In a 7 May Instagram Story Q&A, the admin told a user to "hang a poster above your bed" and called current fan behaviour "mental institution level bat shit crazy embarrassing."
The remarks drew criticism on Reddit and X, where readers argued the celebrity gossip account profits from and amplifies the same parasocial, gossip-driven culture it mocked.
