Kamala Harris Now Wants You in the Weed Business—After Jailing Thousands [WATCH]

In the whimsical world of Hollywood, where reality often takes a backseat to make-believe, Cynthia Erivo’s dramatic reaction to a fan-made Wicked poster is a masterclass in celebrity entitlement. Yes, Erivo found herself “deeply hurt” by an altered version of the official Wicked movie poster—an alteration that, dare I say, was as innocuous as it gets. The fan merely reimagined the movie’s poster to more closely resemble the iconic Broadway version, where Elphaba’s eyes were hidden beneath her signature hat. But Erivo, starring as Elphaba herself deemed this the “wildest, most offensive” thing she’s seen. Really, Cynthia? In a world where fans are often the lifeblood of a celebrity’s career, Erivo’s reaction should serve as a cautionary tale. Celebrities hold immense power and influence, which they often wield without acknowledging the fans who support them. Sure, no one should tolerate genuine harassment or abusive behavior, but equating a simple fan edit to an affront worthy of public shaming? That’s a whole new level of snowflake behavior. Remember when Amandla Stenberg of Star Wars fame dropped a music video dissing critics as racist and sexist? Or Dana Schwartz, She-Hulk writer, who ranted about toxic fan gatekeeping but refused to engage with legitimate critiques? These are just modern examples of celebrities wielding their platforms to shame fans rather than engaging in productive dialogue or, heaven forbid, reflecting on the quality of their work. Erivo’s reaction underscores a growing trend among celebrities to blur the lines between genuine criticism and perceived slights. By choosing to interpret a fan’s creative expression as a personal attack, Erivo not only alienates the very community that has championed Wicked for years but also inadvertently silences creativity within fan circles. It’s baffling how a harmless piece of fan art could elicit such a disproportionate response, especially when there are far more pressing issues in the world. The irony is not lost on us. In an industry that thrives on illusion and performance, it’s absurd that such a minor tweak could shake an actress so deeply. Erivo’s comments likening the altered poster to offensive AI memes and inappropriate questions about her character’s anatomy only highlight the disconnect between Hollywood elites and the average moviegoer. Virtue Signaling in Tinseltown Let’s call this what it is—a classic case of virtue signaling. By elevating her reaction to something as trivial as a fan-made poster, Erivo positions herself as a victim of a toxic fan culture. But is this really about the poster, or is it an opportunity to garner sympathy and reinforce her status as a woke icon? It seems the latter, given the industry’s penchant for rewarding victimhood with applause and validation. Hollywood’s echo chamber has bred a class of celebrities who feed off controversy and position themselves as paragons of virtue while ignoring their own faults. Criticizing their work? You’re toxic. Expecting accountability? You’re a gatekeeper. It’s a tale as old as time—one where the industry elites thrive on virtue signaling rather than substance. What do these public outbursts achieve besides alienating the fanbase? Praising fans for their creativity and enthusiasm could have fostered a stronger bond and encouraged more engagement. Instead, Erivo’s overreaction has led to an inevitable backlash against her and the film. We’ve seen similar instances across various franchises—take Erin Moriarty from The Boys, who accused fans of misogyny when faced with critique, or Michael Chabon, who admitted to writing Star Trek Picard to provoke fans. This pattern of behavior is indicative of a broader cultural issue within Hollywood—one where dissent is stifled, and disagreement is equated with an assault on personal identity. Celebrities like Erivo need to remember that they’re part of an industry built on public support. Rather than scolding fans over imagined slights, why not focus on nurturing the creativity and passion within those communities? After all, without the fans, what is a star but a distant ball of hot gas?The post Wicked Star Cynthia Erivo’s Reaction to a Fan-Made Poster Is Everything Wrong with Celebrity Entitlement first appeared on Worth it or Woke.
