Since celebrities are often seen living the glamorous life filled with private jets, glam teams, and red carpet appearances, it can be easy to forget that they're real human beings who have feelings. But unlike everyday people, celebrities often deal with unfavorable feelings in a public way. Sometimes they cope in healthy ways, like by writing songs about the dramas they're facing—Olivia Rodrigo, we're still blaring "Driver's License." Other times though, they take a different approach and choose to call someone out on social media—remember when Kim Kardashian called out Chloë Grace Moretz on Twitter? Throughout time, the public has gotten to witness a plethora of celebrity feuds. From the Kardashians to Taylor SwiftL'OFFICIEL breaks down seven of the most jaw-dropping ones below. 

Nicola Peltz and Victoria Beckham

The alleged feud between Victoria Beckham and her son's new wife Nicola Peltz the subject of speculation for quite some time. Shortly, after Brooklyn Beckham married Peltz in April, rumors began swirling that the famous fashion designer did not get along with her new daughter-in-law. However, both Peltz and Brooklyn have shut down rumors. Most recently, according to E! News, Peltz addressed the fact that she did not wear one of Victoria's designs for her wedding. "I was going to and I really wanted to, and then a few months down the line, she realized that her atelier couldn't do it, so then I had to pick another dress." She continued, "She didn't say you can't wear it; I didn't say I didn't want to wear it. That's where it started, and then they ran with that."

Text messages between Pete Davidson and Kanye West.

Kim Kardashian's recent relationship with former Saturday Night Live Comedian Pete Davidson has been making headlines for months. And not just because they were an absolutely adorable pair that no one saw coming, but also because Kardashian's ex-husband Kanye West very publicly shared his distaste for the relationship on multiple occasions. Recently, after news broke that the reality star and comedian had gone their separate ways, Ye didn't hesitate to share his thoughts on the breakup. In a since-deleted Instagram post, the rapper shared a fake newspaper headline with the words "Skete Davidson dead at age 28" scrawled across the top.  

Will Smith and Chris Rock

Unlike Ye and Davidson's digital feud, this one got physical. Back in March at the Academy Awards, Smith stormed on stage and made a beeline to Rock—who had just made a joke about Smith's wife, Jada Pinkett Smith. Within seconds, Smith slapped Rock, leaving viewers and attendees asking themselves, "Was that supposed to happen?" Since the infamous slap, Smith has penned multiple apologies, including one in a recent YouTube video

Taylor Swift shook it off at the 2009 MTV VMAs when the "Monster" artist interrupted her and said that Beyoncé was the one who *actually* deserved the award. But after an apology, taking back the apology, and some other interactions between the two, the feud was reignited in 2016 after Ye released his song "Famous," featuring a few controversial lyrics like, "I feel like me and Taylor might still have sex / Why? I made that b**** famous." The rapper claimed that Swift approved the lyrics, but Swift denied this. At one point, Kardashian even chimed in, posting video proof that Swift had approved of the lyrics, however, a longer video of the full phone conversation, released three years later, seemed to complicate the idea of who was really telling the truth.

Sarah Jessica Parker and Kim Cattrall

And just like that, two of the lead characters in the late '90s show Sex and the City are no longer friends. Well, technically, Cattrall says they were never friends at all. Back in 2018, after Cattrall suddenly lost her brother, SJP left a comment on her post, sharing her condolences. But Cattrall was not having it and shared another post with the text, "I don't need your love or support at this tragic time @sarahjessicaparker." In her lengthy caption, she continued, "My Mom asked me today “When will that @sarahjessicaparker, that hypocrite, leave you alone?” Your continuous reaching out is a painful reminder of how cruel you really were then and now. Let me make this VERY clear. (If I haven’t already) You are not my family. You are not my friend. So I’m writing to tell you one last time to stop exploiting our tragedy in order to restore your 'nice girl' persona."

In 2020, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle shocked the world when they announced that they were going to "step back as ‘senior’ members of the Royal Family." A little over a year later, the two sat down with Oprah Winfrey to discuss the "Megxit," dropping bombshells about mental health, racism, and more throughout the duration of the interview. 

Naomi Campbell and Tyra Banks

After Banks had previously declared that Campbell didn't exactly give her a warm welcome into the modeling industry—remember when Banks once said: "As much as I was getting fashion shows, people didn't know that I would come home at night crying a lot because the woman I admired didn't want me to be there and was doing everything in her power to make me go away"—it seemed that the two had moved forward. But in 2020, Campbell raised some eyebrows after posting an Instagram story, which included a screenshot of a news post titled, "Here's Why Fans Are Starting To Think Tyra Banks Is The Real Mean Girl, Not Naomi Campbell."
