In todays world, people can obtain any celebrity’s status without even trying hard. Similarly, there are a number of ways in which fame can be acquired by the celebrities. Getting fame is no longer about being extremely talented or being an excellent actor/singer. People can gather attention and attract people by just posting pictures or videos online. Those who choose to walk down on this path become stars but there are high chances for them to not be considered A-listers.
The title of A-list is conceived by an artist for being extraordinarily impressive at what they do. They are the best of the best and are adored by millions all around the globe.
Some celebrities try to stay out of radar because of the immense fame they get. They decide that they wouldn’t let fame get the better of themselves. However, its quite difficult to do so. But when we look at the bigger picture, there are some celebrities who easily get carried away with everything they receive. People are start talking about them and they feel famous and hence their egos get more solid. They are known as the C-listers.
So here’s a list of celebs who got a massive ego boost once they received a certain amount of fame.
Katherine Heigl
Katherine Heigl is the first entry on our list for a reason. She has an ego twice the size of a dinosaur and thinks that she is above everyone else. Katherine also holds a massive attitude and contemplates the fact that she is the best at every regard compared to anyone else. When you become an actor, you have to take every script and production work in account in order to not shut everyone out. Katherine completely does opposite of that. She blatantly disapproves of scripts and thrashes them publicly. On top of all, she once withdrew herself from an award show just because she thought its too low for her. Katherine Heigl is a great actress but maybe thats been told to her a bit too many times.
January Jones
January Jones is a decent actress who is also gorgeous as well. Her fans absolutely adore her and this has allowed her to gain a massive fan following. However, that’s entirely not what the film industry thinks about her. We’ll also take the liberty to point out that January Jones is hated by all those who she has worked with. She too possesses a giant ego. Jared Gilmore, her co-star from Mad Men once mentioned that she is always occupied in her own world and is unapproachable.
Paris Hilton
It might’ve come as a shock to you as to what is Paris Hilton doing in this list. But we assure you, she’s here for all the right reasons. Paris Hilton is widely famous for being famous and rich. To support the context, Paris even grew up with a massive ego. Accompanied by people who help her boost it, its gotten worse and worse over the years. She’s a natural at being egotistic but once she’s on camera, she channels her inner humble human being.
Lindsay Lohan
Lindsay Lohan has grown up facing many obstacles. Her life was filled with trials at each step. You might think that this is the exact point as to why she should stay humble. But no, Lindsay decided to remain the same. Her issues have been circulating for quite some while now. Plenty of her directors and co-stars have come forward with how belittling Lindsay’s attitude is. Some even entitle her as an obnoxious person. She perceived her identity as a massive A-lister alongside thinking that she was born to live above others. She has faced many problems due to her ego and it has definitely been the reason for her downfall.
Celebrity Leaks
As already mentioned above that seeking fame in todays world is not a challenging task at all. Similarly, many celebrities such as Bella Thorne, Madison Beer and Vanessa Hudgens have experienced their nude photos being published online. Whilst some starts published those themselves on social media, some spoke out and said they were published without their consent.
Madison Beer
In 2020, Madison Beer took social media to guide her message across the world. The message was regarding her “traumatic” nude photo scandal. Madison wrote that when she 14 years old, a boy released some “very private snapchats” that she sent him. The singer also stated how she was left in despair after experiencing such incidents. “When I was around 14 and exploring my body and sexuality, I sent very private Snapchats of my body to a boy I really liked at the time.” Madison wrote in a lengthy text on Twitter.
Bella Thorne
In June 2019, Bella Thorne herself published nude photos of her on Twitter after a man who hacked her account threatened to post them. “Yesterday, as you all know my s–t was hacked. For the last 24 hours, I have been threatened with my own nudes. I feel gross. I feel watched and I feel someone has taken something from me that I only wanted one special person to see,” Bella wrote alongside the pictures. “He has sent me multiple nude photos of other celebrities,”
She further continued, “He won’t stop with me or them he will just keep going. For too long I let a man take advantage of me over and over and I’m f–king sick of it. I’m putting this out because it’s MY DECISION NOW. YOU DON’T GET TO TAKE YET ANOTHER THING FROM ME. I can sleep tonight better knowing I took my power back. You can’t control my life. You never will.”
Alissa Violet
In October 2019, Alissa Violet posted a nude photo of herself on Instagram. The fans were quick to investigate and think that her ex-boyfriend FaZe Banks might have leaked them. However, the YouTuber then went onto explain that a hacker was threatening her to release them. “It literally has nothing to do with FaZe. A hacker was threatening to leak it so I just posted it. All my tags are thinking it’s FaZe threatening to leak them which is not true.” explained Alissa.
