00:00You don't become a pop star without having a big personality, and you can't have a big
00:04personality without putting some people off.
00:06These pop stars are loved by fans, but to the people who really know them?
00:11Different story.
00:12Here's a look at just some of the many celebs who can't stand Ariana Grande.
00:17Memes have been comparing Grande to Carrey for years, so it's only fitting that Carrey
00:21referenced another popular meme to subtly diss Grande.
00:24Back in the day, as you probably know, Carrey dismissed rival Jennifer Lopez by simply saying,
00:30Well, after that became one of the hottest memes of 2016, Carrey went back to that well
00:35to similarly deny any knowledge of diva-wannabe Ariana's existence.
00:40Ariana Grande, do you know her?
00:41No, I really don't.
00:42Honestly, I'm not familiar with her.
00:44I listen to hip-hop more than I listen to pop.
00:47Of course, considering Carrey sometimes doesn't even know when she's performing live, she
00:51might have just been telling the truth.
00:54It is perhaps one of the worst-kept secrets in Nickelodeon history that Grande and fellow
00:58Victorious co-star Victoria Justice were not huge fans of each other.
01:02The drama started in 2013, when Grande seemingly chucked Justice under the bus for alleged
01:08bullying on the set of Victorious.
01:10Grande then upped the stakes, seemingly blaming Justice for the show's cancellation, claiming,
01:15The only reason Victorious ended is because one girl didn't want to do it.
01:19She chose to do a solo tour instead of a cast tour.
01:22If we had done a cast tour, Nickelodeon would have ordered another season of Victorious
01:26while Sam and Cat filmed simultaneously, but she chose otherwise.
01:30In a since-deleted tweet, Justice seemed to fire back at Grande, saying,
01:35Some people would throw someone that they consider a friend under the bus just to make
01:38themselves look good.
01:40Hashtag stop being a phony, hashtag if they only knew.
01:43Since then, Justice has denied there's a feud at all, but the fact that Grande reunited with
01:48the Victorious cast for her 23rd birthday — and didn't invite Justice — suggests
01:52where there's smoke, there's still burning hatred.
01:56Justice should take solace in the fact that she's not the only co-star who's ended up
02:00in a public spat with Grande.
02:02This time, things kicked off because of a TMZ report alleging Grande was making more
02:06money than her Sam and Cat co-star Jeanette McCurdy, even though they shared top billing.
02:12Grande denied the pay rumors on her Facebook page,
02:14I am not making more money than my co-star, nor do I think I should be.
02:18So we can all move on and get out of our heads that this was a money thing, cause I don't
02:22play like that at all.
02:23I am, have always been, and always will be about equality and fairness.
02:28McCurdy's Twitter feed, though, hinted at a different story after she chose to opt out
02:32of Nickelodeon's Kids' Choice Awards in 2014.
02:35I was put in an uncomfortable, compromising, unfair situation.
02:39Many of you have guessed what it is, and I had to look out for me.
02:42I chose to not go because sticking up for what is right and what is fair is what my
02:46mom taught me is always the most important thing.
02:50Just days later, Sam and Cat went on hiatus, and by July 2014, the show had been nixed.
02:55To add insult to injury, following the show's cancellation, Grande shared a lengthy post
03:00expressing her love and gratitude for the short-lived show, but conveniently neglected
03:05to give a shout-out to co-star McCurdy.
03:07In August 2014, Big Sean and Grande were spotted holding hands backstage at the MTV Video Music
03:14Awards.
03:15After eight whirlwind months, though, they reportedly ended the relationship quietly
03:18and amicably.
03:20Things weren't all rainbows and puppies, though.
03:22On Kanye West's song, Champions, Big Sean apparently threw some shade at his ex, saying
03:27he was
03:28"...subtracting the negative energy."
03:30Still sounds pretty negative to us, dude.
03:32One of Grande's dumber celebrity feuds was with Giuliana Rancic, who went on an epic
03:37rant in 2014 about how Grande had acted like a total diva in an interview by demanding
03:42they switch seats so the camera could show off her good side.
03:46Rancic needed to sit there to show off her good side.
03:50She complained in a video that she
03:51"...had to fight 13 years to get this side to the camera."
03:55It's almost too sad to even think about.
03:57Legendary singer and actress Bette Midler has never been shy about sharing her opinion,
04:02and in a 2014 interview, she shared the opinion that Grande symbolizes pretty much everything
04:07wrong with both music and society at large, saying Grande's videos are symptomatic of
04:12the
04:13"...pornification of music.
04:14It's terrible.
04:16It's always surprising to see someone like Ariana Grande with that silly high voice,
04:19a very wholesome voice, slithering around on a couch, looking so ridiculous.
04:24But it's not my business, I'm not her mother, or her manager.
04:27Sex sells.
04:28Sex has always sold."
04:30Needless to say, Grande, who is very vocal about being in charge of her own sexuality,
04:35was not impressed.
04:36The pop star clapped back with a not-so-subtle tweet, which she later covered up with a photo
04:40of Midler.
04:41Bette was always a feminist who stood for women being able to do whatever the F they
04:45wanted without judgment.
04:47Not sure where that Bette went.
04:49For her part, Midler pretty much just laughed it off.
04:52As the lead singer for The Cab, Alex DeLeon has only met Grande once, but apparently once
04:58was enough.
04:59He kept his dislike for the pop star short, not-so-sweet, and to the point in a tweet.
05:03"...hope none of my fans ever have the displeasure of meeting Ariana Grande.
05:08Most stuck-up, disrespectful person I've ever met in this industry."
05:11Wow, tell us how you really feel.
05:14After Grande's 2014 appearance on Saturday Night Live, which, of course, involved her
05:19infamous cat ears, Chrissy Teigen descended from her throne to bestow on us the following,
05:24"...I love your cat ear headband.
05:26It alerts me to immediately hate you."
05:28The Big Bang Theory star Mayim Bialik was introduced to Grande through the singer's
05:32billboards and, well, she wasn't impressed.
05:35Bialik wrote a blog post saying,
05:37"...no idea who she is or what she does.
05:39Based on the billboard, she sells lingerie.
05:42Or stiletto heels.
05:43Or plastic surgery.
05:45Yikes.
05:46Even people who don't know who Grande is can't stand her."
05:49Beyoncé may have millions of fans around the world, but she also has her fair share
05:53of haters.
05:54In 2012, talk show host Wendy Williams took issue with the way Beyoncé spoke during a
05:58preview for her HBO documentary, Life Is But a Dream.
06:02She said, quote,
06:03I'm going to be watching this documentary because fortunately one of the TVs in our
06:06kitchen has closed captioning, so I'll be able to understand what she says."
06:10The insults continued, amid gasps from her audience.
06:13Quote,
06:14"...you know Beyoncé can't talk.
06:15Beyoncé sounds like she has a fifth-grade education.
06:18She can't talk."
06:19Williams continued to claim that she was a fan of Beyoncé, but yeah, it doesn't sound
06:23like much of a fan to us.
06:25Beyoncé earned arguably the best reviews of her movie career playing legendary singer
06:29Etta James in the 2008 flick Cadillac Records.
06:33She even attended the Los Angeles premiere of the movie with James, suggesting that the
06:36two of them were on good terms.
06:38Apparently, that wasn't the case.
06:40In fact, during a 2009 concert, James, who died in 2012, trashed Beyoncé, mainly singing
06:46for James' hit song, At Last, at President Barack Obama's 2009 Inaugural Ball.
06:52James also said to a stunned crowd, quote,
06:53"...I can't stand Beyoncé.
06:55She has no business up there, singing up there on a big ol' President Day, gonna be singing
06:59my song that I've been singing forever."
07:02Singer Kid Rock got in big trouble with Beyoncé's fans after he trashed the singer's music in
07:06a 2015 interview with Rolling Stone.
07:09He said, quote,
07:10"...how can you be that big without at least one Sweet Home Alabama or old-time rock and
07:15roll?"
07:16Beyoncé's fans have responded by swarming Kid Rock's Instagram account with thousands
07:19upon thousands of Bumblebee emoticons.
07:22The swarm eventually got so bad, Kid Rock was forced to retaliate by posting a picture
07:27of insect killer Raid.
07:29Former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani took major issue with Beyoncé's 2016 Super Bowl halftime
07:34performance, which drew reference from the Black Panthers, Malcolm X, and the Black Lives
07:39Matter movement.
07:40Giuliani told Fox & Friends the next day, quote,
07:42"...this is football, not Hollywood.
07:45I thought it was really outrageous that she used it as a platform to attack police officers,
07:49who are the people who protect her and protect us, and keep us alive."
07:53Giuliani went on to argue that the Super Bowl is for middle America, and that the NFL should
07:57be providing, quote,
07:58"...decent, wholesome entertainment to that audience, and not political messages."
08:03Speaking of Beyoncé political figures in the Super Bowl, Donald Trump took a number
08:07of jabs at Beyoncé over her first performance at the Super Bowl halftime show in 2013.
08:12Appearing on The Howard Stern Show, the Donald completely dissed the performance, which had
08:16otherwise received rave reviews, calling it, quote,
08:19"...ridiculous," and, quote,
08:20"...inappropriate."
08:21He said, quote,
08:22"...when Beyoncé was thrusting her hips forward in a very suggestive manner, if someone else
08:26would have done that, it would have been a national scandal."
08:29From collaborators, to exes, to literally anyone who mentions her name, almost no one
08:34is safe from the wrath of the queen.
08:36But not everybody takes it lying down.
08:38These are the celebs who can't stand Nicki Minaj.
08:41In December 2017, Cardi B and Nicki Minaj both appeared in the video for Migos' hit
08:46single, Motorsport, which subsequently led to boatloads of drama.
08:50In an interview with Capital Extra, Cardi B said Minaj altered her verse before the song's
08:54release.
08:55I heard the track, her verse was in Finnish, or it's not the verse that it's on right now."
09:03Minaj responded to the claim in a Beats 1 interview, claiming that Cardi B and Kiari
09:08Offset-Cefus, a member of Migos, simply weren't playing fair.
09:11They'll allow people to run with the lie because it's entertaining to make Nicki seem like
09:18a bad guy, and it's sad."
09:21It gets worse.
09:22In September 2018, Minaj and Cardi B got into a very public physical altercation at Harper's
09:27Bazaar annual Icons party.
09:30Cardi reportedly left the party missing a shoe and sporting a huge bump over her eye
09:34that was roughly the size of a golf ball.
09:36Shortly after the fight, Cardi took to Instagram to accuse Minaj of bad-mouthing her baby.
09:41When you mention my child, all bets are f----- off.
09:44Meanwhile, Minaj denied any wrongdoing on her Queen radio show.
09:48I would never talk about anyone's child or parenting.
09:52I don't care about anyone's parenting.
09:55In a July 2015 tweet, Nicki Minaj took issue with the 2015 MTV Music Video Awards nomination
10:01for Video of the Year, writing,
10:02"'If your video celebrates women with very slim bodies, you will be nominated for Vid
10:07of the Year.'"
10:08Minaj was clearly alluding to the fact that the racy video for her hit single, Anaconda,
10:12hadn't been nominated.
10:13At the time, Taylor Swift was riding high on the success of her 1989 album, and she
10:17evidently took Minaj's comments as a diss.
10:20In a now-deleted tweet, Swift wrote,
10:22"'I've done nothing but love and support you.
10:24It's unlike you to pit women against each other.
10:26Maybe one of the men took your slot.'"
10:28It didn't take long for Minaj to respond,
10:30"'Huh?
10:31You must not be reading my tweets.
10:32Didn't say a word about you.
10:34I love you just as much, but you should speak on this.'"
10:36Talking to Good Morning America shortly after the back-and-forth, Minaj suggested the beef
10:40was squashed.
10:41So she was, you know, super, super sweet, and she apologized.
10:44The ladies even teamed up for a duet at the awards ceremony to show solidarity with one
10:49another.
10:50But that solidarity didn't last too long, because Minaj later did a guest vocal on Swish
10:54Swish, Katy Perry's attempt at a diss track, against Swift.
10:58And when Swift dropped Look What You Made Me Do in August 2017, Minaj tweeted a particular
11:03Kendrick Lamar lyric that read, in part,
11:05"'Sit down, be humble.'"
11:06Many fans perceived this as yet another dig at Swift.
11:10Miley Cyrus used to be a big Nicki Minaj fan.
11:12She even dressed up as the Monster rapper for Halloween in 2012, and Minaj absolutely
11:17loved the costume, gushing to USA Today,
11:19"'She is the best Nicki Minaj impersonator I've seen in my life.
11:22She's adorable.'"
11:23Unfortunately, this two-person mutual adoration society didn't last for long.
11:28After Minaj and Taylor Swift had their little Twitter scuffle, Cyrus gave her two cents
11:32to The New York Times, saying,
11:33"'What I read sounded very Nicki Minaj, which, if you know Nicki Minaj, is not too kind.
11:38It's not very polite.'"
11:40"'Every moment, oh, excuse me, the music will cut me off if I, can I make, oh, darling,
11:44darling, may I express this to you?'
11:46Sure, Nicki Minaj and Mariah Carey collaborated on the underrated breakup song, Up Outta My
11:51Face, in January 2010, but when they worked together again on American Idol in 2012, they
11:56were reportedly at each other's throats.
11:58"'Let me get off the couch.
12:01Nicki's mad, she's walking out.
12:03That was my move, I was gonna do that the next time she walked in on me.'"
12:07Some backstage brawl allegedly involved Minaj berating Carey and threatening to, quote,
12:11knock her teeth out.
12:12Minaj reportedly also said,
12:14"'If I had a gun, I would shoot her.'"
12:16Multiple sources confirmed the gun remark, including Mariah Carey, who told Barbara Walters,
12:20"'It felt like an unsafe work environment.
12:24Anytime anybody's reeling threats at somebody.'"
12:27Carey said that Minaj's alleged outburst was, quote, not appropriate, especially since she
12:32was on the road with two babies.
12:34"'I'm not gonna take any chances, so yeah, I did hire more security.'"
12:37Minaj denied ever threatening Carey in a tweet, writing,
12:40"'Let's just say Nicki said something about a gun.
12:42People will believe it cuz she's a black rapper.'"
12:44In a subsequent 2015 radio interview, Carey was asked if she'd ever come back to American
12:49Idol.
12:50"'Hell no.
12:51Absolutely not.
12:52That was the worst experience of my life.'"
12:53Well, we can't imagine why that might be.
12:55"'I wanna lose three pounds.'
12:56"'I know how you can.'"
12:57"'It's a quote from Mean Girls.
12:58If you knew Mean Girls, you would know.'
12:59"'I do know Mean Girls.'
13:00"'It's a quote from Mean Girls.
13:01If you knew Mean Girls, you would know.'
13:02''I do know Mean Girls.''
13:03For decades, Lil' Kim went by Queen B after her late boyfriend Biggie Smalls gave her
13:08the nickname.
13:09But Nicki Minaj later took the Queen moniker for herself, which didn't make Kim very happy.
13:13During a 2018 interview with Los Angeles radio station Real 92.3, Lil' Kim said,
13:19"'I was named that.
13:20I never named myself that.
13:21It's a difference.
13:22When the streets named you that, Biggie named me that, I didn't name myself.'"
13:27Lil' Kim was asked what started her beef with Minaj in a 2012 interview with Power 105's
13:32The Breakfast Club.
13:33"'I never had a problem with her.
13:34I was always nice with her.
13:36Always.
13:37She was a very obnoxious person, but I was always nice with her.'"
13:41She went on to claim Minaj copied her sound, talked smack behind her back, and, quote,
13:46wanted to be the only female rapper in the game.
13:48The feud was still simmering in June 2018, when Kim told Entertainment Tonight she didn't
13:53know Minaj, all while praising Cardi B.
13:55"'What do you make of Cardi B and Nicki Minaj?'
13:57"'You know, Cardi is my girl.
13:58I don't know the other one, but Cardi is my girl, and so I'm so excited for my girl, Cardi.'"
14:04Finally, by August 2018, Kim sounded ready to let the beef die, telling Real 92.3,
14:10"'God bless her.
14:11What she did, she did.
14:12But you know what?
14:13God bless her.
14:14I wish her the best.
14:15I'm past that.
14:16I'm over it.'"
14:18In a 2015 diss track called Lifeline, Nicki Minaj's ex, Safaree Samuels, claims he ghost-wrote
14:23several of Minaj's lyrics on the Pinkprint.
14:26Then in 2018, he turned around and denied he ghost-written anything.
14:29This inspired Minaj to go off on him in an interview with Hot 97.
14:32"'Now years later you wanna come back and say, oh, by the way, I lied.
14:36Years later after you've tried to tarnish my image.'"
14:38In response to that interview, Samuels tweeted,
14:41"'That looks like someone who either still cares or just holding onto a lot of hate towards
14:45someone.'
14:46That's when all hell broke loose."
14:47Minaj accused Safaree of stealing from her, tweeting,
14:49"'You stole my card and told me you thought it was an account with free money that I didn't
14:53know about.'
14:54Um, then Safaree responded with a tweet accusing Minaj of stabbing him.
14:57"'Remember the night you cut me and I almost died?
15:00The police and ambulance had to take me out the crib on a stretcher and I had to lie and
15:03tell them I was trying to kill myself so they wouldn't take you to jail?''
15:07Minaj never actually denied cutting Samuels, opting instead to change the subject to hair
15:11restoration.
15:13When Travis Scott's album Astroworld dropped a week and 12 hours before Nicki Minaj's record
15:17Queen, it blocked her from having a number one debut.
15:20Minaj was furious.
15:21She even pointed the finger at Scott's wife, Kylie Jenner, and their baby, Stormi Webster,
15:26for promoting the album, tweeting,
15:27"'I put my blood, sweat, and tears in writing a dope album only for Travis Scott to have
15:32Kylie Jenner post a tour pass telling people to come see her and Stormi.'"
15:35After all Minaj's ranting, TMZ reported that Scott and Jenner had their seats moved away
15:40from Minaj at the MTV Video Music Awards.
15:43In fact, video footage even reportedly showed Jenner pivoting away from Minaj on the red
15:48carpet.
15:49Awkward.
15:50Mariah Carey is a polarizing figure
15:52No one can deny her talent, but not everyone is a fan of her super-diva persona.
15:58These stars all have beef with the self-proclaimed elusive chanteuse.
16:03Carey's allegedly controlling ex-husband, Tommy Mottola, was accused of sabotaging her
16:07after their divorce.
16:09In Jennifer Lopez's second album, J.Lo, her track, I'm Real, samples the classic disco
16:14song Firecracker by Yellow Magic Orchestra, a song which Carey had planned to sample for
16:18her song Loverboy, the lead single from her 2001 soundtrack to Glitter.
16:23Carey had to scrap it and use a different sample for the song, which ended up not being
16:27a hit.
16:28Carey was able to use the sample Shadiness to get out of her Sony contract and away from
16:32the seemingly vindictive Mottola for good.
16:35But her relationship with J.Lo was forever strained by the incident.
16:39She later appeared on a foreign TV show, and when asked how she feels about Lopez, she
16:43replied, quote, "'I don't know her.'"
16:46And immediately launched a thousand memes.
16:48"'I know she…
16:49You know what?
16:50I'm very forgetful.'"
16:51Lopez has denied that the two had any conflict, even after being busted texting during Mariah's
16:56performance at the Billboard Music Awards.
16:59But Carey has stuck to her story that the two just aren't friends.
17:03Outspoken singer Demi Lovato didn't think twice about voicing her real opinion of Mariah
17:07Carey, even when no one actually asked her about it directly.
17:11In June 2016, a fan posted a meme of Carey alongside Ariana Grande that read,
17:16"'When you order it online vs. when it arrives.'"
17:19And Lovato commented,
17:20"'You got it the wrong way around, honey.
17:22Mariah is a legend and so talented but constantly disses people.
17:26It's nasty the way she treats Jennifer.
17:29Jen keeps it classy but I'm not afraid to say s***.
17:32The woman is mean for no reason.'"
17:34Carey didn't take kindly to the comments, offering her usual shade when her name came
17:38up.
17:39"'I don't know her either and so I wouldn't say anything to her and she should come up,
17:43say here's my opinion, what do you think about it?
17:46That's how you handle s***.'"
17:48After Carey rejected Eminem in the early 2000s — or just denied dating him, depending on
17:53who you ask — he apparently got really upset.
17:56He started fairly diplomatically, telling Rolling Stone in 2002,
18:00Quote,
18:01"'I just don't like her as a person.'"
18:02Carey responded by shading him during her tour in 2003 with a marionette in his likeness.
18:08Then he got really mad, playing voicemails allegedly from Carey during his own tour in
18:132005.
18:14In 2006, he told Shade 45 that he and Carey dated for six or seven months and claimed
18:20that her denial that anything happened between them bothered him.
18:23He then spoke of her in very vulgar terms on his 2006 song, Jimmy Crack Corn, then again
18:29on Bagpipes from Baghdad in 2009.
18:32Carey retaliated with her Obsessed video the same year, and then he flipped out again,
18:37releasing another vulgar track, The Warning, in 2010.
18:40Ultimately, Carey got the last laugh, though.
18:42"'Say three nice things about Eminem.'"
18:45"'They come in a package that you can carry wherever you go, that everybody loves.'"
18:51When she attempted to shade the Shade Queen in 2006, Christina Aguilera met her match.
18:56Aguilera told GQ,
18:59"'One time, we were at a party and I think she got really drunk, and she had just really
19:03derogatory things to say to me.
19:05But it was at that time that she had had that breakdown, so she might have been very medicated.'"
19:09That didn't end well for Aguilera, because Carey's subsequent shade pretty much owned
19:13her.
19:14She told Access Hollywood,
19:15"'I had hoped that Christina was in a better place now than the last time I saw her, when
19:20she showed up uninvited at one of my parties and displayed questionable behavior.
19:24It is sad yet predictable that she would use my name at this time to reinvent past
19:28incidents for her promotional gain.
19:30It is in my heart to forgive and I will keep her in my prayers.'"
19:33Miley Cyrus told Elle magazine,
19:40"'I've never really been a fan, because it's so much about Mariah Carey.
19:44That's part of her shtick.
19:45I can see through that.'"
19:47Miley caught immediate flack from all over for her words.
19:50"'I mean, we all know that Mariah could sing you under the table.'"
19:54As for Mariah, though, well, she just went back to her signature brand of dis-and-dismiss
19:59when the subject of the Hannah Montana star came up.
20:02"'What about Miley Cyrus?'
20:03"'Uh, I think we met in a bathroom once, I don't know, I don't know.'"
20:07Madonna was once quoted back in the 1990s as saying Carey is,
20:11"'not particularly bright,' and reportedly said she'd,
20:14"'rather kill herself than be the one sweet day songbird.'"
20:18Carey responded with the same passive-aggressiveness that has marked so many of her feuds so far.
20:23"'I really haven't paid attention to Madonna since I was in like seventh or eighth grade
20:26and she used to be popular, so I didn't know that.'"
20:30On her Sirius XM radio show, Jenny McCarthy went on the offensive after Carey's disastrous
20:35New Year's Rockin' Eve performance.
20:38At first, she started out sympathetic to Carey, but got defensive of Dick Clark Productions,
20:42which Carey's manager accused of sabotage after the performance.
20:46"'Dick Clark Productions has been doing this show for 45 years.
20:50For her to defame them was so incredibly insulting.'"
20:55McCarthy, who'd co-hosted the event for several years, said that Mariah simply didn't prepare
20:59for the performance with rehearsals, and even declared that Carey's voice just, quote,
21:04"'is not there anymore' for these type of live performances."
21:09Jennifer Lopez seems to have just as much saying power as her diva reputation, and although
21:14much of the bad press comes from tabloid speculation, some of her celebrity cohorts
21:18might actually agree with those unflattering rumors.
21:22These celebs have had it up to here with Jenny from the block.
21:26Nicki Minaj and Lopez first exchanged jabs in 2012 on American Idol when Minaj performed
21:32and Lopez was a judge.
21:34After the rapper finished her set, she asked,
21:36"'I was hoping maybe I could come back and be a guest judge.
21:39JLo, can you scoot over a little bit?'
21:42Things got even icier when Lopez quipped back,
21:45"'I don't know if there's enough room for both of us.'"
21:48Fast forward to 2015, and things between the two didn't seem to be any better.
21:54When Lopez opened the American Music Awards with a medley of songs that included an excerpt
21:58from Nicki Minaj's Anaconda, Minaj looked like she wasn't having it.
22:03But when a fan tweeted the clip and proclaimed,
22:06"'Damn JLo, Nicki Minaj facial expression says it all,' Minaj fired back, saying,
22:12"'LOL, says what all?
22:14I'm looking at my own face on the screen when I'm looking to the right, I turn back and
22:18look at her.'"
22:19"'I wanna say, but it would be so real that I can't.'"
22:24Almost as soon as Lopez shared a snap of herself chilling with Drake backstage at her Vegas
22:29show in 2016, rumors flew that the two were dating.
22:32And Lopez sure didn't help matters when she then posted a pic of the rapper giving her
22:37a cozy bear hug.
22:39"'You know, it's one of those things that it's a maybe one day, maybe not.'"
22:45While some didn't believe the hype, Drake's sometimes love interest Rihanna sure seemed
22:49to take the post to heart.
22:52An unnamed insider told In Touch she felt like she had suffered what she called the
22:56ultimate betrayal, calling Lopez, quote, "'desperate.'"
23:00Although Rihanna never publicly addressed the issue, she threw some major shade when,
23:04in 2016, she unfollowed Lopez on Instagram.
23:09Despite both being Puerto Rican-American dancers who grew up in New York, according to Rosie
23:14Perez's 2014 memoir, Handbook for an Unpredictable Life, the ladies sure don't get along.
23:21Perez recalled their time working on In Living Color, saying,
23:24"'All of the girls were coming into my office complaining how Lopez was manipulating wardrobe,
23:29makeup, and me all to her advantage.'"
23:32"'Hahaha, I'll never tell, I'll never tell.'"
23:38Although Lopez left the show after just two seasons, Perez accused the star of keeping
23:42their feud alive long after they parted ways.
23:45Once when they crossed paths in a Hollywood club, Perez wrote,
23:49"'Lopez came over to me smiling, saying hello as if nothing had happened.
23:53I should have let it go, played it off, too.
23:56Instead, I killed her with my biting tongue.'"
23:58"'But we don't see each other, and that's okay, too.
24:01We're two grown adults that have moved on.'"
24:04Lopez and Jenna Dewan seemed to get along just fine when they both appeared on NBC's
24:08World of Dance.
24:09The two dancers never showed any signs of animosity on camera, but according to OK!
24:14Magazine, the vibe was very different behind the scenes.
24:17"'It's a battle.
24:18We gotta bring it.
24:19You can't bring it to a battle.'"
24:21A source told the outlet,
24:23"'Jenna can't stand Jen's over-the-top theatrical fakery.
24:27Jenna never fails to ham it up when the cameras are rolling, and she hijacks the show.
24:31Every situation, even off-camera, is micromanaged by J-Lo, and Jenna feels very excluded.'"
24:38But the alleged feud may need to be taken with a big grain of salt.
24:42Gossip Cop reportedly reached out to a show producer as well as Dewan's rep and was told
24:47that the reports of a beef were absolutely not true.
24:51"'Where you going, snacks?
24:54Anybody?'
24:56Demi Lovato is all about that honesty.
24:58But the problem with Lovato's signature candor is that while it has earned her millions of
25:02devoted fans, it's also made her quite a few high-profile enemies along the way.
25:07These are the stars who aren't picking up what Lovato's putting down.
25:11Lovato has had an on-again, off-again beef with Taylor Swift since 2010.
25:15She's shaded the Bad Blood singer numerous times, most famously in February 2016 when
25:20she slammed Swift's $250,000 donation to Kesha.
25:24Lovato tweeted,
25:25"'Not everyone has $250K to just give to people.
25:28I'm just tired of seeing women use women empowerment and feminism to further brands without actually
25:33being the ones that have the uncomfortable conversations.'"
25:36By November 2016, Lovato was still salty about Swift, telling Glamour,
25:40"'I think that having a song and a video about tearing Katy Perry down, that's not women's
25:44empowerment.'"
25:45As for Swift, she's reportedly not a fan.
25:48A source close to Swift told E! News,
25:50"...Swift thought it was unnecessary for Lovato to make those comments.
25:53They both have never been really good friends."
25:55Moschino
25:56Lovato and Nicki Minaj were both Moschino designer Jeremy Scott's guests at the 2016
26:01Met Gala.
26:02But when Minaj posted a pic with Lovato and Scott but only tagged Scott, Lovato then lashed
26:06out, posting,
26:07"...when you aren't mentioned in a post but didn't do s**t to the person."
26:10In 2018, Lovato told Billboard of the 2016 gala,
26:14"...this one celebrity was a complete b**ch and was miserable to be around.
26:18I remember being so uncomfortable that I wanted to drink.
26:20I changed my clothes, but I saw my diamonds on, millions of dollars of diamonds at an
26:25AA meeting."
26:26Halsey
26:27Lovato, who identifies as sexually fluid, briefly beefed with openly bisexual singer
26:31Halsey.
26:32In June 2017, Halsey told Paper magazine,
26:35"...I don't like that bisexuality is seen as a taboo.
26:38Don't tell your mom or we shouldn't do this or this feels so wrong but it's so right."
26:42Many rightfully interpreted it as a reference to Lovato's hit 2015 song, Cool for the Summer,
26:47in which she sings about lusting after another girl and includes the lyric,
26:51"...don't tell your mother."
26:52Lovato responded,
26:53"...you know a song is a hit when people are still talking about the lyrics two years later."
26:57Halsey then tweeted and deleted a series of missives directed at Lovato, including one
27:01that read,
27:02"...thanks for the text back that everything is good and you know what I meant, but keep
27:05letting the press drag me in your benefit."
27:07The pair seem to have since burrowed the hatchet by the end of July 2017.
27:12Lovato beefed with fellow Disney darling Zendaya way back in 2013.
27:16M magazine reported that Lovato criticized Disney for airing an eating disorder joke
27:21in an episode of Zendaya's then-show on the network, Shake It Up.
27:24She tweeted,
27:25"...is it just me or are the actresses getting thinner and thinner?
27:27I miss the days of Raven and Lizzie McGuire."
27:30Dear Disney Channel, eating disorders are not something to joke about.
27:33Zendaya didn't comment, but her father tweeted,
27:36"...Demi Lovato, my daughter looks up to you and admires you greatly.
27:39What Disney said is one thing but when you commented on her body type you did exactly
27:43what they did."
27:44Lovato then apologized, but it wasn't the first time she slighted Zendaya to promote
27:48her own idea of body positivity.
27:50In 2015, when Zendaya was honored with her very own Barbie doll, instead of congratulating
27:55her, Lovato tweeted,
27:56"...hey Barbie, what about a curvy doll or one with true-to-size measurements?
28:00Our model?"
28:01Barbie has since launched a body-positive line, but so far, none of them have a thing
28:04for Twitter rants.
28:06Perez Hilton lashed out at Lovato in a July 2016 Twitter spree, writing,
28:11"...I'm nice to the people I feel deserve me being nice to.
28:14I'm done being fake with Demi Lovato."
28:16He then posted screencaps of a conversation in which Lovato told him to quit liking mean
28:20tweets about her beef with Mariah Carey.
28:23In response, Hilton called her a hypocrite for liking mean tweets about Taylor Swift.
28:27Hilton was later seen at one of Lovato's March 2018 concerts, and the singer later tweeted
28:32of the show,
28:33Later that night, I got to sing Sorry Not Sorry directly to one of the USA's Most Notorious
28:37Bullies.
28:38It felt so f-----g great."
28:39Hilton responded with a petty video calling Lovato a bully and moaning,
28:43"...Demi Lovato has a lot of issues.
28:47She's not Taylor Swift.
28:48She's not Selena Gomez.
28:49It must not be easy for her."
28:52Kathy Griffin's beef with Lovato seemed to begin in 2014, when she tweeted that Debbie
28:56Lovato was the biggest douche celebrity she'd ever met.
29:00Lovato then tweeted and deleted a selfie she'd taken while making a grossed-out face
29:03with Griffin in the background, writing,
29:05"...Only a douche to people I can't stand."
29:07Three years later, when Griffin came under fire for a controversial Trump-themed photo
29:11shoot, Lovato had the last laugh at the comedian's expense.
29:15After Griffin's sobbing press conference about the pictorial, Lovato tweeted,
29:19"...I find it funny when bullies play the victim.
29:21Oops, I spilled my tea."
29:22Lady Gaga
29:23Lady Gaga has millions of little monsters around the world, but celebrities on this
29:28list probably aren't in their ranks.
29:30Here are stars who can't stand Mother Monster.
29:33Lady Gaga was accused of copying the Queen of Pop for much of her career, but Madonna
29:37never actually commented on it until a 2020 interview in January 2012.
29:42When asked specifically about Gaga's song, Born This Way, which is often compared to
29:46Madonna's Express Yourself, Madonna decided to reveal how she really felt, tea and all.
29:51"...It feels, uh, reductive.
29:55Is that good?
29:57Look it up."
30:00Madonna kept quiet until February 2015, when she sassed to Rolling Stone,
30:04"...The only time I ever criticized Lady Gaga was when I felt like she blatantly ripped
30:07off one of my songs.
30:09It was just that one issue.
30:11And everybody's obviously run with it and turned it into a huge feud, which I think
30:15is really boring.
30:16I don't care anymore."
30:18Lady Gaga and Christina Aguilera get along beautifully now and even collaborated on a
30:22remix of Gaga's song, Do What You Want, but they had a pretty vicious history thanks to
30:26their respective teams.
30:28Aguilera seemed to start the beef, telling the Los Angeles Times in November 2008,
30:32"...This person, Lady Gaga, was just brought to my attention not too long ago.
30:36I'm not quite sure who this person is, to be honest.
30:39I don't know if it is a man or a woman, I just wasn't sure."
30:42Uh, rude.
30:43A month later, Gaga reportedly responded to Aguilera's comments by saying,
30:47"...Well, it was very flattering when it happened.
30:49A lot of people in America didn't know who I was until that whole thing happened.
30:53It really put me on the map in a way."
30:55Well, that's one way to look at it.
30:57In the beginning of Gaga's career, Perez Hilton was one of her biggest champions.
31:01But the celebrity blogger changed his tune a few years later, telling an Australian TV
31:05show in June 2014 that the catalyst was a 2011 interview gone awry.
31:10Hilton claimed a question he asked Gaga about her then-boyfriend set the songstress off,
31:14saying,
31:15"...The fact that I even brought up that she had a boyfriend made her livid and she stormed
31:21off the set and stopped the interview."
31:24Gaga's interpretation was pretty different, though the timeline matched up in terms of
31:28the ill-fated 2011 interview.
31:30The Born This Way singer told Howard Stern in a November 2013 interview,
31:34"...He started asking me really terrible questions and he was being very negative about Born
31:39This Way and we had a lot to drink.
31:41He was supposed to be my friend and I felt betrayed so I started crying.
31:45He's just mad that I don't want to hang out anymore because I don't want to be around
31:48fake people."
31:49Azalea Banks
31:50Lady Gaga was slated to collaborate with rapper Azalea Banks on a track called Red Flame for
31:55Artpop, but the song was never officially released and didn't make the album.
31:59Banks then accused Gaga of stealing the track, even though Mother Monster never actually
32:03released it.
32:04The Chasing Time rapper also went as far to accuse Gaga of copying mermaid aesthetics
32:08from her and alleged that the title of her third studio album, Artpop, was stolen from
32:13her own self-proclaimed genre name, Witch Hop.
32:16Gaga never responded directly to Banks, but did tell fans in 2013, she has a bad attitude.
32:21Not to be outdone, Banks mocked Gaga for supporting Hillary Clinton in the 2016 election.
32:27In June 2010, Lady Gaga caused a stir when she sat in Jerry Seinfeld's box at a New York
32:32Mets game wearing only a bra, cheeky shorts, and raised her middle finger at the crowd.
32:36Unsurprisingly, Seinfeld wasn't at all impressed with Gaga's antics.
32:40The funnyman later said,
32:41I'm not one of these all-publicity-is-good people.
32:44I don't understand how this is good for her, but I'm sure she understands her milieu better
32:49than I ever could."
32:50The comedian continued by lamenting stardom and publicity in the 21st century, saying,
32:55"...I don't know what these young people think or how they promote their careers.
32:59Wake me when it's over.
33:00Get an act.
33:01Rhinestone bikinis and giving people the finger.
33:04She is talented.
33:05I don't know why she's doing this stuff."
33:08Lady Gaga has used her platform to open up about her experience with sexual assault in
33:12an effort to encourage and inspire fellow survivors, even though it hasn't always been
33:16easy for her to do so.
33:17I suffer from PTSD.
33:20I've never told anyone that before, so here we are."
33:23However, in December 2016, Piers Morgan took to Twitter to attack Lady Gaga's claims that
33:27she suffers from post-traumatic stress disorder as a result of her experience.
33:31The host tweeted,
33:32"...Lady Gaga and Madonna have both made allegations of rape many years after the event.
33:37No police complaint.
33:38No charges.
33:39No court case.
33:40I fear sexual assault has become the latest celebrity accessory.
33:43I wouldn't automatically believe anything either Madonna or Lady Gaga claimed about their lives."
33:48Gaga replied,
33:49"...If anyone in your family suffers from PTSD, I pray they have more good days than bad.
33:55It has affected me and my whole family.
33:57I would also love to talk to you about PTSD.
33:59It's not just a military disorder.
34:01There is a mental health youth epidemic."
34:03Morgan responded, claiming that because he comes from a big military family, he gets
34:07angry when he feels a celebrity is using PTSD to promote themselves.
34:12The pair then agreed to have a sit-down interview, to which Morgan said,
34:14"...I'll press my meat suit."
34:16Gaga clapped back,
34:17"...If you continue to shame me in the process of kindly agreeing to interview with you,
34:21I'll happily do the interview with someone else."
34:23Of course, the interview has yet to happen as of the making of this video.
