Terribly Famous

14

Wouldn’t you love to be a famous? Money. Red carpets. Adoring fans. Did we mention the money? But you’re also on a tightrope. Because when everyone’s watching, you’re only one misstep away from it all going terribly wrong. It’s like Rihanna said: there's a long way to fall when you're so far from earth. Join hosts Anna Leong Brophy and Emily Lloyd-Saini on Wondery’s Terribly Famous, as they tell the stories of our most iconic stars. After all, it’s fun to walk a mile in someone else’s shoes – especially when they’re Manolos.

    Over way too soon!
    These ladies killed every episode. They are so funny and vibe so well together. This was modeled after an American podcast that is nowhere NEAR as good. Best of luck ladies, you’ll be missed here.

    Terrible background noise “sound effect”
    Couldn’t get past the first episode when the background sound effect was just the sound of utensils scraping on plates. Ugh no thanks.

    Like don’t love
    I think they are just trying to give a softer perspective of why these famous people are who they are and possibly misbehave; but they missed the mark on Naomi. Naomi Campbell may have turned over a new leaf as a mother, but there was no mention Naomi’s association with the Russian oligarchs. This podcast is at least better than “Even the Rich” for accuracy. Don’t bother with that one.

    Wonderful!
    Duos don’t always work on podcasts (often annoying crosstalk), but these two do. Deep dives, light-hearted remarks. I look forward to more.

    Totally biased and one sided
    Basically a copy of Harry's book from his perspective presented as FACT. It's nauseating.

    Fantastic
    Heard Emily on an episode of British Scandal and loved her. Super glad she plugged this podcast because it’s awesome. I am an American, so it does take me some googling to figure out all the players here and some of the references are lost on me (who is Pat Kenny and what’s his vibe because google doesn’t tell you that). All together the style of the show is immaculate. You get the hosts personalities, while also getting a full story. Currently bingeing.

    Knee pads for the podcast crowd
    Listening to the Naomi Campbell podcast. The narrators only relay information from the subjects point of view but entirely omit any hint of deviant behavior exhibited by the subject. This is a woman involved with Russian oligarchs, dictators of African countries, yachting (i.e., recruitment of underage persons by the wealthy, sexual assault, sexual abuse, domestic abuse, sex work). There are many other podcasts available with background on the more intimate details. Naomi Campbell is not a good person or role model if she openly and unabashedly promotes herself amongst people who engage in those activities, no matter what “charity” masks the behaviors.

    Saw these ladies perform live
    At the Edinburgh Fringe and loved them! This is a very well done podcast, with great humor as well. I just wished they chose people to feature that I cared more about.

    Love it!
    The hosts are so charming! Also, the show does a great job of reframing the stories of these celebrities in a balanced way that really puts into perspective how my brain has mostly retained the narrative of the tabloids without providing any context.

    My new binge.
    I absolutely love this podcast. The stories are detailed and delightfully told. Also the hosts are legit funny and appropriately sensitive in all the right moments. Well done, people!

    Love, love, LOVE
    I enjoy this podcast immensely! Their topics seem to be very well researched & the hosts are absolutely delightful with great senses of humor. Most importantly, I feel they do a stellar job of sharing BOTH SIDES of every story. SO REFRESHING! My only complaint is that I wish there were more episodes.
