It’s no secret that celebrities bring a level of inspiration to their fans. While you have your casual listeners and viewers, there are those who see their faves as more than just entertainers. People and fans take insight from their faves to do a wide variety of things from making art, organizing events, and even pursuing certain career paths. The influence is real and a scroll through Twitter can show how fandoms have acted in ways because of what their idols have said and done. But not everything they do has to be big or hardcore. In fact, it can even be quite random. This is where the odd yet admittedly fun trend of comparing celebrities to random things come in.
YOUR FAVE AS PLANTS, A THREAD
In case you don’t know, these Twitter threads are basically when fans compare their idol or a certain celebrity to literally anything under the sun. Want to compare your favorite actress to nail art? Go ahead. Think your fave musician reminds you of certain bacteria? No one’s stopping you. Literally anything goes. If you can think if it, you most likely can do it. It definitely is one of those moments that you’ll only find on stan Twitter. On the outside looking in, you might think that these celeb as threads on Twitter make no sense, but that’s part of the charm to it.
These comparisons actually show off the imagination of the fans. Who would think of comparing someone to ampalaya? Some actually might. It also shows how dedicated and knowledgeable some fans are since they’re able to pick through the life’s work of their faves to make the apt references. The threads also serve as a way for fans to compliment or highlight certain features of their idols, whether it be talking about their natural charms, their sense of style, or anything in between. It’s just another unique way for fans to show their love and even elicit a giggle or two from other users. With that being said, we rounded up some of our favorite celeb as threads on Twitter for your enjoyment.
