Actors who read online comments

I’m hoping that hung twink Graham Phillips reads his online comments.

All?

What r2 said.

Would you be able to resist looking at what people were saying about you? They all look at comments about themselves.

Miles and Connor definitely monitor what's being said about them.

That would be extremely masochistic

.C!oonie's PR people definitely monitor comments and sites and have some kind of google alert system.

Another forum I frequent has taken to speaking in code when discussing his alleged wrongdoing in the boot shaped country.

Tom Hiddleston, apparently.

Also Nikolai Coster Waldau has admitted to it (specifically on tumblr)

Colton...big time...

R6 Now I'm a little scared. This actor/coffee spokesperson is a scary person. How do you know his team monitors what is said about him? Do you think they're able to get a list of names of supposedly anonymous posters? At the same time, I'm glad they're talking about him in the boot-shaped country. There needs to have at least been a real investigation, and I don't think there was.

I have a feeling the Jackmans read everything that's written about them.

Henry Cavill has openly admitted he likes reading comments about himself. He definitely has been here.

Chris Evans. His mum tried to sue lipstick alley after herpes claims were made.

Well duh. Most celebs, and/or their agents, check what's being said on the internet about them, because any celeb's bread and butter is the public's opinion about them and (idle) gossip is part of that. What PR stunt worked or backfired. What do people buy and what not. What do people say about celeb's / the client's latest project, etc.

The rich and successful ones hire a buffer who reads the comments and only tell his or her boss which ones he or she likes to hear (which can only include praises or constructive criticism or what is said about celeb's latest PR stunt or project).

"I know Jennifer Lawrence and Charlize Theron report EVERY single negative comment on Daily Mail to their PRs."

How do you know this? Did their people tell you?

Charlize would be too busy trying to transit a child and JLaw is always have cum sprayed over the body and face.

I think a lot of them do even though they say they don't. Most actors are deeply insecure. They wouldn't be calling the paps, if they didn't care.

They call the paps to create hype and demand for themselves which can lead to new projects (hey look, the press follows me! I'm in demand! Hire me and your project will get some extra free press and promotion!).

I don't think we have anything to worry about as individuals. The concern is not getting the thread or worse the forum shut down.

Posters on another forum I visit were issued a "warning" to cool it with the accusations from whoever runs that forum, it was before my time there but my understanding is someone contacted the owners not individual posters and the warning was posted for all to heed. I caught on quickly to use nicknames, misspell and always state ALLEGEDLY and IN MY OPINION... I've tried to introduce these tactics here on DL but it hasn't really caught on. The subject shouldn't be allowed to die, just like comedians didn't let the .Cosbee story die.

In my opinion, he perhaps exhibits the characteristics of a sociopath, charming sociopath.

The thing is that when you use allegedly or in my opinion you get the shills and fantards screaming "nobody cares about your opinions or your unfounded gossip! Provide irrefutable proof (we will rip to shreds anyway and question your motives for sharing) or shut up!". There is a deliberate push to kill any unwanted discussion that could potentially hurt the celeb's mainstream appeal any way it's phrased.

I think most actors are more like Eddie Murphy md have PR people yes men read the comments and tell them only what they want to hear. That’s why most have such a warped sense of reality and zero self awareness.

But I’m sure someone like Kathy Griffin goes rogue and yes a few others. But I definitely think it’s a minority.

I don't care about fantards or shills and won't respond to their demands for substantiation, they are not officers of any court.

Don't use correct name so the pr and shills can't get google alerted.

If the discussion gets killed by someone paid to do so that's fine, at least there is a mention for posterity.

Well I love BOTH Jennifer and Charlize - so beautiful and talented

Why would they report every single comment on the daily mail? Wouldn’t they be checking some publication that matters?

As someone that gets spoken about on the internet quite a lot (I'm not on the level of anyone here anyone talks about though):

You learn not to read what people are saying about you but occasionally you slip. (You're also told not to read things. If something happens involving me it will usually get to me through someone else.) My friends are in the same boat and occasionally they pass along "good" things that people have said about me or something that's really funny that I might want to see.

I've found that the people I want to hear from that have nice things to say eventually find a way to communicate that with me usually through someone who I trust who will get that to me.

Also I've learned to insulate myself. I only see comments on Twitter and read comments from people I follow. I mostly stick to instagram. I turned off my google alerts (And yes Datalounge is on Google Alerts) and if I want to see something I've said in an interview, I'll seek that out later on or usually I follow the interviewer so I know when it's posted.

My little trick is that when I "slip" I'll say to myself, "I'm going to read about 10 comments and then stop." Then I do that and I'm done. If I run into people who hate me I just remind myself I'm doing the job and the person saying nasty things is at home watching so that's that.

R24 = cunt.

Have we discussed you here, R24? Did you resist replying?

R6 and R9 people have talked about the ER actor in here from Rome to time but what is the gossip about regarding him in the boot-shaped country?

R25, too funny!

R26, no and I'm happy about that! There was a thread on one of my friends and people were speculating about him (he's openly gay so it was about his dating life) and making fun of him. I only commented in that thread to say "he is a really nice guy" but I also know there's no arguing with anyone. Once people have their minds made up about something, it's hard to change that. It's also not the spirit of this place.

Sparkle$ and Harry definitely.

They have employed MASSIVE PR bots and shrills to counteract negative press.

But they are so inept, themselves.

No capable PR can counteract their abominable behaviors.

Thanks, R28. I am sure you're lovely in person too.

I would not put it past Meghan to fan the flames to look even more of a victim thanks to all the social media hate. Her brand is really being the bullied Princess on the run. I can't see her lasting long in LA when her acting career doesn't take off in a serious way.

[quote] I don't care about fantards or shills and won't respond to their demands for substantiation, they are not officers of any court.

You don't, but others who apparently want to share get scared off by them, because they ruin it for them with their "Lies, it's all lies!" trolling.

R27 This is of course a blind gossip item. Lots of people dismiss blind gossip out of hand. No reputable source has spoken a word about the incident, but that in itself seems suspicious to me. The person in question is a billionaire and billionaires can make upsetting incidents go away. Make of it what you will.

Tina Fey won a Golden Globe one year and then rattled off a bunch of mean comments people on Gold Derby said about her. I remember because I was on the site back then (before Tom O'Neil ruined it), although she didn't cite me.

It sickens me to even look at Mr. Smarmy especially when he is on his soapbox about some cause or mugging for the camera with the attention seeking beard.

The sudden circus wedding from formerly Mr. Private sure did SCREAM deflection.

I guess he is stuck with the beard for life since she knows everything. What a fine pair they are.

I stopped commenting on the appearance of a soap actress after I listened to an interview with her and she said she had to remove all social media from her phone because of the comments upsetting her so much. She sounded lovely in the interview and I regretted it.

"This is of course a blind gossip item. Lots of people dismiss blind gossip out of hand."

These days, blind items are being used to launch long-lasting smear campaigns, some of which are politically motivated.

One of the most well-known and least reliable blind item sites has a lot of repeat items smearing an actor who is both discussed on this thread and who had blue-colored political ambitions at one point, repeating variations on the same unsubstantiated story. They are also conducting a smear campaign against a very well known director and movie studio owner, who is also known for his blue-leaning political opinions and influence. Funny about that.

R37 Point taken. But a person can vote blue or have blue-leaning political ties and still be evil. Epstein donated heavily to the Democratic Party unfortunately. So I can't just dismiss this gossip as politically motivated. And it is odd to me that nothing ever came of the story, considering that there appears to be an actual victim and potential witnesses. It reeks of a cover up by a person with the power and money to do so.

How can someone be "smeared" by a story that has been hushed and quashed and never reached mainstream media due to influence...

The Kardashian style wedding palooza is what got people speculating and questioning not this little known blind.

The cast of The Office, particularly Jenna Fisher and Rashida Jones, used to mention on the DVD commentaries that they would visit IMDB's message boards a lot.

I read an interview with Kyra Sedgwick where she said Kevin Bacon has a Google Alert on himself. So, everybody say hello to Kevin!

I used to and look where it got me.

R38, I basically dismiss everything coming from the blind item site in question. I've caught the owner printing his own sexual fantasies and blatant publicist's plants, plus smear campaigns that are either politically motivated or which come from the online fandom lunatic fringe. You know how a great man fangirls and Dataloungers hate the wives and girlfriends of hot male celebrities? He actually publishes the shit they crazy fans make up about them in the form of blind items.

I ignored that site for a long time, now I'm keeping an eye on it, just so I know which rumors come from a compoletely unreliable source.

R24 this just firms my resolve to forever remain an utterly insignificant nobody

Fuck being famous. Money I'd like, but fame, thats a hard no from me. May I forever be one of the great unwashed, one of the little people

Kayleigh McInany is moonlighting.

Goop is probably also one of those people who has a yes person only reading positive comments. Anyone who doesn’t think she’s gorgeous with a perfect body is just “jealous”. She has said as much in interviews.

R24 Sure, Janet

Wilford Brimley is a well known troll on this site.

Wonder if Lea Michele reads her comments...

R48 I'm sure right now she's busy keeping track of the Naya situation.

Will and Jayda must read their comments, why else the current publicity stunt about cheating if not to reignite attention. Poor Mar go Robby getting dragged back into it. I'm sure she welcomed the publicity regardless of the truth way back when she was not well known but she has her career now and I believe is married.

Thom Bierdz

Just came across some gossip that young actress Jodie Comer quit social media because the crazy fans of her show Killing Eve were posting hateful and vulgar stuff on twitter. They found out where her boyfriend lives, they posted her address, posted candid pics of her and her boyfriend. Some individual or individuals are very obsessed.

She made a statement that she can't help looking for negative comments on social but the recent tidal wave of hate and privacy invasion has her swearing, never again.

Of course they do. Don't you notice that there's always more pictures of them in Daily Mail, Just Jared, etc. When they've got some project coming out or their career is flagging. Their online just as much as the rest of us.

Chrissy Teigen, she is quick with a comeback though so i doubt she has to hire anyone to sift through the comments for her, she is a hands on handler of her own commentary.

R52 why were they being hateful?? What did Jodie do??

The Jackmans definitely have their PR team remove negative comments from Daily Mail. I posted several comments questioning their marriage and all were promptly removed.

^^^ Someone said they had a comment removed from DM that included the phrase "facial hair" and they were in fact referring to the person's facial hair and were trying to avoid using the word "beard" for fear of censorship and got censored anyway, lol.

Ellen either hasn't been reading her comments all along or read them and didn't care. Her strategy whatever it was doesn't appear to have worked well for her.

Stevie Wonder

[quote] It's also not the spirit of this place.

You got that right.

R61 Truth. We all know you aren't really blind, Stevie.

As mentioned multiple times, Meghan Markle definitely reads what people say about her, probably even on here too. That was confirmed in that new biography. We also know that Shawn Mendes does too, hence the infamous "I'm not gay" video.

Linda Lavin is viewing the thread below right this minute.

A lot of these celebs have unstable stans who monitor the comments.

They monitor for the unstable fans or the unstable fans monitor out of unstable devotion? I know the Markle fans roll through fairly frequently, throwing around Klan Granny and all their bullshit.

I'm pretty sure Perez Hilton spams his content here and defends himself. I'm pretty sure Michael Lucas defends himself ferociaously on DL.

Somebody who admitted to being on Ryan Murphy's AHS productions posts here and gets VERY defensive when Murphy shitshows are questioned.

Who is this about?

His PR Drone has arrived at r67.

I won't take the bait, I doubt anyone else will either.

I don't know why this PR Intern is focused on DL, DL is benign compared to what's on other forums regarding this subject.

R68 it was sarcasm. We all know who it's about. Do they really say "ciao" in the trailer park?

What a shitty job PR must be, defending the dregs of the earth.

They are the worst. r70. PR people are the slimiest of the slimy, the dumbest of the dumb, the shallowest of the shallow.

And they know it, too.

Datalounge is pretty conservative when it comes to gossip. Travolta is gay is about as cutting edge as it gets. Most threads discuss lavender marriages as if they are real. Paul neuman and Joanne Woodward as the great love story.

I'm guessing Jen Garner reads her comments since many believe she calls the paps her self for her various activities.

R73 She came up a couple of weeks ago. Or to say, didn't come up.

R73 Jennifer garner is perky but has worst horse face in history. Has she dated a non actor? Because actors are gay. Her relationship with Ben is a bit too cordial not to be a mutual bearding situation.

Not naming because regardless of whether it is him, his flunkies or his unbelievably tiresome fan fraus, I don't want to deal with them again...

A certain three named actor from those movie about summer days and and dream heists at the very least has people who come in here and argues if anyone tries to dish about his behavior and bisexuality. The posts all sound suspiciously similar in wording and syntax which makes me think a singular is behind them.

R76 That person always throws around nicknames for that individual like we're gonna know who the fuck that is.

$ci in tol gists read their online comments. Which is odd since the members are not supposed to google or research the teachings just do as they are told, that is what Leah said anyway.

Madonna reading twitter--"these negative comments must be because it's opposite day". And she takes it from there.

The Ripa-Consuelos Clan must be reading their comments as they seem to be on a mission to make their children happen.

How exhausting that must be. To comb through the internet and look for negative shit people say about you. If I was worth $500 million I wouldn’t give two fucks what y’all say about me.

(R81) they have nothing to do like the rest of us. And their egos won't keep them from reading about themselves.

they'd hire someone to do the combing R81

I've heard G. does. Some of you are so unkind you have nearly pushed her to the brink on more than one occasion so I've been told.

Mr. & Mrs. Ripa-Consuelos and brood.

Imagine if they read Datalounge

R86 well we know Andy does.

bump

Not an actor but Meghan McCain reads hers and then snipes about it on The View.

Who was that no talent witch who almost had BroadwayWorld shut down over some comment made by a teenager? Patti somebody er other?

Taylor Swift owns this thread.

Diane Keaton reads every comment to the Instagram feed of her furnishings and her clothes.

Armie Hammer tracks the number of likes on his tweets. He also responds to comments in Instagram.

So Dolly might be aware some of us consider her gay royalty?

Meghan Markle writes some of hers.

R94 duh. Avril Lavigne, Celine Dione,shanai twayne etc are lesbians too.

Jennifer garner calls the press and tells them where she is going that day. I guess she is oblivious to how truly hideous her children are.

I wonder if Jen and Ben's calls to the paps are coordinated or independent of one another.

January Jones, constantly posting bikini photos so she must be looking for feedback.

When Sean Young was interviewed by The Guardian, she went into the comments to take on the "trolls". BTW the username used to be something related to her name (Mary Sean Young), I know anyone could create such an account but that MUST be her.

I wish Madonna would read the comments about her horrible plastic surgery and maybe lay off or reverse procedures.

But then she would cry "ageism" and "I'm a woman" and have more surgery because for her it's a pissing contest.

OP, how exactly do you know that Jennifer Lawrence and Charlize Theron read their own comments and not a social media manager?

Regarding Twitter, as long as it's if it's not an A-lister, it's usually them, isn't it? The ones who engage with it properly and reply to people, for example, I follow Eric Idle and John Cleese, they seem pretty genuine. And someone like James Woods, there's no way that's not him. He's practically sacrificed his career for Twitter.

Ummm hello 102 posts and no Andy Cohen?! He gets drunk or ski’d up ⛷ and starts posting histrionic rebuttals here.

CZJ

Richard Madden.

Hilaria Baldwin.

What has Hilaria Baldwin been in?

Andy Samberg for sure. Even reading DL. (Hi, Andy!)

I wonder if Tyra is reading her DWTS debut comments.

R33, around 15 years ago, I ran into this person who is the “star” of your blind item. I was out having dinner, as was the “star”. I never even whispered to my dining partner, “OMG! Look who’s there”!, because I find that to be tacky, and everyone wants their privacy. However,I will say that this person was as handsome AF, and appeared to “dazzle” everyone around him.

Anyhow, that evening, I feel asleep and had a dream that the “Star” was kneeling on me, while I slept, holding a rope in his hands. In my dream, I woke up and looked at him, as he slid the rope around my neck, and I asked him, “Why are you doing this?” “And he answered, in a very charming way “You’re one of those people who can actually see through me. I can’t have you running around and letting others know, now can I”?

Then he tightened the rope. As he did, his face was one of a monster.

It was the weirdest fucking dream and I actually forgot all about until recently, when I started reading about the boot shaped country.

Fucking weird AF, yes?

Well, I used to....

r111

Interesting dream for sure.

My late mother would refer to him as an "oily salesman" when she would see him mugging for the cameras on all the entertainment shows she watched. She often had strangely accurate dreams about random people. She had a dream about a wealthy neighbor she was barely acquainted with showing her all his various driver's licenses with different names from different states. A couple years later he was arrested on serious charges from another state under a different name.

Katie Holmes

Candace Cameron Bure

Goop is posting photos of herself in her birthday suit on her birthday so I guess she is fishing for comments.

Heidi Klum.

Carole Bayer Sager has herself on Google Alert. She reads everything people say about her plastic surgery and such.

BTW - Hi Carole. Love ya, gurl!

I've more of a Ton Wine fan.

*Toni

Richard Madden.

Remember the rumor that Joey Lawrence read DL?

[quote] I know Jennifer Lawrence and Charlize Theron report EVERY single negative comment on Daily Mail

How the fuck would you know?

Charlize' daughter is a Chatty Patty.

Deborra Lee Furness aka Mrs. Hugh "my husband isn't gay" Jackman,

Mariah Carey.

Lance Armstrong reads data lounge

James Van der Beek and his wife.

That married model who is dating Brad Pitt.

Is that pr relationship to push AJ's buttons or for real?

R130 pathetic if it is to push her buttons.

Alyssa Milano

Faye Dunaway announced she would answer respectful questions on twitter years ago.

It didn’t last long.

She recently posted that 1977 pic of her by the Beverly Hills Hotel pool and someone wrote, “ I'm not sure U know that the man who took care of that pool in Ur profile pix is 86 & homeless.“

No answer.

86, homeless and has Twitter?

William & Kate Windsor?

R135: the answer was probably from his niece or something. It doesn’t state “I am 86 and homeless.”

It was from a “SuzyEvans11”

[Quote] the answer was probably from his niece or something. It doesn’t state “I am 86 and homeless.”

His niece thinks Faye has more responsibility for him than she does?

Does she?

[italic]Does she?

Brian Austin Green

George Clooney has long time crazy stalker here at DL. She is a prolific homophobic troll and Trumper. She used this picture of herself as some kind of proof that George Clooney was managing her career and dropped some not so subtle hints that the were lovers. This was when he was dating a different woman every one to two years.

People made fun of her, but she held on.to her fantasy. That is, until Clooney's engagement was announced and she went completely bonkers.

Okay, she was already completely bonkers but she turned against Clooney, claiming he was marrying a terrorist and so forth. For the last several months she's been making Qanon type accusations against him because she's that level of looney.

She also once posted a long screed about how her delicate eyebrow situation made her an ethereal beauty.

Judge for yourself. She lost a lot of weight for this photo, and let's just say, it didn't last.

What does that have to do with the thread title?

r140 is Clooney's pr using the lazy poo deflection to try and shut down threads that contain the blind.

They are also introducing the QAnon theory as a backup tactic to use for future threats to shut down threads.

No one is jealous of your closet case client.

You are tiresome whoever you are.
