The 8 Most Talked-About Celeb Controversies of 2016… So Far

Nicole Briese
Jul 05, 2016

We have a love-hate relationship with social media. In fact, some of us even quit social media for a week earlier this year. On the one hand, it allows us to stay connected to our nearest and dearest, keep up on the latest trends (hair stencils, anyone?) and get an intimate peek into our fave celebs’ lives that we wouldn’t otherwise normally see (we seriously melted over this pic of baby Luna swooning over daddy John Legend). On the other hand, social media also opens the door to compare yourself to others and has a tendency to bring the drams — and plenty of it!

1. Becky with the good hair: How else could we start off a social media controversy post than by mentioning (gasp!) Beckygate? There was no bigger Internet scandal in 2016 than that of “Becky with the good hair.” Taken from a line in Beyonce’s surprise Lemonade album, in which Bey tells someone (*ahem,* Jay-Z) that he better call “Becky with the good hair,” fans were in an uproar over who this mysterious “Becky” might be. Rachel Roy and Rita Ora were the Beyhive’s prime suspects, and they attacked the women with a vengeance via social media. The feud had everyone from Rachel Ray (who sent Rachel Roy the best gift ever) to Lori Loughlin weighing in, and while some of it was in good fun, the nasty comments were also a strong reminder that we NEED to be aware of the implications of online bullying.

2. Kim Kardashian’s NSFW selfie: While Kim has always been known for being somewhat provocative (between her infamous tape and her Playboy photo shoot, it’s clear she’s not the most conservative woman on the planet), she pretty much broke the Internet when she posted a certain NSFW pregnant selfie. In addition to opening herself up to the opinions of, well, the entire Internet, celebs such as Chloe Grace Moretz to Bette Midler also took to Twitter to slam the star, prompting this epic essay response from Kim herself. Turns out, Kim doesn’t really care what you think of her, as she proved when she posted another shocking selfie just earlier this month. Haters gonna’ hate. (Photo via Andreas Rentz/Getty)

3. Blake Lively’s “Oakland booty:” While Blake is typically our social media QUEEN (particularly via her epic fashion run in Cannes), the actress got herself into some hot water with fans when she referenced a Sir Mix-A-Lot song from the ‘90s, saying that she had “an L.A. face with an Oakland booty.” Claiming that the remark was highly offensive to women of color, the move had many followers up in arms. The controversy became so prominent, Sir Mix-A-Lot himself weighed in the issue, jumping to Blake’s defense by saying, “For her to look at her butt and that little waist and to say “L.A. face with an Oakland booty,” doesn’t that mean the norm has changed, that the beautiful people have accepted our idea of beautiful? That’s the way I took it.” Annnnnd mic drop. (Photo via Dimitrios Kambouris/Getty)

4. Demi Lovato vs. Nicki Minaj: Nicki Minaj is no stranger to a Twitter feud. You’ll likely recall that it was just last year that Taylor Swift who sparked the rapper’s ire (or was it the other way around?) when Nicki seemingly slammed Taylor’s nomination for MTV’s best album of the year. Taylor clapped back with a response of her own, and following a short-lived feud, the two seemed to reconcile their beef onstage. This year’s Minaj drams revolved around a photo taken at the Met Gala, where Nicki apparently shaded Demi Lovato when she gave her some MAJOR side eye in a group shot, and also shunned her from the photo’s tag online. Never one to keep her true feelings to herself, Demi was quick to fire back via both Instagram and Snapchat, though Nicki didn’t take the bait — the whole thing has since kind of fizzled out on its own. Womp, womp. (Photo via Dimitrios Kambouris /Getty)

5. Kanye West vs. the world: Oh, boy. Where do we even start with this one? Kanye’s shocking social media moments this year have been seemingly never ending. From his controversial endorsement of Bill Cosby (“Bill Cosby is innocent!” he tweeted amidst allegations of sexual abuse against Cosby) to the insane Twitter rant he launched against Wiz Khalifa and ex-girlfriend Amber Rose after Wiz expressed his distaste for Kanye’s new album title, Waves, it’s been one wild ride. Then, there’s his ongoing feud with Taylor Swift, which even wife Kim Kardashian is sounding off on. It was perhaps Kanye who summarized his collective feuds best, however (and started another 12 or so in the process) when he premiered his extremely controversial “Famous” video, from which the fallout is still rolling in (*cough cough* Lena Dunham).

6. Demi Lovato vs. Mariah Carey: It’s been a rough year on social media for Demi. After her little spat with Nicki, the star not only publicly shared the loss of her grandmother and a split from her longtime boyfriend, Wilmer Valderrama, she clapped back at Mariah Carey following Instagram shade the pop diva was throwing at other artists, such as Ariana Grande and Jennifer Lopez. Mariah’s lambs did NOT take kindly to the response, attacking Demi’s account in such a swarm that she may have even quit social media over it. (Photo via Mike Coppola/Getty)

7. Taylor Swift’s VERY public breakup with Calvin Harris: Seemingly overnight, everyone’s favorite couple was no more, and the breakup? It wasn’t pretty. In fact, much of it played out right in front of our very eyes via social media, and believe us when we say, YIKES! Calvin upped the stakes with some very, um, salacious messages, and even a very pointed fashion choice, but all was seemingly for naught, as Taylor seems to have VERY much moved on with new beau Tom Hiddleston, insurance claims be darned. Sorry, Calvin. (Photo via Jason Kempin/Getty)

8. Justin Timberlake’s BET snafu: Though JT is usually quite a poet with words (his reaction to the Orlando tragedies had us in tears), many fans were outraged over his response to Jesse Williams’ epic BET Awards speech, sparking a tremendous amount of backlash after he was allegedly dismissive of a fan who called him out for cultural appropriation. Justin quickly backpedaled, but the damage may have already been done. (Photo via Pascal le Segretain/Getty)

What Is Threads? Everything To Know About The Latest Social Media App

Meta, the parent company to Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp, recently introduced their latest social media platform to enter the ring, called Threads. The new text-sharing app takes inspiration directly from Instagram, offering a more conversational space via words, rather than photos and videos. If you’ve been feeling skeptical about adopting yet another social media, we have the deets on all things Threads. Read on to vet the platform before you hit ‘download.’

What is Threads?

Threads is a new, text-based social media app built by the teams at Instagram. It’s for sharing text updates and joining public conversations. Sounds just like Twitter, right? 🤪 According to Meta, the mission for Threads is to “take what Instagram does best and expand that to text, creating a positive and creative space to express your ideas.”

How does Threads work?

Threads is connected to Instagram. You can log into the platform using your IG account to begin sharing text posts up to 500 characters long. In these posts, you can include links, photos, *and* videos up to 5 minutes. It’s a scrollable social media app that also allows you to like and repost others’ content. You can choose to follow the same people you follow on Instagram, if they have a Threads account, plus the platform recommends content from new creators you don’t follow.

Is Threads like Twitter?

From what we’ve gathered, Threads is very similar to Twitter. After all, Mark Zuckerberg candidly acknowledged that the platform would be Twitter's competitor before it launched. Both apps follow a newsfeed-type structure and grant users the ability to like and repost content from other users, but Threads posts can reach up to 500 characters, while posts on Twitter are limited to 280.

Is Threads safe to use?

According to Meta, Threads is safe to use. It’s closely connected to Instagram, which Meta has longtime security investments in.

“As with all our products, we’re taking safety seriously, and we’ll enforce Instagram’s Community Guidelines on content and interactions in the app,” Meta’s website says. “Since 2016, we’ve invested more than $16 billion in building up the teams and technologies needed to protect our users, and we remain focused on advancing our industry-leading integrity efforts and investments to protect our community.”

Is Threads popular?

Though it’s still in its infancy, Threads logged 5 million sign-ups *just* in its first four hours of existence, and according to Mark Zuckerberg, the app now hosts more than 100 million users. We’d say it’s pretty popular at the moment!

Is Threads free?

Yes, Threads is free on Apple and Google app stores.

6 Crazy "Outer Banks" Opinions That Would Totally Change The Show

I'll admit out of the many teen dramas I've consumed, Outer Banks is one of the most ridiculous. But the insanity surrounding the plot is half the reason it's enjoyable! John B. wrestling an alligator with his bare hands? Kiara getting kidnapped then making a daring escape in her PJ's? John B. and Sarah getting married (kind of) by the power of "the sky, the stars, and the sea" after escaping the SBI?

Considering my favorite fan theory for the future is that Madelyn Cline's Sarah and Rudy Pankow's JJ learn they're secret siblings, I know the crazy train isn't slowing down anytime soon. I took to Reddit to find the wildest Outer Bankshot takes and I was not disappointed. Keep reading to see if you agree with any!

JJ and Kiara Never Should Have Happened

Image via Netflix

While JJ and Kiara is one of the most popular ships on the show, a lot of Outer Banks fans think the "no Pogue-on-Pogue macking" rule from the pilot should have stayed in effect. The individual romances between Kiara and JJ, John B., and Pope make the story really messy, and the fact the show writes Kiara to be with all three of them in the span of three years gives a lot of viewers the ick.

I'll be team #Jiara forever (and literally screamed when The Backseat Lovers' "Kilby Girl" started playing during the motorcycle ride in season 3), but I'll say it would incredibly compelling to see a friend group take care of each other as much as the Pogues do without ever crossing over into romantic territory. That's found family, after all!

Pope Should Have Ditched The Treasure Hunt

Image via Netflix

One Reddit user is convinced that "Pope should’ve focused on his future in school instead of giving everything up to search for treasure." And TBH, I totally agree.

In season 1, Pope has a breakthrough about the hidden treasure in the middle of his scholarship interview. He ditches the scholarship committee to tell the rest of the Pogues, throwing away a crazy educational opportunity. Pope beats himself up for it, and his parents definitely aren't pleased, but at least it meant he got to stay in the show instead of leaving for college, which leads me to...

Outer Banks Should Have Started With The Pogues In Their 20s

Image via Netflix

As one of the only people alive who loves the post-time jump One Tree Hill, I would have loved to see OBX start off with the characters in their 20s (although it looks like that's where Outer Banks season 4 will pick up!). This would eliminate SO MANY problems from the jump because the Pogues wouldn't have to worry about missing school, they'd be more self-sufficient, and instead of being the same old high school drama, it could have provided a commentary on figuring out life in your 20s the same way Friends did.

Rafe Shouldn't Have Any Kind Of Redemption Arc In Outer Banks Season 4

Image via Netflix

Drew Starkey the man that you are. According to one Reddit user, "Rafe should not have a love interest or a redemption arc" like we see in season 3. We spent all of season 1 and season 2 establishing that Rafe (played by Drew) would do anything it took to get what he wanted (including one successful murder and two other attempts?!). He shows next to no remorse for his actions, and exploring his literal psychopathic tendencies would take the show to a whole new level.

Big John Should Never Have Returned

Image via Netflix

John B.'s dad's disappearance is the catalyst for the Pogues' journey at the beginning of Outer Banks, and Big John's return means the story feels somewhat repetitive in the third season, and it undoes a lot of the growth we've seen from John B. Plus, Big John is just SO chaotic, selfish, and dramatic. If he had truly died in season 1, we could have seen John B. wrestle with that finality, and how to cope with loss in the face of finding the treasure and falling in love with Sarah.

And Finally, Outer Banks Should Have Ended After Season 1

Image via Netflix

Outer Banks season 1 was exactly what we needed at the height of the pandemic. It was escapist — both in terms of the beach vacation vibes, but also because the '00s aesthetic took us right back to simpler times — and it had such a wonderfully resolved finale that some fans think nothing has matched it.

Do you agree with any of these Outer Banks opinions? I'm such a romance fan, I don't know what I'd do if the show didn't have JJ and Kiara get together! Check out all the best New TV Shows coming this year for more.

Free Twitter is Coming to an End...Again

Cherish your little blue checkmark while you can, because pretty soon you’ll have to pay for it.

Gone are the days of free verification. Starting on April 20, Twitter, the social media company bought by multi-billionaire Elon Musk, will revoke all verified statuses across the platform. That is, unless you opt-in to the paid Twitter Blue or Twitter Verified Organizations plans. Read more to find out how much you'll have to shell out to stand out online.

How much will it cost to be verified on Twitter?

For Twitter-obsessed individual users, a verified blue check mark will run you $8/month (if you purchase through the web), or $11/month via in-app payment on iOS and Android devices.

If professional Tweeters want a gold or gray check mark, they’ll need to fork over for $1,000/month (plus tax) and $50/month (plus tax) for each additional affiliate sub-account through their Twitter Verified Organizations program.

Why will Twitter verification cost money now?

The social media platform first introduced the coveted blue check marks in 2009 to help users identify the authenticity of celebrities, politicians, brands and other accounts “of public interest.” Up until April 1, verification was historically free.

“Far too many corrupt legacy Blue ‘verification’ check marks exist, so no choice but to remove legacy Blue in coming months,” Musk tweeted in November.

When will my blue checkmark be revoked?

twitter.com

“Final date for removing legacy Blue checks is 4/20”

Initially, Musk said that April 1st was the deadline, though that has since changed to April 20. Perhaps from backlash over the change, perhaps for the 4/20 date...who knows.

The Reaction From Fellow Tweeters?

In true Twitter fashion, un-paid verified users decided to fan the flames and go out in great discourse dumpster fire on their last day with their little blue check.

We absolutely love Twitter, but we can’t help but wonder if this really a way to democratize the platform, or a way for Twitter to climb out of their $13 billion in debt…maybe it’s a little of both.

So tell us, Brit + Co readers, will you be paying for verification? Let us know in the comments below.

Mariska Hargitay’s Powerful “Me Too” Message Proves She’s Olivia Benson IRL

Mariska Hargitay is the woman of the hour anywhere she goes, with her iconic Law & Order: SVUrole as Olivia Benson under her belt for the last 25 years. The character is an absolute advocate to women — and assault victims of any gender — through her words, actions, and powerful convictions of each perpetrator on the show. She takes great care with her victims and pursues perpetrators with fervor, and slowly as you watch the show..the line blurs between Olivia and Mariska.

This isn't anything new — just recently Mariska literally stopped production on the show to help a child (who mistook her for an actual police officer) find her mom. It's just who Mariska is. She walks the walk and talks the talk — including during her speech at Variety's Power of Women's Power of Women event.

Image via NBC Universal

As a Power of Women honoree, Mariska was recognized in regards to her work as an advocate for sexual assault survivors. She took the stage and used her platform to discuss rape and assault conviction reversals, shining a light on the recent overturned ruling in Harvey Weinstein's landmark NYC case. Here's what she said:

Today I want to talk about reversing convictions, and more specifically I want to talk to you about how impossible it is to reverse mine. It’s impossible to reverse my conviction that survivors matter. It is impossible to reverse my conviction that what happens to us matters, and that our society must respond to survivors with a more a compassionate, holistically, deeper, and more nuanced understanding of what healing means.

It is impossible to reverse my conviction that after a trauma, survivors can reclaim lives of hope, of possibility, of audacious risk, beautiful intimacy, and glorious, glorious abundant joy. And I stand before you as evidence of that statement.

It is impossible to reverse my conviction that we must listen to survivors as experts on what justice means. It is extraordinary how little their voices are consulted, let alone incorporated, in the process of deciding how to repair harm. Justice is not a one-size-fits-all journey.

It is impossible to reverse my conviction that patriarchal impunity has to end. Patriarchal impunity is when a male-dominated system exempts perpetrators from punishment. Studies show that only 20% of all rape cases in the U.S. are reported to the police, and that between 5 and 0% of all rapes result in a guilty plea or a conviction. So why do 80% of victims not report? Because they're met with a system that grants impunity to perpetrators; a system that blames victims; a system that accepts only those victims who are experienced as "real" rape; a system that completely misunderstands the neurobiology of trauma, which causes behavior in women that doesn't fit the picture of how a "real victim" would act.

Is that change needed that victims should just pull themselves together? Just buck up and report anyway? No. No, it's the system that receives them that needs to change

It is impossible to reverse my conviction — and the conviction of my extraordinary team, The Joyful Heart — that the backlog of untested rape kits can be brought to zero; that the testing of all new kits must be mandated; that we need a statewide kit tracking system; and that survivors have the right to access the status of their kits.

It is impossible to reverse my conviction that grammar — yes, grammar — that we use when we speak about rape must change. In the sentence, "A woman is raped," there's a crime and there's a victim, but there's no perpetrator. Where's the perpetrator? Where is he? Statistically, as we know, most likely he's walking free. He's so free that he doesn't even appear in the language about the crime that he committed. Is that not extraordinary? It's extraordinary that in the very grammar, the perpetrator goes free. Reintroducing perpetrators in the language of rape will make some very unwieldy grammar, but that's the nature of change. It's unwieldy, it's messy, it's uncomfortable, but it's necessary.

Image via NBC Universal

Hargitay continued on in her prolific speech to describe that rape shouldn't be considered a "crime of passion" because it's "not simply the next step in the trajectory of his passion" when a man takes a consensual hookup too far and assaults a woman against her will. She stated that it's "an exercise of power," doubling down that the language we use is important.

The speech went on to address that rape is both about power and control, as a "construct" that was "built, and assembled, and reinforced over time." She noted that there are people with these positions of power — and she specifically called out those in the entertainment industry — that could make a difference and aligned themselves to victims and survivors.

After this and some other remarks, Hargitay specifically called out the Weinstein conviction reversal. She said:

I do want to say something about the Harvey Weinstein conviction, specifically about the reason that it was overturned: too many women's voices. Too many women's voices were allowed to speak. Hallelujah! Amen! I can't imagine anything more beautiful than that. The Daily podcast episode talked about how it was so risky for the prosecution to have that many women testify. Risky to let women speak? You're damn right it is!

Too many women speaking brings change. Too many women speaking shakes the establishment. Too many women means we get listened to more, and people might actually hear what we have to say. Look what happened when women started saying just two words, right? Me too — just as an example — a tidal wave of change. Me too.

And then of course, there was the response: the Me Too Movement. The backlash. The examination of whether the changes that have come are lasting, or are even positive. Of course there's a backlash! What did they expect? For women to speak repeatedly, loudly, together, with a purpose — for there to be no backlash? The backlash is evidence of how powerful those voices were, how powerful those voices ARE.

Here’s When You Can Watch “Emily in Paris” Season 4

After Emily in Paris season 3 dropped on Netflix in December of 2022, we were hoping to get the fourth installment of the hit show in 2023. But production halted when the WGA writers' strike, then the SAG-AFTRA actors' strike went to affect, and our beloved cast and crew campaigned for better wages and industry protection. But with the end of the writers' strike, and new SAG negotiations, Emily in Paris season 4 finally began production in February 2024 — and I can already tell you there's sure to be plenty of drama and French fashion this time around.

Not only will we see Emily in Paris (see what I did there?!) but she's also pulling an Audrey Hepburn and taking a little Roman Holiday. That's right — our favorite Parisians are heading to Italy! If that doesn't sound like a dreamy comfort show then I don't know what does. Here's everything we know about the upcoming season of your favorite TV brain candy!!

Is Emily in Paris season 4 coming soon?

Image via Lily Collins/Instagram

Via Variety, Emily in Paris season 4 began production in Paris the week of January 15! "Did someone say Saison Quatre?!" Lily Collins says in her Instagram post announcing production. "Finally reunited with my @emilyinparis fam back in Paris and it feels so good. Although, I may need to brush up on my selfie skills for Emily’s sake…"

Now the wait is over! According to the official announcementfor Emily in Paris, we know part one drops on Netflix August 15, followed by part 2 on September 12. I've been impatiently waiting for this considering we didn't know how filming would be impacted by things like the WGA writers strike!

Is Emily in Paris filmed in Paris?

Image via Lily Collins/Instagram

Yes, Emily in Paris is filmed on location in Paris! We got our first look at Emily in Paris season 4 when Lily Collins and Ashley Park were seen filming in the City of Love (via Daily Mail). The costumes for the series are still as bold and bright as ever, with Ashley's Mindy wearing cobalt and metallic boots, and Lily's Emily dressed head-to-toe in lemon yellow. I can't wait to see what these best friends get up to this season! Check out our Paris travel recommendations to live out your own Emily in Paris dreams ;).

On April 27, Lily Collins confirmed Emily in Paris season 4 had wrapped its France shoot and that the cast & crew have swapped the City of Love for the Eternal City! "When you’re the first ones on the dance floor at the Paris wrap party. Next stop: Rome!" she says on Instagram. Late spring is literally the perfect time to film in Italy and I just know this season is going to give me more wanderlust than ever before. I need gelato!

What's Emily In Paris season 4 about?

Image via Netflix

Season 3 left us with a huge cliffhanger: Alfie breaks up with Emily, Camille learns she's pregnant with Gabriel's baby, Benoit's "Mon Soleil" has been chosen for the Eurovision Song Contest, and Emily and Gabriel realize they've been in love with each other the whole time. Whew.

Emily in Paris season 4 will have a ton of cliffhangers to bring full circle, and a bunch of damage that all the characters need to heal. We know from the Netflix TUDUM fan event that we might also see Emily have to deal with an ultimatum head-on, as well as an unexpected twist. Plus, it looks like she's heading on a "Roman holiday," according to lead actress Lily Collins. We'll take any nod to an Audrey Hepburn movie, please and thank you!

Is Alfie coming back in season 4 of Emily in Paris?

Image via Netflix

We don't have OFFICIAL word on whether Alfie (played by Lucien Laviscount) will return for Emily in Paris season 4, but we're hoping for his sake that he gets some closure. Lucien wants to come back as well! "[The dream is] to keep this gravy train going and just to kind of really live in this world a little bit longer," he says in an interview with Elle. " The writers on the show and the creators behind it and everyone that comes into contact with it is so amazing and fantastic. Their minds [have] way, way, way, way surpassed mine. So, yeah. I’ll let them do their thing.”

Who else is in the Emily in Paris season 4 cast?

Image via Netflix

We can expect the rest of the cast — Lily Collins as Emily, Lucas Bravo as Gabriel, Ashley Park as Mindy, Camille Razat as Camille, Philippine Leroy-Beaulieu as Sylvie, Samuel Arnold as Julian, and Bruno Gouery as Luc — to return.

Will there be a season 5 of Emily in Paris?

Image via Marie Etchegoyen/Netflix

It looks like Emily in Paris season 4 will not be the final season, according to creator Darren Star. “There’s a lot more story to tell here and we’re not wrapping things up anytime soon,” Star tells Elle. “And also hopefully season four isn’t the end either. I feel like we’re all creatively feeling like we’re in the middle of something not heading towards the end.”

Darren also told Deadline season 4 is "not necessarily conceived as a final chapter. I think like every other show, it’s a rich ensemble. There’s no end in sight until everybody feels like it’s time to end. And I don’t think this show is limited by a number of seasons, I think it’s limited by everybody’s enthusiasm and excitement about doing it and telling stories about these characters."

We'll take as many seasons of Emily in Paris as they'll give us!!

What has the cast said about Emily in Paris season 4?

Image via Marie Etchegoyen/Netflix

Lucas Bravo told People he's excited for a coming-of-age for Gabriel. "When you start a character, then there's a year where you experience the world and you mature, you become another person and you come back and it's exactly the day you left off," he says. "I'm happy that in season four I'll be able to bring more of what I became and what I've experienced in the past four years."

Even though Lily Collins is now an executive producer, she doesn't want to know TOO much about the future of the show. “Darren and I speak, on occasion, about where he’s thinking of going, but he also doesn’t wanna spoil too much for me because there is a fine line,” she tells Collider. “I don’t wanna know everything because I want to be led with the writing, but I am also curious because, as a producer wanting to celebrate the other characters, I’m very curious to see what their trajectories are."

What happened at the end of Emily in Paris season 3?

Image via Netflix

To be fully prepared for Emily in Paris season 4, it's important to remember just what happened during season 3! The junior season was a bumpy ride for Emily, and it ends with the craziest finale yet. After Camille and Gabriel decide to get married, Camille stops the wedding, saying she knows Gabriel is in love with Emily instead of her. This declaration leads Alfie to break up with our leading lady because he refuses to be her second choice (and honestly, I respect it). That's not the only shocker because Camille also reveals that she's pregnant with Gabriel's child, which comes as a surprise to everyone. Meanwhile, Mindy learns Benoit has submitted a song (specifically "Mon Soleil") to the Eurovision Song Contest and Laurent has his heart set on opening a club in Paris.

Are you excited for Emily in Paris Season 4? Give us your craziest theory in the comments, and check out our Facebook for more pop culture news. Read up on how This Emily In Paris Theory Could Be Why Emily And Gabriel Aren’t Together (Yet).
