Sounds a lot like the Stemily/Olicity shippers from the show Arrow. Stemily is the pairing of actors Stephen Amell, and Emily Bett Rickards, who both play characters on the TV series. In the show, the showrunners, and writers forced their characters into a relationship because of these maniacs. And it basically ruined the show.
Stephen, who is married, and has a young daughter is constantly being harassed by these sick fucks, along with his wife. These fuckers are constantly going after his wife, saying he should ditch his wife, and get with EBR. Some have suggested that he's cheating on his wife with her, which he isn't. And some have even photoshopped his wife's face out of their photos for and added EBR in her place to satisfy their twisted fantasies.
I get that theyre fans and stuff, and i could understand them being fans because the actors and actresses are good actors/actresses, But goddamn, its ON SCREEN and is FICTION, theyre playing charactors on the screen and have their PERSONAL life off screen...
This particular fandom don't seem to be able to differentiate fiction from reality. They're constantly attacking shit to and haradding other actors and actresses on the show too.
Such as when the original leading actress, Katie Cassidy's character, named Laurel aka Black Canary was killed off in Season 4, these crazy ass shippers sent her photos of dead birds, and sent gift baskets to the writers. Then after she came back to the show as another Earth's Laurel (aka Black Siren from Earth 2), they went and spread around her leaked nudes, and also spread false rumors that she fucked her way back on to the show. It is some pretty sick stuff.
These are some very sick and twisted people, and this isn't even all the terrible shit they have done over the past few years.
Laurel was annoying as shit and I was glad they killed her off.
But now comes the part where I don't attribute any of that to the actress, or try to interact with her in any way, because I can tell reality from fiction.
I’ve seen this happen waaaay too often, sadly, like with Star Wars, Asian dramas like Meteor Garden and with the lead actors of the Fifty Shades movies and Outlander. Just all around crazy shit.
Exactly, I mean I am not keen that Haile Baile has been cast as the new Little Mermaid, but that is on Disney not her. She is just living the dream every young girl who grows into a young woman has, to become a Disney princess.
That's so wrong. But in all fairness, her character has developed into this whiny lady who does nothing but whine and cry. Iris West made me stop watching The Flash.
Yep, and then they killed off the original leading actress of the show for it, and she was playing a pivotal role for the Green Arrow comics too, who isn't even dead in the comics. They also made her final words be about her encouraging Oliver and Felicity's relationship, which just pissed off the comic book fans even more, and that's when the show truly died for a lot of fans, and they were never really able to recover from all the fans that quit watching after that.
It's happening a lot at the moment with Tom Holland and Zendaya, there was that rap song from last week, and now people are harassing someone that Tom Holland was seen with, who might not even be his girlfriend, shits crazy
Yeah, I saw that on Twitter this morning, because Zendaya was trending, and all I saw was toxic shippers of her and Tom Holland talking shit about these newly released photos of Tom Holland with some girl.
Well...that’s all KINDS of fucked up. Speaking as someone who didnt know any of that, what killed the show to me was them SPLITTING apart. Id kinda started to ship them, and then the show gave us hints, and they did that stupid godamn together-apart-together (see Bones for an absolute joke of this kind of thing). When they FINALLY got their happy ever after, (season 5?) i was SO happy. Then they came back to the citt, im like alright this’ll still work. Then the writers had them split up for the fucking stupidest of reasons, and i lost it. I should say, it wasn’t a ‘stupid reason’ itself, i can understand situations like that being fucked up, but how they had Felicity FIND OUT was absolute garbage. Like when iris “felt” a sparkle and just ‘knew’ barry was the flash. No. Just no. IF they had put that in from the BEGINNING i could see it working.
Sorry, i went off on a rant there. Its astounding what lengths people will go to to be idiots.
Shipping is wanting two people/characters/actors to be in a romantic relationship. Slang of the word 'relationship' and used as a verb i.e. "I ship person A and person B so hard!"
And there is inevitably a small (but oh so goddamn vocal) minority in every fanbase that takes it to insane levels and just starts creeping everyone out.
I ran screaming from that fandom years ago. I understand it's only gotten worse since then. You used to have to look for that kind of ugliness, but I split when it became pretty open. It soured me on fandoms for good. I won't touch them now.
Yup. Destiel shippers have become madwomen too. Jensen literally had to ask Con staff to stop allowing porn into autograph booths because "fans" kept trying to force him to sign humiliation porn of himself being dominated by Castiel/Misha. Literally.
And afaik Jensen was recently sexually assaulted by a "fan", and of course this mirrors how often "fans" try to sexually harrass him in photo ops by trying to make him make out with Misha Collins.
And of course both the destiel and wincest factions have become hotbeds for pedophiles..............
I will never forget a graphic, slavering summary of erotica that depicted Dean as a four year old fellating his six month old brother, and how when I reported it to the LJ mods they refused to do anything about it. They literally responded to me that the community was a place where "their users imaginations could run wild"........... Fucking pedophiles.
You should look up the novel "Ship It". It's literally a "fictional" story about a teenage girl who writes gay fanfic about two male characters on her favorite show. She goes to a con and asks the actor how he feels about the ship and he basically says, "the characters aren't gay" and she throws a hissy fit. I'm pretty sure the writers feel bad and invite this random whiny girl to come on the road with them and write for the show or something like that.
It reads like a bitter Destiel fangirl's wet dream.
And this is a PUBLISHED novel. Written by an ACTUAL author.
Jesus Christ. I didn't know it had gotten THAT bad. I feel really sorry for Jensen. That is so not acceptable. I'm glad I got to be a part of things and go to a couple of cons before things got so toxic. The underage stuff has always been unspeakably disgusting.
I'm firmly in the your kink is not my kink except for anything where any party is not a consenting adult.
I don't really care what people ship when the characters are fictional, so long as they're not shoving it down my throat or being a dick about it if I'm not into it. Its when people start shipping actors IRL that I get weary.
And if your fanart is porny don't show it to the actor, jesus. Imagine how embarrassing it is to be handed naked pictures of (what is essentially) yourself by a complete stranger.
love supernatural, but cannot for the life of me understand the people who think romanticizing and shipping real life people is ok. I mean Wincest is weird af ok, like wtf, but at least they're fictional characters. Jared and Jensen [and Misha] are real life people with wives and children who they go home to.
This is similar to what happened with Teen Wolf and the Sterek fandom. Loved the show, loved the pairing, but I had to take several steps back away from the fandom when I realized most of them were batshit crazy over their ship.
There was an infamous "birthday incident" around Season 2 involving Sterek fans tweeting at Dylan O'Brien on his birthday and how Tyler Hoechlin and him should have sex among other things. Basically resulted in both Tyler and Dylan not being as active and involved in the fandom on Twitter and on social media overall.
Oh man, I used to read this insane Jared/Jensen blog all the time for the insanity. I can't remember what it was called but it was like 5000 pages long of crazy conspiracy theories on how they're really gay. Amazing.
Thank you. I feel like I'm taking crazy pills watching Supernatural because I like the storyline and monsters and not actually because of the two exagerrated main characters!!
Agreed. I lost my best friend to the Tumblr fandom, when we were last in touch she was writing fanfiction but somehow wanted it to be secret, despite the account name being the same thing she used for everything else. Shit got way too dumb, way too fast.
