I understand why some of her fans are so invested, she represents a lot for some of them. However, I feel sorry for her now and even more in the future if she ever chooses to do something that’s outside of her current image, like dating a guy, for example.

dating a guy? i was under the impression she identified as lesbian, but perhaps i'm wrong

[marsdiamonds]

I think she does now.

[villanellesalt]

She's a lesbian... why would she date a guy? She has dated men before and said she has come to the conclusion she has no attraction nor interest towards them. This idea that sexuality is fluid and a lesbian may date a man in the future is very lesbophobic.

This is why I’ve always said I’d like the money, but not the attention that celebs have. Noooo fucking thanks.

[xtinkerbellax]

Yea fame in and of itself really has no upsides, I'd never want to be publicly known.

[delfintaka]

What about getting tables at exclusive restaurants? Or getting that Birkin (lol) without jumping through all those ridiculous hoops?

Fame has upsides!

[pa0r_ple]

The upsides of fame are not good enough to tolerate the negative stuff that comes with it, at least for me. I barely like people knowing I exist now lol

[koalat]

that's fair, she became famous so fast too. must be super jarring.

This is how I react to any kind of attention, positive or negative. Once there’s too much of it, I back away and kind of hide out. It just triggers too much sensation and I get insanely overwhelmed and anxious. Doing well on tik tok for craft stuff? Better stop now because the notifications are already too much for me to want to open the app and I’m not popular AT ALL.

same... people at work are filling the chat wishing me a happy birthday? better die now

[big_ang]

lmaooo hbd!!

[kimda]

LMAOOOO (happy birthday!!! 🤣❤️)

Parasocial obsessions are one of the scariest and most negative aspects of internet culture in general.
