Hilarious Reactions to Celebrity Break Ups


What is it about celebrity couples? Why do any of us really care? I mean, I don’t care, myself. I wasn’t absolutely devastated when Justin Bieber and Selena Gomez split up, or anything. It’s not like they were a match made in heaven, and my own personal hopes and dreams were tied into their success as a couple. That’s ridiculous. Why would you even imply that? (Take him back, Selena. He has so much more love to give!)

In any case, people can’t seem to get enough of those juicy, drama-filled celebrity love-lives. In fact, people (again—excluding myself—who has no interest whatsoever in this kind of thing. P.S. take him back, Selena.) get so involved in following the relationship developments of celebrity couples, it can come as a real heartbreaker when they, well, break each other’s hearts.

The question I ask myself… er, rather, the question that needs to be asked, is ‘How can I possibly cope with the news that my favorite celebrity couple has called it quits?’ Well, there are a few options at our disposal. You can let your emotions fly, or mask the pain with humor. Of course, the latter option may create something of a slumbering darkness inside your soul, void of all rational thought and insidiously creeping toward insanity—until one day you have a meltdown outside of Whole Foods, take off your shirt, climb atop your car and shout “True love is dead!” at people passing by. Not that anything like that ever happened to me, or anything.

But that’s not important. What is important is this: celebrity breakups are a whole lot funnier thanks to Twitter. Let’s take a look at some of our favorite reactionary tweets.

Kat Von D and Deadmau5 Split Up

I know what you’re thinking, ‘Who the heck is Kat Von D and Deadmau5, and why should I care?’ Well, you shouldn’t care. But, you know, some people might tell you they were a really great couple. Like, so cute together. Remember, this is important stuff to some people. Stop judging me.

Anyway, Kat Von D is a reality TV star, famed tattooist, and person who looks like Amy Winehouse, but isn’t Amy Winehouse. Nobody could be Amy Winehouse except Amy Winehouse. Kat was briefly engaged to Deadmau5—a DJ, music producer, and person who isn’t Skrillex. That last factoid may come as a shock to anybody listening to his music.

Look at this happy couple that nobody cares about. Especially not me.

The two got engaged over Twitter, which is the hallmark of every healthy relationship ever. Fittingly, they also broke up over Twitter. Again, pretty standard move for mature, rational adults handling a breakup. Nothing childish about it.  At all. At least they didn’t follow through with the marriage. It would be hard to find a San Diego divorce attorney you can direct message.

Our favorite reaction came from Zack, Twitter handle @thirstyzack.

Sick burn, bro. That’s what kids say, right? ‘Sick burn bro?’ I’m asking for a friend.

We’ll also award points to Griff Pippin, who uses the strikingly original Twitter handle @GriffPippin. He really, really reached for this pun, and yet it went virtually ignored. He deserves some recognition.

Ba-dum-tiss.

Kermit and Miss Piggy Call it Quits

All our lives we’ve been lied to. For years, we assumed Kermit and Miss Piggy’s off-screen romance was idyllic. They’ve been going steady since 1955, for crying out loud. But alas, their relationship turned out to be as bad as their new TV show.

The best reaction came from Funny or Die, who apparently got their hands on Ms. Piggy’s Tinder profile:

One Direction Splitting Up

One Direction. Pffft. Who in their right mind likes this stuff? What kind of loser sits alone in his bedroom, playing “What Makes You Beautiful” on the stereo, rocking back and forth in a fetal position while muttering “they were never meant to break up” over and over again? Can you imagine the kind of person who would do that? I can’t.

Anyway, when tween pop superstars One Direction announced they were “splitting up,” fans absolutely lost it. It turns out they’re just taking a break, thank God. I mean, not that I care. But the Twitter reactions were nonetheless enjoyable:

That’s all I can write about celebrity break ups… for now.
