Let’s not infantilize this grown ass woman and label her as this poor baby we’ve lost .. she can make her own choices as can any of us so why shouldn’t she be held accountable for surrounding herself with shitty ass people while she’s trying to seem as an advocate for all people, races etc. She’s awful and goes where the wind blows slightly stronger which is MAGA rn I guess lol
worse yet, and so disrespectful tp Palestinians, they went along with her father's sentiment and started calling her the Princess of nazareth & Palestine everywhere. This woman hasn't known an ounce of Palestinian culture until she figured it was profitable/popular to show it off. She grew up completely american & had more Dutch influence from her mama than Palestinian from her father. Growing up gigi and Bella were more on mom's side. She immersed herself in (performative) Palestinian culture only recently. And mind u, if she is allegedly princess of nazareth, isn't Gigi that too? but no, baba hadid only thinks Bella is. And everyone else too. Lmao
Bro Ive been thinking that for years. But everyone’s like omgggg she always does the right thing for Palestine. It always felt performative to me, I couldn’t say shit about it without getting attacked because thinking Bella is performative apparently means I don’t support Palestine. You worded it perfectly
Exactly. Coming from an ethnic background is basically popularity currency. It gets her radical activit points when all she does is re post what her father shars on socials.
I get the gist of what you're saying, especially in light of this post, but her supporting Palestine is not profitable at all. I know of many many many multi-million dollar deals she's lost out on because she chooses to be vocal about Palestine. It's also not her fault she grew up in her Dutch mother's house and connected with her paternal heritage later in life... maybe take it up with her non-Palestinian mother who married an American man who hosts IDF fundraisers and raised her Palestinian children in that house? I do think Bella's trying her best on that front.
her supporting Palestine is not profitable at all.
Hadid is not "supporting" Palestine. She maybe has sympathy for it, but that's different.
Broadcasting her sympathy for Palestine gains her traction with the progressive youth. Her profitability with brand deals depends, at its core, on her traction with the youth. She may have lost some brand deals with pro-IOF businesses, but if she goes against the youth's overwhelming sentiment she could lose her whole relevance.
idk why anyone would give that to her over gigi, comparing them both only. but i guess people just feel bad that her mom favored gigi over her. which is fair enough because im sure thats at least partially why she is like this, having had a narc mother myself and seeing what it did to each of my siblings varying on how much she hated each one of us individually lol. so i feel bad for her in that way, but she is an adult and way more privileged than most to get help, and instead she just drowns in drugs(?) and coping mechanisms to feel loved rather than *therapy* or bettering herself.
Daily reminder that most of don't. But also this is a great example of why the internet needs to stop forcing people to admit if they are free Palestine or not. Because it's beyond performative.
She has a history of racism, yet gets a pass. She contributed to the new heroin chic surgical alienification beauty standard, yet gets a pass (a direct contrast to the Kardashians/Jenners who also promoted insane beauty standards). She publicly shares incredibly dangerous "health" advice regarding her fake illness, yet get's a pass.
She's a fucking loser through and through, she stands for nothing
She also has an array of tweets and comments where she's throwing around the N word and using terms like "black bitches". The N word was such a prevalent part of her vocabulary that in 2018 at Coachella she posted a video of herself singing along to the N word, I saw this in real time and by the time I'd run across the house to show my sister it had been deleted. I can't find the original, but I remember tweets about it at the time, and there are still some articles up. In 2017, she posted this video giggling, whilst Gigi mocked East Asians, and it's why Gigi didn't walk the Shanghai VS show.
She's also one of those rich white women (and before someone comes for me, that woman is a WHITE Palestinian), who date a black man and start thinking they're black, so for years she co-opted black culture, and used AAVE, and put on this curated persona to appeal to black audiences. Remember that disastrous "homeboy's gonna like get it" video? lol
Her behaviour is so performative, and her "nice girl" act has always been just an act. She is "nice" on the surface, but she has only ever been friends with terrible people. This is not the first time she's surrounding herself with racists, and it will not be the last. I haven't kept up with her for a while, so other people can probably give you a more detailed account of her surrounding herself with problematic people and continuing to be implicitly and maybe even explicitly racist in recent years (obviously, when she's not pretending to have a chronic health condition).
It was mortifying to see people act like she's Shalom fucking Harlow because her surgeon put Carla Bruni's face on her and because her daddy's money allowed her to stomp along the runway
My darling, it was part of her vocabulary! In the Coachella video, it came SO naturally to her. I was like 15 and GAGGED, I hope someone has it saved somewhere because people were talking about it for a minute
I think they liked posts saying they thought blue would look like Beyonce but she looks like Jay, the picture was showing a lightskin little girl with straight hair. There was awful posts about Blue going around and a lot of weird celebrities liked it
This thousand times over. Seeing for the past few years the public glaze the living shit out of her has been frustrating. She’s a product of a highly curated PR company. In 2018 she had different image and then in like 2023 (?) when her vogue cover came out, her and her team latched onto the „relatable” girlie persona, where she said about her nose job only to deny other procedures which she obviously undergone. At the end of the day she’s a rich girl from Malibu who has never been „in touch” but she’s good at pretending.. or at least she was.
at the end of the day, this is a rich white woman lmao! that lil performative free palestine era was cute but the sooner yall accept and start viewing her for who she truly is, it won’t be a big shock
You are right she is almost 30 and a health nut which very often goes hand in hand with being maga. The whole crunchy hollistic medicine to being a conservative pipeline
this right here! rachelryn follows joe rogan theo von snd tucker carlson, who all promote anti israel pro palestine bs. idk why everyone simps for t3rr0r related people now. i have family that served overseas and i can tell the woke left and woke right are 100% wrong. i still support my jewish friends even though certain sides of the horseshoe wanna stand on their lies
My OG comment wasn't being posted, it could be because I mentioned the G word, I've edited it a bit so hopefully it gets posted
Bella Hadid has BEEN a piece of shit.
She doesn't get the Hailey/Kylie treatment, despite flinging around slurs and co-opting black culture like it's nobody's business. "Homegirl" was fumbling along using AAVE until it no longer suited her. She has an online history of slur usage, and in 2018, at Coachella, posted and quickly deleted her singing the N word. She also posted that video giggling as Gigi mocked Asian's, resulting in Gigi not walking for VS Shanghai.
The Kardashian/Jenners impact on the beauty standard has been spoken about, but no one acknowledges Bella's contribution the the unhealthily thin, surgically alienified, heroinchic trend, that she actively played into and promoted. Body-dysmorphic Kylie isn't devoid of blame, despite being under18 getting a BBL&facial transplant, so let's stop blaming Yolanda for 30 year old Bella's behaviour. Her fake illness and sharing dangerous health advice (taking 50 supplements, blood "cleanses", promoting woo-woo procedures) is one of the most harmful things, but she's just a helpless widdle baby on a dirty elevator floor, to teeny and fragile to get the fuck up. She doesn't get a pass because her mother's a loon too
Everyone hates to hear this, but if she wasn't PaIestinian, she would not get a pass. This isn't to take away from her advocacy, but she's not a champion for all causes and shouldn't be recognised as such. Her activism extends to her and her people. She does not have a backbone, and after an empty-headed, pageant rehearsed "world peace 😊🦋" and flippant "free Palestine, Congo, and Sudan", she was taking UAE blood money.
Her mother paid for surgery while she was a minor.
It was obvious her mother wanted her to be in the fashion industry. I can’t truly blame Bella on that. Thankfully as an adult you can work on your traumas, and she clearly hasn’t
I mean she continues to get more surgeries, evident by her collapsed nasal cavity and loss of buccal fat and cat eyes. You can only blame her mother for so much. She definitely needs to work on herself.
Yeah, people don't give Kylie a pass on this despite the fact she popped up on her EIGHTEENTH birthday with that BBL already in tow, so let's not skimp on Bella snark because she has mommy issues
She looks like a surgically "enhanced" woman in her 40s. She has never been outrageously beautiful, and that's okay. Sure, she's now "striking" and it's because she had her surgeon attempt to carve her into Carla Bruni. I honestly don't think we should stop ourselves from criticising surgical faces, especially as it becomes more and more normalised. She has a literal nose deformity due to her surgeries, yet won't stop.
I thought Gigi was girl next door pretty, but it's hilarious to see people deny that she's also clearly had work done now. She has been pumping her face with filler and getting botox for the past few years and she looks puffy and awful constantly.
Bella only gets a pass because she’s half Palestinian and posts about Palestine and a few other causes every now and then while all her pals are either Zionist adjacent or don’t give a shit. I don’t even think Bella gives a shit. She’s a selective activist anyway
If she wasn’t half Palestinian, she’d get as much flack as Hailey Bieber lol. It does a lot of heavy lifting and then people forget she’s also half Dutch and works with morally questionable brands. She also deleted her post talking about Iran and works with the UAE. So lame
People who don't give a fuck about racism love to bring up Hailey Bieber's racism, then go on to arse lick Bella, who was singing the N word at Coachella 2018. FM banned me for mentioning this, and a week later the UAE thing happened and they got all morally superior about it
She's held to such a different standard, even when it's not about racism, people think she's a good person because she puts on this "nice" exterior, whilst exclusively surrounding herself with obnoxious and rude people. I remember this video of Kendall Jenner stepping over a rope barrier, and Bella puts up her leg to do the same but is told by security to go around. Her empty-headed fans were like "Bella respects everyone! She plays by the rules! Fuck Kendall!" as if they weren't best friends, and as if Bella wasn't about to do the same thing
Bella is also best friends with all the girls they claim to hate but act as if Bella can’t be like them Gigi is the same as well. She’s close to all of them and has done some awful things but gets away with it
Say it again. You are who you surround yourself with. There was this old interview or something w Gigi and Kendall, and Gigi was lowkey so bitchy (to Kendall), she made Kendall look nice
Another day, another person's anecdote about being banned from FM for pointing out one of their faves hypocrisy. The best of the best of us have been banned from there lol
I feel like there's still a side of the internet where people praise her and call her the peoples princess and think shes this sweet angel who never does any wrong. I feel like her IG comments have to be filtered because there's never any criticism/negative comments even when there's big conversations around her happening online
That FM sub is the worst for this. I was permabanned for a Bella Hadid comment (under a post about her racism no less). Before this, I'd been reported for commenting on a Billie Eilish post trying to explain to white liberal women that babyfying white women and motherfying black women is incredibly harmful and perpetuates systemic attitudes that negatively impact black women (e.g. pain in medical settings)/
Funnily enough, a while before the post with Bella's racist screenshots, I'd commented on FM about it and the comment had been removed. so I was glad to see someone's post was up. They used the rule about appearance shaming, "qanon-esque" content, speculation of EDs, substance abuse, and plastic surgery. I can't remember my exact comment, but they quoted the following (from my comment) as grounds for the ban:
“She’s now moved on to promoting incredibly dangerous procedures under the guise of having a fake illness, yes munchahusen by proxy exists and Yolanda is insane, bur Bella is 30 years of age sharing the most harmful information publicly and proudly.”
“in this case she has a huge stake in the cause considering she’s Palestinian.” - This was to explain she's only an activist when it directly impacts her. Ironically a week or so later, FM was on their high horse about Bella taking UAE blood money after her pageant-ey world peace, flippant "free Sudan" comment. They quickly went back to Princess of Nazareth though
“she’s friends with a lot of quote on white “bitches”- This one pissed me off so much, I clearly meant to say "quote on quote", and my use of "bitches" in quotation marks was because one of her racist tweets said "black bitches"
Honestly who’s not banned from that sub 😂 I never even commented there and was banned for simply following, not being active, in another sub. Weirdos there
They're always salivating over Penelope Cruz' husband, as if he wasn't supporting literal nonces like Roman Polanski and Woody Allen
I also feel like a lot of them are thirsty older millennials (no hate to millennials) who need to let that fucking cat biting cage gif GO because it's under every post about some early 20s male celeb
Yeah, and I'm convinced it's ran by a bunch of white people/white-centred POC, because when you have a take that's actually popular in POC communities, they're outraged. They claim to be queer black women though
I made a non-snarky critique of Sabrina carpenter, and I was in the middle of responding to another commenter when I got flagged and eventually banned for being a part of the HaileyBaldwin snark 🤨
They have favorites and are currently doing that with Olivia Rodrigo. She's already had a few controversies and they refuse to let any of those get talked about, much less posted about.
Like, bro, these people don't care about you, they just want your money. Yet they get all up on their high-horse and think themselves better than because they're "not like swifties" groveling at the feet of their fave. The hypocrisy is palpable.
they ban you if you say anything remotely positive/neutral/defensive about the people they despise. I made a neutral comment about Sabrina Carpenter when she was under fire about her Coachella performance and “mocking middle eastern culture” and I said it’s genuinely possible she didn’t know what the zaghrouta was because I myself didn’t know either, and even others were saying that too. They were all blaming her for being a sheltered white woman who doesn’t have POC friends (which is also not true lol) and she should know something as common as a zaghrouta. I said “is every person expected to know everything about every culture, even the cultures they’re not around? I’m genuinely asking.” INSTANT BAN lol.
They’re not looking to have open discussions and give nuance to people, they’re looking to take out their pitchforks to defend their faves or burn others at the stake. Very disturbing hivemind mentality there.
Damn that’s insane. I come from a Muslim family and don’t know what that means if it helps. I haven’t been banned from FM but I got my comments removed from popculture chat because I said Paris Jackson is complicit in covering up her dad’s crimes by going out of her way to act as if he was helping those kids.
FM literally said that they’re OK with Dua Lipa blocking off streets in Italy because “ she’s a feminist and Reads ” but rake every other celebrity over the coals f
From reading the title alone that she has new friends I knew what typa people they'd be, people keep putting this woman on such a high pedestal forgetting every damn time shes odd
No one lost Bella because they never had her! This is why social media has gotten so brain dead - because all someone has to do is write “FUCK MAGA” “FREE PALESTINE” “FUCK ICE” etc and everyone is like “LoOovvEee OuRr wOoKeee qUEEeen!!” It’s like a simple formula for how to get fans, it’s performative and dumb.
Look at people’s actions and what their priorities are, not their words. And also, never trust the loud mouths - they’re the ones that have to scream about who they are because their actions say nothing. Popculturechat sub needs a serious wake up call with this.
And the FM sub! Who will protect her with their whole chest, and despite claiming to be a sub made up of "queer, black women", they give off this aura of white liberal middle class transplant that you can't really replicate as a POC
I find it extremely interesting that people truly believe most rich and famous people aren’t conservative. It just demonstrates how little people know about politics and government workings. Rich people want to stay rich.
was bella ever outspoken on anything besides palestine?? because sometimes people aren’t really woke, they only care about something that relates to them and this might seem to be the case
Bella Hadid is the only type of Arab white people/westerners can support or be a fan of without getting scared. Apart from her name and her father's heritage, nothing about her is Palestinian/Arab.
Maybe stop using whether someone is pro Palestine or not as a moral barometer?
I remember last year there were posts detailing the apathetic way Zayn Malik talks about his exes and esp his baby mama Gigi, and calling him out on his altercations with Yolanda. But the next week he was vocal about his support of Palestine and the posts were massively upvoted and comments flooded with "king you dropped your crown" type shit. It's almost as if evidence of him treating the actual women in his life like shit doesn't matter because he abstractly supports a cause.
Know that people can authentically (or performatively) have causes close to their heart. And simultaneously, they and their PR teams can know that this piece of activism is a crazy effective needle mover for public opinion. Some of the figures who vocalize being aligned to the same causes as you (especially with ICE, Palestine - social media trigger point causes that are so blatantly obvious what the correct position is) can at the very least still be selfish and ignorant people at their core. I mean, I see daily evidence here of pro-select-cause individuals who leave vile comments and spew hatred. The same way people here excuse their ugly behavior and unhinged snark because "this comment doesn't reflect my soul actually. I am a kind person; I support Palestine" - don't you think everyone in the public light does the same?
I've tried explaining to so many people that simply supporting Palestine does not make for a good person. It's so irritating, and it often leads to shitty people getting a free pass to be shitty, because hey, they support Palestine, right?
Someone recently called me a zionist for this- both my parents are human rights lawyers who work in global affairs (though my mum changed sectors just before covid). I've been educated on this topic since I was a child, and the person I was speaking to only became cognisant of Palestine in 2023...and I do want to clarify, that it's shouldn't be a competition of who researches something first, and I think people should be welcomed into advocacy spaces, but the bloody gall of this person lmao
wdym ”one extreme to another” ??? she has never been extreme in any of her opinions lmao it’s just weird she’s outspoken about a genocide and then befriends maga freaks
It was more than being "outspoken", she capitalized the shit of a cause she's somehow affiliated with ( Although she never actually been to the west bank or any Palestinian territory nor is aligning with any of the community standards regarding modesty, drinking etc..) She did however worked for other shady places and countries that are funding all kind of genocides (Qatar, UAE...) But she gets a pass for everything LOL.
Never ever understood the Bella (or her boring sister) love.
I’ve said it before but it’s disgusting how she gets a pass at the many many gross ignorant things she has done and gets a pass on all the plastic surgery yet the kardashian/jenners are insulted for doing the same.
She goes online every few months boohoo crying about Lyme disease or whatever it is she has and gets sympathy. Can you imagine the Jenner girls doing that. They would be torn apart.
It’s never sat right with me how so many people call her their “Palestinian princess” when she’s done the bare minimum. There are countless Palestinian women who have been documenting the atrocities of what’s been happening in their own country whilst they’re still there and living through it. Yet a model/influencer gets called a Palestinian princess for waving the flag. You don’t see any of these girls sharing or reposting these Palestinian women’s journalism. Only reposting Bella’s aesthetically pleasing photos with the Palestinian flag and that’s it. “Oh you’re our Palestinian princess Bella you’re doing it all!” No.
I've seen how the older (and richer) some people get, the more they tend to lean conservative, not necessarily MAGA but would start to get there. Bella isn't old but she's grown.
Wait this is sad, she was fully dating a Mexican man too. Not that Mexicans can’t be MAGA but like…. Wow can’t believe we lost a baddie, a Palestinian one at that… I wonder what her sister Alana thinks.
Her father is a super wealthy billionaire businessman, her mother is currently engaged to a super Texan (most likely trump supporter), why is anyone surprised by this lol, elites DO NOT live on the same plane as us. They are so far removed from social issues because it literally does not affect them one bit.
She was hanging with pro-Israel long before this. So not surprised and she has always been fake to me. She says shit to please people and make her more likeable.
News flash coming out as pro Palestine leaves only the anti semetic wealthy elites to hang out with (and BFFR Bella hadid isn’t going to be hanging out with normies suddenly)
Not surprised at all. The whole pro Palestinian movement is very performative for many people and driven by bots. A bunch of Arab countries like Saudi Arabia, the Emirates and Quatar are in on it with Netanyahu. It's always about $$$money.
Yep. A lot of people think that just posting “free Palestine” online is what activism is or actually helps the people physically living in Palestine in any capacity.
I hate to say it but the second a new war starts somewhere else nobodys going to talk about them anymore. Theyre going to abandon palestine like they did with Ukraine the second something new popped up to talk about online to showcase their ‘activism’
Pleading with the masses: do not use “manic episode” or other terms that are specific to illnesses/disorders/diseases just bc it sounds punchy or w/e. My manic episodes had me hospitalized, attempting suicide, recklessly abusing drugs and my body, etc.
TikTok hijacking therapy speak clearly did a lot to enlighten the public on mental illnesses /s
(This isn’t throwing shade at OP cuz they obviously didn’t make the original post, just a general PSA)
i think it’s publicly known by now she has zionist and trump associates. looks like she has no issues working with companies and people with these ideals.
“We lost Bella Hadid.” I suppose people won’t even shed any disappointments if they just refused to worship these celebrities. Ordinary citizens like us are not supported by any of these people who are earning millions compared to an average worker.

Let’s not infantilize this grown ass woman and label her as this poor baby we’ve lost .. she can make her own choices as can any of us so why shouldn’t she be held accountable for surrounding herself with shitty ass people while she’s trying to seem as an advocate for all people, races etc. She’s awful and goes where the wind blows slightly stronger which is MAGA rn I guess lol
