Celebrities have been letting fans into their lives and homes via social media while social distancing, but critics say they are out of touch.

Portia de Rossi has been teaching herself how to cook during the coronavirus lockdown. It's been an eye-opening experience for the actress -- and for her fans.

Stuck inside, Justin Bieber reverted to a childhood objective. Clad in a onesie and a winter hat, the singer attempted a round of "The Floor Is Lava " in his massive living room, leaping onto cushions, chairs, foot stools, two skateboard and a roller. The video has been seen over 9 million times. The coronavirus has also unlocked places we never expected to go, like Selena Gomez's bathroom and inside Broadway star Adrienne Warren's bathtub. We've gotten to inspect Rosie O'Donnell's messy garage/art studio.

"By giving their audience a glimpse into their lives -- from showing their homes, their families or themselves looking casual, like people typically do at home -- celebrities are likely to actually increase their engagement," Ben-Itzhak says. "Users seem to really engage with natural, authentic-looking content, especially right now. It gives a feeling of 'We're all in this together.

Akshaya Sreenivasan, a social media marketing expert at Texas A&M University's Mays Business School, says as the COVID-19 crisis drags on, celebrities are bound to face more online hate.

Being ignored as irrelevant isn't a 'backlash'.

If any good comes out of this, is that Hollywood, Actors, Athletes and the rest of the ephemeral beings revert back to the cultural category of 'useless things' that they belong in. No more listening to the opinions of uneducated dolts and morons just because they play pretend.

Vacuous news about superfluous people that have no bearing on the real world. Pandemic around the world, 1000's dead, and the Hollywood media thinks these useless dress up dolls are somehow still relevant. Who really gives a flying f**k about these useless muppets?

Dear Celebrities: No One Cares What You Think

Celebrities don't seem to realize that:

The more articles you guys write the more the public absolutely detests you.. you're on a roll! Don't stop now

Those two always look so amazing together!

They are all rich, how about giving back to your community.

No one wants to hear or see these narcissists right now. They need to sit down.

Poor mean Ellen...stuck in one of her many mansions .. so bored. Trying to relate to the common folk who made her rich. It was cringeworthy watching her show from her mansion. So phony missing her crew. Fuck off Ellen

Yeah the world is finding out they are all pedophiles...

Backlash? For being attention seeking whores? Oh noess! They just can’t stand it when the plebs are finally realizing that their opinions and status mean jack- sh*f during a real crisis!
