25 Outlandish Celeb Rumours That People Aren’t Sure Are True Or False
It’s quite normal to hear stories about celebs and not be sure whether they are true or false. Some rumours sound so outrageous that it’s hard to imagine that they aren’t just made up by some disgruntled person with nothing better to do. But despite the lack of proof, certain stories have made it into the rumour mill and gained quite a bit of popularity to boot. Recently, one Redditor invited users on the platform to share the most unhinged celeb rumours they’ve heard but still don’t know whether to believe or dismiss as fake, and folks did not disappoint in their responses.
#1
That Adam Sandler made the movie Jack and Jill to help Katie Holmes escape The Scientology Church.
#2
Stevie wonder isn’t 100% blind. There are videos that people use as evidence. I’m not saying it’s true, but…. Man they have a convincing argument.
#3
The drummer from Nirvana and the lead singer from Foo Fighters are the same person.
#4
The actress Shirley Eaton who was covered in all gold for the James Bond movie Goldfinger died as a result because they didn’t leave any part unpainted so her skin could breathe.
#5
That Ted Cruz’s dad was the zodiac k**ler.
#6
The Disney Company made the movie Frozen to hide the fact that Walt Disney was cryogencially frozen. If people google “Disney Frozen” you don’t see anything about the rumor anymore, it’s all about the movie.
#7
I don’t know if this was ever widespread, but I was once substitute teaching for a group of middle schoolers who insisted that Neil Patrick Harris is straight. No one was quite sure why he’d pretend to be gay though, aside from some vague guesses that it might help his career somehow.
To their credit, though, they did seem to realize it was silly pretty quickly. Either that or they were just humoring me, in which case I still can’t be mad because that’s way nicer than my peers and I usually were to subs.
#8
That the Kardashians keep Rob fat so they can use him for fat transfers.
#9
As a kid in the 70s, I remember hearing that Gene Simmons somehow had a cow tongue transplant, which accounted for his extra long tongue. The junior high youth group leaders at my church were bottomless reservoirs of stupid s**t.
#10
Elvis is alive in Kalamazoo Michigan working at a grocery store.
#11
Michael Jackson being the secret lovechild of Diana Ross and Smokey Robinson.
#12
John Travolta is straight.
#13
The kid from the Life cereal commercial (Mikey) died from eating pop rocks and drinking coke.
#14
That the Victoria’s Secret company is bankrupt and being kept afloat by Leonardo DiCaprio to use as a personal dating service.
#15
That Trent Reznor from NIN is actually Taco (the Puttin’ On The Ritz guy). I mean, nobody’s ever seen them in the same place, so it’s, like, gotta be true.
#16
That Robert Downey Jr was the one who began leaking all the Dan Schneider reports.
#17
My favorite feel good celebrity rumor is that everyone who’s been on a set with Paris Hilton says she’s super sweet and friendly and is much more intelligent than her persona portrays.
#18
Mister Rogers was a sniper in the Vietnam War, with dozens of confirmed k**ls. The reason he wore sweaters was to hide the tattoos up and down his arms.
#19
That Linda Rondstadt was a s*x maniac. Didn’t lower my appreciation for her one bit.
#20
Is anyone gonna mention the Tupac conspiracy? Listen to his first posthumous album for clues… the man is still alive in Cuba!
These rumors.
#21
That in the contract for any movie he does Mark Wahlberg puts a stipulation that says he is allowed to quit the project if anyone on set calls him Marky Mark.
#22
Justin Timberlake made out with my friend at the local fair! 😂.
#23
Keith Richards used to have a full blood transfusion before touring in the 80s.
#24
That Richard Gere had a gerbil stuck up his a*s.
#25
Janet Jackson had a daughter with James DeBarge at 18 and hid her by having her older sister Rebbie raise her as her own.
Shanilou Perera
Shanilou has always loved reading and learning about the world we live in. While she enjoys fictional books and stories just as much, since childhood she was especially fascinated by encyclopaedias and strangely enough, self-help books. As a kid, she spent most of her time consuming as much knowledge as she could get her hands on and could always be found at the library. Now, she still enjoys finding out about all the amazing things that surround us in our day-to-day lives and is blessed to be able to write about them to share with the whole world as a profession.
