Sometimes I get basic and like to read gossip.
So, thereâs this thread going about that mainly focuses on Dove Cameron.
https://prettyuglylittleliar.net/topic/3903-dove-cameron/?page=37
I cannot and do not make any claims to the validity of the threadâs contents.
This is all internet gossip from an anonymous âset employeeâ who does not name themselves. Please take this with a grain of salt. I do not necessarily believe this gossip, and I write about it mostly for entertainment purposes. Remember, this is the internet, anyone can make up anything. Whatever you happen to believe is true is based solely on your own preconceptions and biases, as nothing is substantiated, and it all amounts to hearsay.
Please also remember that any anecdote is solely from one personâs point of view. A point of view they are expressing behind the back of said celebrity who is not given a chance to defend themselves nor have they put forth their version of events. Â
It does not paint her in a flattering light. It literally goes on for 61 pages of mostly people ragging on her plastic surgery (âPSâ). I am not a plastic surgeon, so I cannot 100% say what she has gotten done, but as a layperson and from my own opinion, I would suspect that she has had fillers (specifically for her lips), a nose job, and something done to her cheeks. I do agree with that she looks vastly different in each movie, with more work done as time progresses. Iâve also seen her stint on Shameless and bearing in mind that she was 15/16 vs 19/20, I still think she had a lot of work done. I donât think her transformation can be brushed off as losing baby fat or growing into her looks. Â Â
Iâm not super offended by PS. Thereâs this notion that celebrities maintain this impossible standard, but I think it goes both ways. The public isnât interested in flaws. They want and even demand perfection from their idols. Fans are quick to âcancelâ people or they move on to the next hot new thing. Itâs kind of a destructive co-dependent relationship. Like honestly, how many celebrities would you âstanâ if you didnât find them attractive? And what do we find attractive? How quick are people to point out flaws in candid photos? Iâm not saying everyone does this, but itâs enough to be pervasive in celebrity culture and I think itâs unfair to try to say it doesnât exist or to not acknowledge the extreme pressure celebrities are under. The thread itself is an example of it. Itâs mostly people ragging on Dove about how bad they think she looks now.
No one is famous without our permission and I have yet to see anyone boost anyone who wasnât at least conventionally good looking. If they are selling an impossible standard, we are the ones buying it.
So, no. I do not find PS all that problematic in itself. I will agree there is something disingenuous about going on about self-love while heavily filtering/photoshopping pictures on top of PS.
But I also find it disingenuous to talk about body dysmorphia or the mental health dangers of PS and then rag on someone and speculate about every PS they may have had.
Pot, meet kettle.
People bring up that young people look up to her and while I agree that she does have great influence, I just donât know if itâs really her (or any celebritiesâ) responsibility to be a good role model. A human is a human, is a human, right? No one person is ever going to be perfect and while they may do something admirable in one part of their life, that doesnât mean they have to be admirable in every part of their life. Thatâs another impossible standard fans put on celebrities. I think we should all critically think when giving our time, attention, energy, etcâŠto anyone. Learning how to critically think is a parentâs job. My mother specifically raised me without celebrity magazines and to take into account what they do and say, and to be skeptical of anything anyone tries to sell me.
Why is it a celebritiesâ job to be a third parent?
Theyâre only responsible for what they do, youâre responsible for what you do.
Holding celebrities accountable for false things they say or try to hock is different. Example, if X celebrity says that this specific tea or vitamin is what they owe their beauty and success to when really itâs the lifestyle they can afford and genetics. Then yes, point out that what theyâre selling is snake oil and a lie or just donât buy it. At some point we have to take personal responsibility for what we consume. Or if these are impressionable young people, then hold their parents accountable as well. If theyâre so young, then theyâre not buying this stuff, their parents are. And we should take into account what celebrities associate themselves with. I think itâs telling if a person literally doesnât care what they sell as long as they make money. If someone is willing to sell you dangerous laxatives and call it a diet, that should clue you in on how much they respect their fans and you should rethink giving them your money.
Again, the celebrity is just the spokesperson/seller. Itâs up to us to actually research and determine if what theyâre selling is worth it or safe. Itâs also up to us to figure out if the celebrity uses their fame wisely. If no to either, then itâs also up to us to keep admiring them or not. Celebrities tend to change their tune if their money is threatened. Â Â Â
I feel like Doveâs PS in itself is a non-issue. Whatever pic of herself that she posts on Insta or any surgery she admits to is her own business. How I react and what I spend my money on is my business. I do not buy into her proclamations of self-love, I do not buy into her vitamins, I do not buy into the highlight reel of the life sheâs trying to portray. I see her for what she is: a celebrity. No more, no less.
I am interested in the reports of her diva behavior. Throwing fits, stealing from set, and yelling at set employees does give a bigger picture of her as a person. And it also helps shatter the illusion of a perfect, happy, person. I donât want to demonize her, but it is good to humanize celebrities. I do think people should take into account how celebrities treat people that are their subordinates.
I donât think anyone is so talented or famous that they should be given a pass to be a monster to people.
Dove is not so unique in looks or talent where she canât be replaced. Â
There were implications that she is struggling with an eating disorder, it kind of fed into why she may be getting all this PS and the types of photos she takes for Insta. I also wonder if it explains (not excuses) her behavior. Sheâs probably constantly hungry!
They also alleged that she had been taken âillegalâ diet pills. The illegal part might be relative, because the commenter mentioned it may have been Hydroxycut. In the States, itâs an over the counter diet supplement that is mostly just a high dose of caffeine and some herbs. Itâs not like an upper or some prescription. Hydroxycut is legal in the States and she probably just brought it over with her. I donât think itâs a controlled substance, merely just banned for sale in Canada. Iâd be more worried that sheâs taking it with other stimulants like coffee and soda.
Thereâs also allegations that she had been cheating on her former fiancĂ© with Thomas during filming of Descendantâs 2, while Thomas also was in another relationship. These things happen, theyâre human. Itâs a personal issue they should deal with. I wouldnât want either as a significant other in light of it, but thatâs about it. I would be weary of anyone who has an affair as potential mates. If theyâll cheat with you, chances are theyâll cheat on you. But Iâm never going to date either of them, so itâs not really my place to judge.
Another tidbit that came from the thread that Iâm interested in is Mitchell Hopeâs alleged drug use. The comments didnât specify what he was on, only that he seemed âstrung out.â So, if I were making a bet, then itâd be on him to write a tell-all book. Iâm pretty jaded on the fact that there are drug addled teen stars. I think itâs just par for the course. Disney makes sure they have a clean image while making and promoting the movies, they literally will protect and pay for good coverage. But once that protection is over then everything comes to light. Mitchell isnât even really the most famous of the stars for Descendants. He hasnât really done anything worth noting outside of Descendants. It looks like he has a role in a Netflix Christmas rom-com coming out, but again nothing to really be too impressed with.
I donât see him lasting long if heâs already showing up to work high. Money goes quick between jobs, especially if youâre blowing it on drugs. Thereâs also an allegation of hooking up with a set employee. I donât see anything wrong in terms of two consenting adults, but itâs bad form professional wise. Itâs especially in poor taste if heâs 1) obvious about it and 2) makes it public knowledge that itâs just a hook up. Have your fun and all but be discreet and classy about it. Otherwise youâre burning bridges. I think sheâll have more issues than he would, which is why discretion should have been practiced. Like even if he had no intention of getting into a relationship with her, at least respect your partner enough to not endanger their livelihood. But I guess sheâll live and learn.
I was glad to see that Cameron really wasnât mentioned, at least not in terms of anything bad like diva behavior. He was implicated in stealing items from the set (like costume pieces) but the commenter used the universal âeveryone,â so they didnât outright name him like with Dove and Sofia, so they may have been hyperbolic. Otherwise they said he was always nice, which is good to hear.
I saw a post from another blog asking their opinion about Cameron being friends with Dove despite the behavior alleged in the thread. I want to say that I think their friendship is over conflated. Most of their interactions have been for promos/BTS for Descendants. I donât think I recall ever seeing them hang together on a purely platonic level, not like he did with Sophie and Karan.
I think people, mostly kids, want to see their movie best friends be best friends in real life. I feel like all the promo stuff insinuated that they all LOVED each other, and they all got along ALL THE TIME. I think most people know that thereâs never an instance where literally every person in a large group gets along all the time. They might be cordial and polite to them to be professional, and I think we need to remember that the cast are co-workers.
We also have to remember that theyâre young and want to do well in the industry. They wonât want to get a reputation of being difficult or even a snitch. So, while Cameron may or may not have liked Dove that deeply on a personal level, Iâve always felt he was the utmost professional. Heâs not going to antagonize her or call her out unless she did something super egregious like hit someone (and maybe not even then, I did not know him personally). From the thread, Dove threw tantrums and yelled at people, none of that warrants risking his reputation for. Even the original poster of the thread wouldnât give out their name for fear of reprimand and possible legal action. On some level, they too do not think itâs worth calling Dove out for any real consequences.
Theyâre willing to gossip about it, but theyâre not willing to give actual credibility to their story.
When his manager was indicted, he immediately fired him. I think that speaks to his character and if Dove had done something truly heinous, he would have stood up to her.
We also have to remember that itâs possible that this entire thread in terms of Doveâs behavior might be completely made up. We have nothing to go on besides this one personâs account, and we have no idea who this person is. Literally anyone can create a username, open a thread account, and say âI work for X company and I had Y position with Z celebrity.â I canât verify any of that. One person can also make dozens of accounts, say theyâre different people, and try to tell the same story. Again, that doesnât make any of it true. Even if we took their account as true, we only have their side of the story.
I would never judge Cameron or the others on who theyâre friends with based on salacious gossip.
