celeb news Shawn Mendes joins Cult

[Cloudy]

Can he join OnlyFans next?

[glitch]

Shawn has always seemed as though he doesn't have much going on upstairs so not surprised he'd get sucked into something like this.

[Outlaws]

I need a Netflix doc

How do people get sucked up into these cults? Is it naïvety? Stupidity? Desperation? A mixture of it all?

[Frozen99]

i recall he said he read 70 self-help books...  he's definitely one who craves a connection or, like someone else said, a sense of community, which these types of sects and cults provide... i hope it's not true and he's getting the PROFESSIONAL help he needs.

It's inner wounds and low self-esteem... It's indicative of someone in a highly vulnerable state and unfortunately coming into contact with a charismatic individual who makes them believe in something greater beyond themselves.

does anyone really care about what "cults" rich people join out of boredom ?

Well yes, because celebrities give these cults a sense of legitimacy that can lead everyday people into the trap and cause a lot of harm.

if a grown adult is dumb enough to join a cult bc some rando said he’s a demigod or the offspring of an alien race then that’s really just natural selection atp 

[TheCal]

This doesn't really surprise me if it's really true. Very sad :/

Instead of shaming him why don’t we try to find the reasons all these young stars turn to these cults….

 

Free Shawn, Free Miley, Free Justin, Free Selena

Hollywood controls them (and their millions) through religion. I expected better for Miley since she's a big ass nepo baby, they usually don't get manipulated.  

[Feanor]

Of course…

[jakeisphat]

One minute he’s getting self-help exercises, the next he’ll be drinking the leader’s “sacred milk” to replenish his spiritual connection. NXIVM teas. Allison Mack better warn his ass… cuz I’m gonna hurt his feelings.

i’m fascinated by cults and the types of people that end up intertwined in that life

[AvadaKedavra]

They joined a cult cause they were probably advised by hollywood friends or wanna belong to something  Im worried about him cause he shows clearly signs of not being happy with his life and trying to use all these techniques and naturalistic ways to find peace.  I wonder if he has some artistry insecurities, lack of direction in life or unsolved personal issues

He changed so much after that Camila Breakup. I wonder what happened. Sometimes i feel like that Relationship was destructive for both
Instead of working it damaged the career of both  the extraness got too much.


Miley. I feel like Miley is always jumping from thing to thing to thing  i dont see her lasting here.

She's such a transient person. She's havin a downtime cause she's in her endless summer vacation after working for decades with no rest. Still, pretty worrisome. Stay away from them Miley.

Can he join the suck my diçk  cult next 

[Mamamo]

Why does LA have so many cults? It's getting weird.. 

[DAP]

Whenever a rich person joins a cult or becomes some “lifestyle guru” it always reminds me of the Mad Men scene of Don Draper meditating to a Coke ad.

Why do so many celebs go into cults

People being superficial and fake and not forming genuine connections combined with having a lot of money makes celebrities prime targets for grifters.
