Do you think celebrities are ever unfairly labeled as douchebags?

(inspired by mel's hate for jeremy piven.)

I think for the most part the truth gets out, and where there's smoke, there's fire.

Sometimes, not everyone can be "on" 24/7. -- nm - lileve Apr 26, 13:56
I think if the bad shit we all did got reverberated across 100 websites, we'd all look douchebags. -- nm - ty97 Apr 26, 13:53 2

- Yeah. I think this is true. (nm) - musubi Apr 26, 13:56
often. everyone has off days and a waiter or fan can spread ugly stories easily on the web. -- nm - zork Apr 26, 13:53

some are - some ain't - Epiphany Apr 26, 13:50
Sometimes, but in this age we live in; there's so much instant vouch/debunk on any one story that it's mitigated - Will Hunting Apr 26, 13:49 1
- rumors spread like electrical fire, millions will hear of it on the 2nd/3rd facebook echo, the retraction not so much, and the bad rep will be picked - zeitgeist Apr 26, 13:52
Sometimes. Sometimes not. - musubi Apr 26, 13:49 1
- agreed -- nm - Epiphany Apr 26, 13:50
It's possible. Imagine if Katherine Heigl were right about the working conditions on Grey's. - David Apr 26, 13:49 9
- She's from New Caanan CT, that's explains it all. -- nm - lileve Apr 26, 14:03 2
  - yes, yes it does. -- nm - Mel Profit Apr 26, 14:11
  - heh -- nm - CQ Apr 26, 14:10
- But then you're still left with her Apatow slams and crap about/to the writers. -- nm - Will Hunting Apr 26, 13:51 5
  - To be fair, she was right about not submtting herself for the Emmys, the writers gave Izzie crap to do that season. -- nm - Ender Apr 26, 13:58 3
    - You...still.don't say it. It's just tacky. -- nm - Will Hunting Apr 26, 13:59 2
      - And can't possibly make the situation any better. nm - Dignan Apr 26, 14:00 1
        
        "How much longer is this bitch's contract? Three years? Yeah, bitch is going down an elevator shaft. Derivative? Oh, she's screwing a ghost." -- nm - Will Hunting Apr 26, 14:01
  - RIght. Heigl's a good example of what appears to be a well earned reputation for divaness. nm - Dignan Apr 26, 13:54
i only think it's unfair when the celebrity actually owns up to their jerkitude (like James Cameron) - mr. irrelevant Apr 26, 13:49
Yeah, to some degree. -- nm - Callisto Apr 26, 13:48
Yes. -- nm - TWuG Apr 26, 13:48 6
- Any examples? nm - Dignan Apr 26, 13:49 5
  - Some of the fan interactions that get reported seem very slanted - Reagen Apr 26, 13:51 4
    - someone could have a migraine or be worried about a sick family member and not smile to someone and blammo they're an asshole. -- nm - zork Apr 26, 13:55
    - I think it's all too easy to talk crap about someone without recourse. - Callisto Apr 26, 13:53 1
      - Read: John Cusack is still dreamy and people need to stop being so mean to him. -- nm - David Apr 26, 14:08
    - I don't think these add up to any kind of solid douchey reputation. - Dignan Apr 26, 13:53
