Sometimes it’s easy to forget that celebrities are real people, not just characters on a screen. But just like us, they’re sliding into each other’s DMs with the latest memes or hyping up their friends with heartfelt comments under their posts—even when that post happens to be a glossy magazine cover rather than a casual candid.

That’s why catching a glimpse of these interactions feels both surprising and fascinating. And it explains the popularity of Comments By Celebs, an Instagram account dedicated to collecting the funniest, most viral remarks left by famous stars. Below, you’ll find some of the best gems they’ve shared.

    The best part is that the mother, Portia Moore, was more focused at the time on keeping her kids safe, in particular, making sure the little guy, Preston, didn't run into the water. Her husband, on the other hand, definitely noticed. "That's Obama!" 🤣🤣

    Social media began as a way, just like the name suggests, to be social.

    Back in the early days, getting 10 likes on Instagram felt like a huge achievement, because that was the moment your like count switched from listing out names to just showing numbers.

    It was fun, light-hearted, and a way to keep up with friends by posting silly or interesting snapshots of daily life.

    Celebrities are just as tied to these platforms as the rest of us, sometimes even more so.

    ADVERTISEMENT

    For some, it’s an essential part of their career, a place to promote projects and connect with fans. For others, it’s simply about showing support for their friends or dropping a quick comment.

    And in many cases, they use their massive platforms for good causes.

    Take Selena Gomez, for example. She has encouraged her 417 million followers—yes, that’s more than the entire population of the United States—to donate to the Rare Impact Fund, which helps provide mental health services to those in need.

    Similarly, Ariana Grande has used Instagram to encourage vaccination and even partnered with BetterHelp to give away $1 million in free therapy, reminding fans it’s okay to ask for help. These are moments when social media truly shines.

    Antisemitism is a very ancient and active form of hate in the world, and a holiday celebrating Jewish independence 2200 years ago from Syrian Hellenic Rule, is still triggering to some. But also there is a huge swatch of people who call themselves "pro-Palestine" but are just really antisemitic and using Palestine as a excuse (see Candice Owens, Nick Fuentes, Ana Kasparian, etc) And man studies (see below) show a lot just use it as an excuse to cover up their real hate as well as provide cover for violence. This does not mean all pro-Palestinian people are antisemitic, but the movement is loaded with them, according to polls (https://cpost.uchicago.edu/publications/antisemitism_and_support_for_political_violence/, https://academic.oup.com/jeea/article-abstract/22/5/2329/7613578?redirectedFrom=fulltext&login=false, https://research.gold.ac.uk/id/eprint/28116/1/Hirsh%20Allington%20Antisemitic%20Antizionism.pdf, https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/pdf/10.1177/10659129221111081)

    But there’s another side to it too, the darker, more overwhelming one. Even celebrities, who seem to thrive online, admit the downsides. Selena Gomez told Vogue that being the most followed person on Instagram actually “freaked her out.”

    “It had become so consuming to me. It’s what I woke up to and went to sleep to. I was an addict, and it felt like I was seeing things I didn’t want to see, like it was putting things in my head that I didn’t want to care about,” she said.

    Other stars avoid the spotlight altogether.

    Kristen Stewart keeps a private Instagram just to stay in touch with friends. As she put it: “That’s not social media. We have a shared photo stream.”

    And as for Twitter (now X), she once joked: “What would I tweet about? Who to? What are you saying? Imagine sitting here right now and thinking, ‘That’s a good thing to say to the world?’ I can't even understand it.”

    Daniel Radcliffe takes a similar approach. Despite his worldwide fame, he’s stayed off social media completely.

    “I don’t have Twitter and I don’t have Facebook and I think that makes things a lot easier,” he told Sky News. “If you go on Twitter and tell everybody what you’re doing moment to moment and then claim you want a private life, then no one is going to take that request seriously.”

    At the end of the day, celebrities show us that social media can be both powerful and problematic. It’s a tool that can spread awareness, connect people, and even save lives, but it can also become overwhelming and addictive.

    The lesson? Use it wisely, enjoy it in moderation, and remember: the real world is happening off-screen.

    It’s funny to realise that really really ridiculously good-looking people are *ALSO* shocked when they are able to date other really really ridiculously good-looking people. Also, I apparently have in common with Dylan Sprouse that I cannot believe I have the good luck to be with my wife!

    I absolutely love this dress. But people are allowed to think it's ugly, no need to downvote people for having a different taste than you. And writing a certain dress is ugly, in a place where the person wearing it will never read it, doesn't constitute as rude.

    I got a taxi to the hospital and he nearly missed birth #2 so there wasn't much for him to do! However, it was what he did in the post-partum period that showed what he was made of. He helped me through post-partum depression, saw us through the long, long nights without complaint. Massaged my shoulders when they were sore from breastfeeding and carrying the baby. Helped around the house without being asked.
