of these.

idk if this was 'outrage' but I feel like people were really ott about Tom Hiddleston when his biggest blunder was just being cringe/tonedeaf. in hindsight it taught him to lead a more low-key (pls laugh) lifestyle which is probably more beneficial for his overall mental health. just sucks that his career took a little dive when serial offenders see little to no impact concerning their reputation/ability to thrive in hollywood

Similar thing with Anne Hathaway tbh. Their biggest crime is being a little too overeager, giving those theatre kid vibes, which sure are annoying but when there are so many worse people out there it's like... ok.

[euraylie]

Yeah, all in all I think Tom Hiddleston is a good guy with some flaws.
There shouldn’t have any outrage as such, only pointing and laughing, and face-palming at the cringeness

I feel like the same could be said about Benedict Cumberbatch. he's said some slightly dumb stuff and he is uglier than women are allowed to be while still be considered heartthrobs, but I feel like most of his annoyingness back in the day was because his fans were really, really intense. he doesn't seem like an awful person.

and Hiddlestans are similar
