Can you believe it?"by Hannah MarderBuzzFeed StaffFacebookPinterestLink 1. At the 2009 MTV VMAs, Lil Mama shocked everyone when she got up onstage and started dancing during Jay-Z and Alicia Keys' performance. Apparently, it was her grandma's birthday, so she was in a celebratory mood. "I'm from New York City. So when the song [kicked] up... I got excited, and I went up there," she later said, noting that she was sober. The video's hard to watch - Lil Mama kind of awkwardly walks up to the performers and dances a bit, then copies their ending pose. Oh, and this is after Beyoncé pulls her back, trying to stop her from going onstage. MTV / Via youtube.com 2. Speaking of the VMAs - when accepting MTV's Video Vanguard Award, Katy Perry made some people cringe after giving a speech about the "noise" female artists deal with, joking about her period and bringing up criticisms after she cut her hair short. This might've been fine, except...periods and haircuts kind of pale in comparison to rampant sexual assault and intimidation in the music industry. Let's not forget that Perry is actively still working with Dr. Luke, who fellow star Kesha accused of rape (the two reached a settlement last year). MTV 3. In fact, Dr. Luke worked with Perry on her new song "Women's World," which is supposed to be an empowering feminist anthem. Though, this, too, ended up being a cringe moment for Perry, with fans near-universally panning the song and accompanying video as surface-level feminism as seen through the male gaze. Perry later claimed it was "satire." Capitol Records / Via youtube.com 4. Madonna has had a lottttt of cringe moments. In one recent example, at one of Madonna's concerts, she spoke about her mother's death. She then began singing - and stopped to chastise someone in the audience for not paying enough attention to her. Pointing him out, she said, "Look at him. See, he's wearing like barely nothing. Him! The guy with the T-shirt and chains that looks like he wants to get f**ked right now." She continued, "I just want to point out that while I was singing my heart out about the loss of my mother he was looking around at the crowd ... not at me. I'm just pointing out that I f**king pay attention, so you need to pay attention young man! You're going to destroy your ego, right now." Frazer Harrison / Getty Images 5. At another concert, Madonna reportedly chastised a fan for sitting during the show, saying, "What are you doing sitting down over there?" Walking forward and apparently realizing the person was in a wheelchair, Madonna said, "Oh, okay. Politically incorrect. Sorry about that. I'm glad you're here." Theo Wargo / Getty Images According to a fan, "There's a part where during the show she asks everyone to stand up. It's not about who's sitting/standing during the entire show. Just 1 section she asks for participation. And this time she embarrassed herself." 6. Celebs can be super weird about activism in general, and I have to bring up a few more examples. Like, um, the time AnnaLynne McCord wrote a poem to Vladimir Putin about how things would be different if she were his mother. It's an odd response to Russia's invasion of Ukraine, to say the least.

While livestreaming a DJ set for COVID relief, Guetta said he'd "made a special record in honor of George Floyd," adding "shoutout to his family" before playing an EDM mashup of Martin Luther King Jr.'s "I Have a Dream" speech and the Hamster Dance song. He then started dancing. T.H.E - Music Essentials / Via youtube.com 8. I don't know what it is with white celebrities and George Floyd, but Guetta was not the only one to do something weird. Like...why did Heather Morris (y'know, from Glee) take to Instagram to share an interpretive dance piece she'd choreographed in Floyd's honor? Gregg Deguire / Getty Images 9. Similarly, Lili Reinhart made some fans cringe when she posted a nude photo on Instagram with a caption about Breonna Taylor. "Now that my sideboob has gotten your attention, Breonna Taylor's murderers have not been arrested," she wrote. "Demand justice." Axelle / Getty Images She later apologized, writing, "I've always tried to use my platform for good. And speak up about things that are important to me. I also can admit when I make a mistake and I made a mistake with my caption. It was never my intent to insult anyone and I'm truly sorry to those that were offended." She continued in a second tweet, "I've tried very hard to be honest on my IGTV lives that I'm still learning and trying to be better. But I understand that my caption came off as tone deaf. I truly had good intentions and did
