Being a celebrity in the 21st century isn’t so easy. Everything is photographed and on social media before anyone’s had a chance to stop it. Still, some celebs seem to enjoy airing their grievances with each other in public.
Reality TV is notorious – and perhaps popular – for its many on-air feuds and disputes, and certain personalities become known for their many inter-celebrity feuds. There are angry Tweets, diss tracks, and on-air interviews airing their beefs.
Sometimes, though, all the drama is resolved, and peace is restored. Here are some celeb beefs that cooled down over time.
10 Demi Lovato, Selena Gomez, & Miley Cyrus Had A Disney Channel Era Beef That’s Dwindled Away
Miley and Nick Jonas dated from 2006 to 2008, when all three were Disney Channel stars. Then...Nick dated Selena not long after the break-up, and she even appeared in a Jonas Brothers music video the same year. Needless to say, there were hard feelings involved. Miley later went on to mock one of Selena and Demi's YouTube videos. Still later, Miley started to see Justin Bieber after he and Selena broke up. But, by 2019, the three of them were sharing happy memories, so it looks like the teenage drama's been forgotten.
9 Katy Perry And Taylor Swift Patched Up Their Backup Dancer Feud With A (Literal) Olive Branch
Katy and Tay-Tay started out as friends, but then fell out in 2014 when Swift accused Perry of stealing some of her backup dancers. The two seemingly held a grudge for about four years. During her Reputation tour, Katy sent a real olive branch to Taylor, who was backstage at the time. Swift posted the incident on her IG Story, and then invited Perry to be in her next video (for the song “You Need to Calm Down”). Apparently, it’s been all sweetness and light between them ever since.
8 Lady Gaga And Madonna Made Up After The Material Girl Called Gaga ‘Reductive’
Madonna called Lady Gaga’s mega-single “Born This Way” “reductive” in an interview, after fans pointed out the resemblance to her own huge hit “Express Yourself”. Gaga addressed it in her 2017 Netflix documentary, Gaga: Five Foot Two. “She wouldn’t look me in the eye and tell me that I was reductive,” Gaga said. “Telling me you think I’m a piece of s—t through the media? It’s like a guy passing me a note through his friend.” But, by February 2019, they were cuddling at an Oscars afterparty, seemingly all patched up.
7 Drake And Meek Mill Ended Their Feud With A Song
In 2015, rapper Meek Mill accused Drake of not writing his own lyrics, an accusation that has dogged the "Hotline Bling" hitmaker throughout his career.
A series of social media posts and diss tracks ensued, including Drake's "Back to Back" where he sings, ‘Think Before You Come for the Great One’. All feuding aside, though, Drake supported Mill when he was in jail, and apparently the gesture was appreciated. By 2018, all of it seemed to be put into the past when Drake invited Mill to join his show at Boston's TD Gardens.
6 Pink And Christina Aguilera’s Feud Began With Lady Marmalade
In a VH1 Behind the Music special released in 2009, Pink talked about the tensions with Christina Aguilera during the filming of Lady Marmalade (also starring Mya and Lil’ Kim) – tensions still brewing 8 years later. But, behind the scenes, a reconciliation was taking place. In 2017, when an Xtina fan tried to diss Pink, she took to Twitter. "Want to point out an awful new phenomenon of the last 10 years. We can no longer be happy for each other," she wrote. “I [heart] Xtina, we've made amends….”
5 Karamo Brown And Antoni Porowski Feuded Behind The Scenes Of Queer Eye
Season 1 of Queer Eye was apparently a hotbed of conflict and tension behind the scenes, according to an interview with Karamo Brown. “My castmate in Queer Eye, Antoni, people didn’t know that we had an extreme amount of conflict,” Brown told E! News in 2019. “On camera, it was about that person and about creating something successful and so, that was genuine, but off camera, the minute that camera stopped rolling, ‘Girl, don’t come near me.’” After shooting wrapped up, a good talk cleared the air between them.
4 Lady Gaga Made Up With Sharon Osbourne – But Kelly Remains Unimpressed
Lady Gaga, Kelly and Sharon Osbourne's feud began in 2009, when Kelly criticized Gaga, and then inflamed Gaga fans by suggesting the pop singer looked pregnant. Kelly, at the time, was a judge on Fashion Police, but also complained about her treatment by Gaga's fans on social media.
Gaga wrote an open letter, Sharon got involved. The feud ended with a hug on-air during The X Factor's live results after Gaga presented Sharon with a birthday cake for Kelly, and a huge round of applause from the audience. Kelly, however, remained unimpressed.
3 Ryan Gosling And Rachel McAdams Feuded On Set – And Later Became A Couple
While many fans consider The Notebook one of the most romantic movies ever made, the truth on the set was far from it. It turns out that Ryan Gosling and Rachel McAdams couldn’t stand each other at first, and Gosling even went so far as to ask director Nick Cassavetes to bring in another actress to read his lines with. The tense situation didn’t last for too long, though, and the two actors eventually became a couple. Even after they split, the two were said to be on friendly terms.
2 Ariana Grande Made Up With Piers Morgan After An Accidental Meeting
Pop star Ariana Grande and media personality Piers Morgan got into a social media feud after Morgan complained about feminism and Ellen Degeneres. He also attacked group Little Mix for a nude photoshoot. Grande's mother Joan got into the debate on Twitter, and then Ariana herself. Then, in February 2019, he happened to bump into Grande at an LA bar. The two talked and made up over drinks. As Ariana commented, “turns out face to face discussions are a bit kinder and gentler, even if you do indeed disagree.”
1 Pitted Against Each Other In A Competitive Business, Naomi Campbell And Tyra Banks Are Now Friends
When Tyra Banks arrived in Paris as a budding supermodel during the bad old days, there was little opportunity for Black models. Banks has said that she felt bullied by Campbell at the time, but blames it on the industry. “It does irk me that two women of color have to be pitted against each other,” Campbell commented in an interview. “You can have more than one woman of color in a fashion show. Unfortunately, back then, you could only have one so the other felt... put out.” Nowadays, the two are friends.
