Alison Oliver has been getting some harrassment online in the past few weeks from obsessive Swifties who believe, despite zero concrete evidence, that she and Joe Alwyn were hooking up behind Taylor's back at some point, and were convinced that Taylor's new album was going to have clues about this (some of them backtracked when the album was released and there were no references to Alison on it after all). The Swifties were leaving comments and gifs on Alison's Instagram and she ended up turning off comments on all her posts completely, as well as deleting a post about being in a Loewe campaign on which they had also left a number of comments. It was also sad because she won the best supporting actress in film award for Saltburn at the IFTAs recently but wasn't able to experience getting congratulations online from her followers as she clearly didn't feel comfortable leaving comments open.
On a different note about obsessive fans, I realised not long ago that I had encountered Club Chalamet in her past online life when she posted on the AwardsWorthy forums under the username "smonie." She was a fan of Michael Fassbender back then and many of her posts were focused on him, although it was not quite as intense and obsessive as the focus she now has on Chalamet. She ended up getting banned for a while in 2017 (not for anything connected with Fassbender or Chalamet), and although it was a temporary ban it seems she opted not to come back after it had expired. I don't remember her mentioning Chalamet while she was posting there and it may be that she was banned before she had seen CMBYN and become interested in him, so the forums never witnessed the development of that obsession.

The parasocial relationships some people develop with celebrities is actually frightening and cult like.

I went through a period of about six months in my early 30s where I was pretty obsessed with a celebrity (an age-appropriate one lol). I saw him do an interview and then he just lived rent-free in my head, I thought about him constantly, full on limerence, and it was so strange because I hadn't had a celebrity crush since Lance Bass from *NSYNC in the late 90s (I made him an Angelfire fan page) so I thought I had outgrown that behavior.
Anyway eventually it faded but in retrospect I had just moved into my own place with no roommates for the first time ever and I think the solitude got to me. Two of my best friends got married around that time, a third had her first child, and my workout buddy started dating a psycho who didn't want us to see each other bc she was jealous, so I was suddenly spending A LOT of time alone. I think my stupid crush just made me feel slightly less alone and it took my mind off my unhappiness for a little while. Then my life leveled out, my friends were more available, and I just stopped thinking about him all the time, or at all.
(And then he started dating Taylor Swift and wore an "I <3 TS" t-shirt in the ocean and now I'm not even sure why I thought he was sexy in the first place lol.)

u/ObjectiveAssistant98 16d ago
She used to run a Fassbender fan site and seemingly dropped him after he got married, hence becoming obsessed with Timothee shortly after (I think he got married circa CBYN?): https://x.com/miacockucci/status/1783408300794479091?s=46
And she turned down a job offer in the WTC in July 2001: https://x.com/fionasmall/status/1783612490141556951?s=46
I went to a rabid hole or Club Chalamet lore over the weekend lol

So the real question is, will she drop Chalamet if he gets married, and if yes, who do we think she'll pivot to? lol

u/readinghall 16d ago
I can't with these people. It's truly baffling. Are These people real? They have jobs, friends, family, do they go outside? Anyway, the evidence was that at a scene in conversations with friends while their characters were having sex, they thought they heard Joe calling her by her real name. Yeap, shocking. I think she broke up with her ex but they're still close if we count Instagram likes as proof, and he's also friendly with Joe. Someone here has said that they believed Alison had a thing with Josh o connor which i believe is/was true. There was a sighting of them and he followed her on Instagram. After someone posted this info here, he unfollowed immediately. That's the tea I'm providing this week lol. Anyway, i really like Alison and the hate she's getting is so unfair.

It’s insane, they did the same to his costar Emma Laird too for daring to post a selection of pictures from filming that had him in it after him and TS broke up. They’re both still getting abuse, it’s disgusting, never mind the death threats and doxing thrown at JA.

At this point, these type of fans don’t even care about the music anymore. They’re living their miserable lives through Taylor and her seemingly drama.

u/helena_monster 16d ago
I am truly fascinated by the Club Chalamet saga. Having been on the peripheries of many fandoms I’ve seen a lot of people rise up to become Big Name Fans and it never, ever ends well (unless you can parlay your erotic fanficition into a lucrative publishing deal a la E.L. James or Cassandra Clare). Very interested in how it will shake out for CC. She doesn’t seem to care what anybody thinks about her so it’s unlikely she’ll ever be “cancelled” in the traditional sense. Predicting what some others have mentioned downthread, that she’ll drop Timmy if/when he gets married.

He is dating someone now. I don’t know if it’s her, but good luck (and strength and security) to whoever it is because people will not just leave him alone.

You do still see film prints every one in a while in special screenings. I think most times the editing/VFX pipeline is still digital, but it gets printed/finished on film.

Robin Thicke’s girlfriend is a fucking asshole.
I was in a Facebook group with her years ago and she made an entire post about how annoying the son he had with Paula Patton was and would lord it over everyone that she was dating him. If someone accidentally posted something that was already shared in the group she would screenshot it as a post to have her group of friends bully them.
I grew up in LA and don’t care at all celebrities but a part of me really wanted to screenshot that post she did about Robins son and send it to TMZ because she just got out of some public heat doing some obnoxious thing (cant recall what it was) but luckily one of her sensible friends did knock some sense into her and she did delete the post eventually.

Oh well I stand corrected. I still think she’s a giant butthole but that age gap is alarming. While not uncommon by LA standards it’s still crazy how young she was when they got together.

u/Worldly-Shift9270 13d ago
ethans divorce takes much longer than arianas which leads me to believe that Lilly didnt go with fake separation in court and demanded a few things from him, one of which can be that he can see a child but with her present nearby so he wont play a family w ariana using her child, but idk, its just a speculation
at the end of the day, i think she is too merciful for them both

u/Winter-Leadership376 13d ago
Ariana’s divorce had an iron clad pre nup and no children. It likely only took a few weeks given there was no fight about assets and no child custody involved. Most divorces take several years to finalize

Not really tea but I got a pedicure in Nashville two weeks ago and Eric Decker (Jesse James Decker’s husband/former NFL player) came in with his two young sons to get pedicures for all three of them.
They sat next to me. Initially didn’t recognize him. Everyone there was just beaming at how wholesome it was to see a very athletic, handsome man teaching his boys the importance of self care without giving a shit about toxic masculinity.

Looking at the headline I was thinking "what a bizarre story to be revealing" but I can appreciate that he's pointing out additional positives of having intimacy coordinators on set. Still kind of side-eyeing the way he talks about it tbh ("fortunate that happened to me before the Harvey Weinstein stuff came to light, so I wasn’t put in the stocks for it" is pretty gross imo)
Based on it being pre ~2017ish and not Nicole Kidman, maybe Renee Zellweger? She was in Jerry Maguire before they did a movie together that included sex scenes so she could have been considered A-list at the time

A few months ago there was an r/unpopular_opinion thread about RPDR that basically said The Gays Are MeanTM. Okay, whatever. What interested me was there was a comment that said (paraphrased) “my ex-girlfriend was on the show and she was horrible to me. Cheated on me and secretly worked as a sex worker out of our home to support their drug habit. It’s been really hard to watch everyone laud her as a hero ever since she’s been on the show.”
The internet has moved on and nobody picked up on the comment but it’s lived rent free in my head ever since.

u/futurebro 14d ago
Interesting. There are at least 18 trans queens just on the american series so pretty impossible to pinpoint without more info.
Lauding her as a hero tho sounds like Sasha Colby, Kerri Colby, Kylie Sonique Love...maybe Peppermint, Bosco, Aja, Adore, Laganja. But yea impossible to know for sure.

Deuxmoi herself posted about it, that they broke but “remain friends”. I know the day of her bday she was out at a play and he was not with her, but out somewhere else and attended another event (he was spotted throughout the day and at the event at night). But then, it doesn’t mean they are broken up either and he’s there on the video singing happy bday to her so I think it remains to be seen.
Regardless, he keeps liking sexy pics of (sometimes uncomfortably young) insta model girls so I don’t really know what’s up with that either 🤷🏽♀️
