The Most Petty Actors in the Industry: Feuds, Fights, and Fiat Shaming

Introduction:

From voiceovers in Cars to action stalwarts Tom Cruise and Richard Lewis, the entertainment industry is no stranger to feuds and petty behaviors. In this article, we dive into the most notable instances of pettiness among actors, highlighting their social media shenanigans and other noteworthy incidents. Let's see who takes the crown as the most petty in the industry.

Lori and the Most Petty Resume

The case of Lori, known for her Revenge of the Friends film, is a prime example of pettiness in the industry. While Tom Cruise, Richard Lewis, and Steven Seagal have certainly made their fair share of gaffes, Lori’s resume and longevity in the industry make her stand out. Her continued presence in the public eye further cements her status as one of the most pettily fulfilled actors in Hollywood.

The Outlandish Egos of Steven Seagal and Kirk Cameron

Two other notable figures in the realm of pettiness are Steven Seagal and Kirk Cameron.

Steven Seagal-- Known for his thinly veiled ego and outlandish sense of self, Seagal is infamous for his disastrous appearance on Saturday Night Live. During rehearsals, he got so angry at the fictional characters for suggesting that Arnold Schwarzenegger could beat him up that he stormed out. Moreover, he believed his background in martial arts made him funnier than the world’s best comedy writers, leading to countless disputes and disputes over ideas and sketches. Kirk Cameron-- Cameron is a close second on the list of pettiness. In an instance where his character was supposed to appear unclothed (as simple as that) in a school play, he forced a rewrite to ensure his character coverage remained intact. He even resorted to social media, writing the infamous post: “Help me storm the gates of Rotten Tomatoes,” hoping to sway audience opinions post-hoc. These incidents showcase a pattern of behavior that goes beyond mere public blundering into full-fledged, self-serving pettiness.

Shady Moments on Social Media

Hot on the heels of Lori, Seagal, and Cameron, there’s a long list of A-listers who aren’t afraid to go after each other and show their petulance in the spotlight. These include Rihanna, P. Diddy, and Kim Kardashian, each leaving their mark with social media dramas that have unsettled the industry. Let’s take a look at some notable examples.

Rihanna: The Fenty Beauty Feud

Rihanna’s rapid rise in the beauty world has not only turned heads but also raised hackles. While most of us are still in awe of the extensive shade offerings of her Fenty Beauty line, there’s a darker side to her success. In 2017, Makeup Forever attempted to challenge the singer's growing clout by criticizing her company’s business model. Makeup Forever’s tweet read:

When will people learn don't come for Rihanna. Seriously—just don't.

This tweet felt like a direct shot at Rihanna, fueling the already heated debate about her business practices and brand influence. The incident highlights the pettiness that can arise from the cutthroat nature of the beauty industry.

P. Diddy's Edits and Ontological Goals

In 2017, P. Diddy made waves on social media for a very different reason. During the Met Gala, P. Diddy and Kendall Jenner, along with other celebrities, were snapped together in a photo. However, when P. Diddy posted the same photo on Instagram, he carefully edited it to remove only Kendall Jenner and Kylie Jenner. This move raised eyebrows and sparked debates about whether he was intentionally leaving out the Jenner sisters to only include other celebrities.

The incident is a textbook case of pettiness and fecal shaming, as P. Diddy used social media to show favoritism by selectively editing a photo to promote his "ideal" group of friends.

Kim Kardashian's Twitter Incidents

Kim Kardashian has been a master of both controversy and social media pettiness. Her 2016 storming of the Twitterverse was emblematic of her willingness to go viral at any cost. Specifically, she engaged in a highly publicized feud with Taylor Swift, alleging that Swift intended to harm her husband, Kanye West, and his influence. The allegations, though later found to be unfounded, caused a widespread Twitterstorm, drastically impacting both Swift and Kardashian’s public image.

Kim’s adept use of social media has made her a poster child for pettiness and public feuds. From posting receipts to back up her claims to creating viral moments out of personal grievances, she exemplifies the pettiness that can tear down the fabric of even the most seemingly supportive communities.

Conclusion:

The entertainment industry is replete with examples of pettiness, from the feuds of A-listers to the antics of lesser-known figures. Whether it's through social media stunts or on-screen sniping, the hallmarks of pettiness are all too present. As we continue to navigate the web of industry entanglements and public feuds, it's clear that pettiness is a weapon that is frequently employed, often with devastating effects. So, who do you think takes the crown as the most petty in the industry?
