The fame and marketability of celebrities can decline for a number of reasons, including age, personal issues, or controversy.

A user took the forum and asked,  Who was a celebrity five years ago but is now considered ‘washed up’? Here are the common responses. 

ELLEN DEGENERES

“Ellen DeGeneres. After being exposed, she doesn’t get talked about much as of today.”

 

KEVIN SPACEY

“Kevin Spacey, back when House of Cards was popular.”

 

JAMES FRANCO

“James Franco vanished.”

“There were a handful of cases filed against him. I think he kinda disappeared to try and stay off everyone’s radar until enough people forget.” 

 

IGGY AZALEA

“Iggy Azalea. Although I guess going the Only-Fans route is a “comeback” of sorts, maybe.” 

 

RONDA ROUSEY

“Ronda Rousey.” 

“She was in a blockbuster action movie too, whose name escapes me. She was the baddy’s final boss’s final guard or something like that, and in a big fight scene. There was a car on the top floor of a skyscraper, is all I remember.” 

 

DANE COOK

“More than five years, but I remember when Dane Cook was doing standup and movies and was a pretty big name…where is he now?”

 

JOSEPH GORDON

“Joseph Gordon-Levitt. Not washed up, but the guy seemed like he was in every movie from 2010-2015 and just stopped.” 

 

DEMI LOVATO

FETTY WAP

“Fetty wap”

“He was also horrible to book. We booked him for a nightclub I managed. He came out and did two songs and left. Got paid WAY too much and demanded way too much. I’ve dealt with the worst talent, but I’d imagine that kind of business dealings killed a lot of his bookings.” 

 

THE BAND FUN

“The band FUN. What happened to them? They were inescapable and then vanished.” 

“the band broke up; they’re all kind of doing their things now. They’ve been broken up for quite a while too. Nate has his own music, and the drummer started the band Bleachers, which is actually pretty good.” 

 

KANYE WEST

“Kanye. His antics finally overshadowed his music to such a degree that there was no coming back, at least for now.”

“It’s really sad as I’m someone who used to be a big fan of Kanye.

I’m starting to think he’s always been like this, though, and the fame, plus the money, only helped further his downfall. I still think his music sounds great, and he’s always been so extremely talented with music, but I just don’t take him as seriously anymore. For someone who portrays himself as a Christian man, Kanye is so presumptuous and egotistical too.”

 

SAM WORTHINGTON

“Sam Worthington

Avatar was supposed to make him the new leading man in Hollywood. He had a few movies, and he still pops up, but I don’t see him often, and he’s not that great an actor.”
