HitMeHard Posted August 24 Posted August 24 Well she doesnt graps the idea of being a celebrity i guess. I think comparing a fan wanting a picture , to a stalker is wrong tho, and if she (and she probably will still have) stalkers she should handle it distrectly and not on tiktok. 1

Her album became a sleeper hit 9 months after it was released. And she has already made a name for herself as a touring act, showcasing how organic her demand is. She is not someone who just scores pop hit after pop hit for one year and then evaporates because she doesn't have fans. Especially considering Good Luck Babe is the single for her next project.

simplywohoo Posted August 24 Posted August 24 (edited) I understand that that's what she wants her life to be but it's not happening. She's a huge public figure and WILL be followed and talked to. It's completely fair that she doesn't want to be touched or followed but I don't really get the ppl saying she only talks about crazy fans. She literally talks about people coming to to her and asking for a picture, calling it "nonconsensual social interaction" and comparing ppl talking to her to sexual harassment due to revealing clothes. This just comes with fame and she KNEW it. The posts won't do anything. She will still be stalked, which is horrible, and she will still be asked to take pictures. That being said, she's perfectly fine to decline all of that interaction and call the weirdos out. I just don't get her surprised Pikachu face that this is happening. And I also agree with the people saying this will probably hurt her, not commercially, but there are so many ******* weirdos out there that want to provoke celebs bc they have nothing else to do. I can see the same thing happening to her that happened to iggy. Edited August 24 by simplywohoo 3

Reginald Posted August 24 Posted August 24 Maybe she should follow the SiaPrint / FameGaPrint and obscure her face
Comedor Posted August 24 Posted August 24 Good luck achieving that level of privacy. It would be a first in the industry.
Katamari Posted August 24 Posted August 24 I always think of that one monster from Gaga's documentary who followed her around saying mother and hoping for some attention which she unfortunately got
Kristie Kuwa Posted August 24 Posted August 24 She should contact Billie. I think she went through a similar super hard time in the beginning with adjusting to the fame, but she seems great now
stjosephprey4us Posted August 24 Posted August 24 My thing is, trying to reason with deranged ppl is never going to work 1
40_L3VE Posted August 24 Posted August 24 I fear for her mental health. Not everyone is cut out for all that fame brings with it. 1
Jay07 Posted August 24 Posted August 24 Okay this is becoming a bit "okay we get it" now and her entire identity is revolving around not allowing fans to touch her or call her by her actual name? Like, maybe she's not cut out for this after all and she really is becoming annoying.

We're supposed to believe women aren't harassing her socially and physically???? 1 1
LewisK Posted August 24 Posted August 24 Again, understandable, and I don't get freak fans as well. But she's coming off as angry, entitled and ungrateful, I think there are tons of better ways to enunciate it or deal with it.
georgechxng Posted August 24 Posted August 24 queen tbh. i'm here for her setting her boundaries and controlling the narrative. this isn't offensive at all so anyone having a problem w this are weirdos
AvadaKedavra Posted August 24 Posted August 24 I dont think she's wealthy enough to pay for security 24/7. Is she?

It doesn't make her statements less true and I think given the recent example in the Taylor situation, literally anything that's happened to Bebe Rexha within the last two years, it doesn't matter. It would be scary and destabilizing being in a position like that just like it is being a person on the street with no security. - There shouldn't be discourse about this, but it's not surprising there is. Celebrity culture isn't a healthy transaction for either party, but no one else is going to say that because people that are neither the artist nor the fan are making money hand over fist from it as socially underdeveloped people are wasting their lives doing pro bono marketing and celebrities have to put on airs of giving a **** about people they don't know to keep their jobs. She comes off abrasively and holier-than-thou (kind of like Phoebe Bridgers did when she spoke to the same thing), it doesn't make her sentiments wrong at all. And I think it's probably easier to be pissed off than be crashing out and crying online begging for people's sympathy. It's probably better for everyone that she did it on her own volition the second it got weird rather than doing it as a deflecting mechanism for being called out for bigotry like Doja Cat did. Hopefully it detaches some people from partaking in it, but more realistically, people are going to write effusively about how on point she is and then turn around and engage in the same behavior to someone else they don't like and the people that are harassing her now will continue to harass her more. None of our individual lives change for better or for worse as a result. 1

An artist performing their music whether it be at a festival, inside a club, in an arena, at the VMAs, or in a Walmart parking lot DOES NOT warrant harassment or invasion of privacy. It is simply a part of their job. It is actually laughable that you think you make sense. Oh OK, so you DO NOT think before typing, thanks for clarifying it. Choosing fame is choosing to be a public person. Being a public person means having to adapt because you won't be entitled to private like everyone else. If you think that's warranted or not is completely meaningless and irrelevant because it's not about your opinion, it is about reality.

What Chappell said was not an opinion. It is a fact. People do not know how to respect people's boundaries and that should not be overstepped just because someone is famous for their work. There wasn't anything wrong with the part you bolded in my previous statement. Edited August 24 by AFullMoonlight
