8 of the most passive aggressive celeb beefs ever

There always seems to be some sort of beef in the land of those famous folk and we were confused when we heard on Grimmy's show that Lady Gaga had kinda thrown shade at Madonna but kinda not.

Gaga has said that people can't compare the two stars because she writes her own music and isn't afraid of being herself. YIKES. Now that isn't outwardly mean but it's kind of rude.

So that got us thinking about actually how passive aggressive celeb fights are. Because leaving someone wondering whether or not you were shading is the ultimate shade...

After being pretty good friends for a while, Katy Perry and Taylor Swift’s friendship hit the skids. No one is quite sure what started the feud but there were rumours of stolen dancers and both dating John Mayer.

Katy tweeted a reference to someone being the real life Regina George [from Mean Girls] and Taylor released Bad Blood. Awks.

After reports surfaced that Jennifer Lopez had been offered some music that Mariah had wanted, Mimi was asked about J-Lo by foreign press, to which she replied ‘I don’t know her.’ One of the most famous singers in the world? Sure.

Selena was reportedly NOT chuffed when rumours came her way that Kendall Jenner and Justin Bieber had been getting all cosy and such. Selena quickly unfollowed both Kylie and Kendall on social media which we all know means beef.

The beginning of Taylor and Kanye’s feud has to be one of the most passive aggressive moments in history! When Taylor was accepting her award for Album of the Year at the 2009 MTV VMAs, Yeezus stormed the stage claiming that: ‘Imma let you finish but Beyonce had one of the best videos of all time’. Shaaaade.

When Demi hit out at a fan, that had drawn fan-art of her, for changing her body shape in his art, Camilla Cabello instagrammed a picture of loads of Fifth Harmony fan-art and said how appreciative she was. Demi responded with a vague tweet about remembering where you come from, probs referencing to the fact that she picked the band for the US X Factor.

What’s more passive aggressive than leaving comments on someone’s Instagram but not referencing them? Biebs responded to Selena Gomez telling him to be nicer to his fans with: ‘It’s funny to see people that used me for attention and still try to point the finger this way. Sad. All love.’ Ooooooohhhhhh.

It all started with Nicki and Demi posed with fashion designer Jeremy Scott and Nicki only tagged Jeremy in her Insta posts. Shady in itself. Then Demi posted pictures of Nicki giving her the most amount of side-eye we’ve ever seen. Lols.

After Justin’s dad Jeremy made some comments about Justin’s nude pictures actress Bette Midler critisised him on Twitter. Justin responded by getting her name wrong. Obvs.

He told Billboard: "This Britt Meddler. I don’t even know who that is, honestly. I wanted to immediately say ‘Who is this lady?’, but then I’m just fuelling this negativity.” The ultimate shade.
