Whether it's your uncle who can't keep his radical opinions to himself or your classmates who want to convince everyone that their lives are perfect, nowadays it seems that everyone's online.

The Instagram account 'Comments By Celebs,' however, is dedicated to solely what the stars are saying. From savage comebacks to haters and heartfelt exchanges with fans to supportive messages and inside jokes with fellow colleagues, this pop culture hub notices it all.

While famous people were once untouchable and distant, social media has brought them closer than ever.

However, we shouldn't take everything at face value. As Brett Cullen, head of social media at Hatch PR, explains, "Celebrities have finely crafted public images, and social media is an important part of making or breaking that. There's a strategy behind why celebrities do what they do (or don't), particularly on social."

"Keeping control of that image, and the narrative of the brand, is ... crucial for celebrities," he adds. When you have millions of followers, it makes sure that your posts, comments, and even likes are carefully curated. The cost of a mistake can be too high.

"Community college first" seriously I was NOT ready for a four year school straight out of high school but I let myself be pressured into it anyway (I was the valedictorian and was basically told community college was beneath me). Would have saved myself a lot of money and a lot of headache

Of course, that doesn't mean that every word is a lie. Personal brand builder Julie Bunkley emphasizes that forming your image is about "believing in yourself and your trajectory enough to put thought into how you can use every tool in your toolbox to place your brand where you want it to be."

She believes that professionals who are serious about their name should do so "actively, thoughtfully, constantly." In the case of celebrities, the words they share online are not necessarily false, but rather strategically filtered to shape the vision they want to project.

What kind of electrician comes to fix the TV in nothing but his underwear? 🤣 Just kidding, but this is pretty funny.

Stop the hate against Jewish people. I see many people harassing them on the social media just because they are Jewish, and as a French that really remind me of a darker time.

Still struggling to get over Emma’s comment “You look photoshopped”. When a guy is that attractive, tries to act like an a*sş but ends up being a keeper. I don’t exactly know how to react.

They broke up? Darn it, they made a darling couple. (yes, I know Betty White's been dead for almost 3 years now, let me have my delusion that she's still alive)

However, we're not coo-coo if we're interested in celebrities' comments either.

Dr. Paul Harrison from Deakin University’s Faculty of Business and Law, who is an expert in consumer behavior and culture, believes we monitor and follow celebrities so closely because as humans we are constantly searching to understand how to improve our lives.

"Everything is about seeking a better life and a desperate desire not to be ignored or forgotten, so we look to celebrities to help guide us on how to achieve something akin to their lives. We know that we’re not the same, but we also have to believe that what they have achieved is only just out of our reach."

"In other words," he says, "it's all about fitting in, perhaps being a bit better. We believe that if we follow those with success, some form of authority or a sense of power, we set ourselves on the right path." 

ADVERTISEMENT

"Whether it's Taylor Swift, Donald Trump, Barrack Obama, the Kardashians, or the cast of Married at First Sight, all of these people feed into how we think we should (and shouldn’t) behave to achieve something that verges on a 'good life,'" Dr. Harrison continues. "The problem is, we are only seeing a proportion of their lives."

So while these comments can be entertaining, we shouldn't feed ourselves too much into them.

Celebrity worship syndrome is a disorder that occurs when admiration for someone shifts into an obsessive fascination. While it's not a clinically recognized condition, it's been described as an obsessive-addictive disorder.

I love Josh Gad, he cracks me up 😂 If you've never seen Little Monsters (2019) with him and Lupita Nyong'o I really recommend it, they are both great in it

While excessive content consumption isn't a good thing, scrolling through a list like this, of course, shouldn't cause any harm.

The world is a complicated place, and sometimes, it's okay to find comfort in simplicity.

For real, stop judging people who get tattoos, it's none of your business what people do with their money and body.

I think Sara Foster meant that Jen is still gorgeous and hot and that her ex's might not be able to handle it and possibly drop dead when they see that pic. (At least that's how I interpret it.)

No matter the intended sentiment, hearing "happiness is a choice" when one is severely depressed makes one feel worse.

I remember a time in my youth when my boyfriend wanted me to wear thong underwear. Never really got used to the feeling of a bit of fabric being wedged between my heineclappers - always wanted to pick it out. All I can think of when I see that style of bathing suit XD

Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't being yourself everyone's full time job? EDIT: except actors I guess.

Discuss that she has bare legs with a coat and boots? Sure, it looks stupid, but seems sort of mean to call her out on it

Southpark was right many many years ago. 21st century, still sacrificing virgins. (Always think if that episode when I see Britney...what a tragedy). No justice: JT (a*****e since day one) is thriving. Britney (reportedly really sweet) seems to barely hang on.

even the kardashians adapt to the maga regime - stay tuned, other tattooed skinheads to follow, mother will blame the global south and the gender changing father will make organic gardening and hunt for food.
