MUMBAI: Celebrities and direct messages could be great. It could also be a recipe for disaster. For one group of celebrities, that’s exactly what it was. We have a list of celebs who took fan engagement a little too far and were caught sliding into some DMs.
1. James Franco
James Franco may be an actor and director extraordinaire, but his relationships with women has gone off the deep end. It certainly didn’t help his reputation when he was caught sliding into the DMs of a 17-year-old Scottish girl in 2014. The fan in question was Lucy Clode, who was in New York celebrating her 18th birthday early at a showing of Of Mice and Men, starring Franco at the time. While an authorgraph would have sufficed, Franco took it upon himself to offer Clode a night in a hotel room. While his initial response to the ordeal was an awkward, since-deleted tweet where he stated, “I HOPE PARENTS KEEP THEIR TEENS AWAY FROM ME,” he eventually admitted to using “bad judgement” during an interview on Live With Kelly And Michael.
2. Justin Bieber
Pop superstar Justin Bieber didn’t exactly slide into a fan’s dms, but he certainly found himself in an embarrassing situation trying to land himself a date. In a funny yet awkward post, gym worker Jessica Gober tweeted a screenshot of a direct message sent to her employer by Bieber attempting to find out who she was.

3. Lebron James
NBA star LeBron James has been relatively scandal free for most of his career, but he did have one embarrassing moment in 2017 when he took a shot he shouldn’t have. LeBron, a married man, slipped into Instagram model Heidi Hoback’s dms asking her to teach him how to hunt in exchange for some basketball lessons.
4. Drake
Drake didn’t slip into just anyone’s dms. The person in question was former adult film star, Mia Khalifa, and this just had to make the list on account of Khalifa’s all around desire for Mia. In an interview with CBS Miami 560 WQAM, Khalifa revealed that she had received “cringe worthy,” half-naked photos from a celebrity who’s name rhymes with rake. Yeah, not so subtle in hiding his identity. He started from the bottom, now he’s slipping into DMs.
