Being a well-known Hollywood celebrity exposes you as a person. Because of your fame, some people adore you and others despise you.

Even while it may appear as internet trolling, hate and rage can occasionally become serious.

The following famous people have all received death threats, which have caused them to worry for both their own lives and the lives of their families.

Kim Kardashian

In 2012, after a string of attacks in Jerusalem, “KUWTK” actress Kim Kardashian tweeted a message of support for Israel, which she later deleted. According to The Hollywood Reporter, Kim’s brief statement that she was “praying for everyone in Israel” infuriated dozens of her admirers, some of whom sent her anti-Semitic insults and even issued death threats.

Miranda Lambert

In a 2012 interview with Self magazine, country music artist Miranda Lambert acknowledged “carrying a weapon” for her own safety. After receiving a death threat a few years earlier that “seriously terrified” her, she made that choice.

Selena Gomez

Fans of Canadian pop sensation Justin Bieber were furious in 2011 when intimate and loving images of him and Selena Gomez appeared online. She had to cope with several messages sent to her Twitter account, some of which were published at the time by USA Today and included threats to kill her if she were to “break Justin’s heart” or “be Bieber’s girlfriend.”

Madonna

The Queen of Pop and her daughter Lourdes were carefully accompanied by police officials at London’s Heathrow Airport, according to a 1999 MTV article. The cause? The ‘Vogue’ hitmaker’s life was allegedly threatened in a call to British Airways.
