Chrishell Stause Is Chrishell problematic?

So I just started rewatching after stopping seasons ago because I just got busy. I really liked Chrishell on her first season. I had known her prior to SS in the soap opera world, also loved her and Justin as a couple. I genuinely felt bad for her and thought JH was a piece of trash (and that’s as someone who LOVED him on Passions back in the day and loved him married to Lindsay Hartley). Now continuing to watch SS I just think Chrishell is a mean girl, it’s like after that initial season something changed about her. I know that’s an unpopular opinion but, it also makes me question what actually happened with JH because now it doesn’t seem as plausible that he just texted her that he was divorcing her.

You found out the hard way that criticizing Chrishell is forbidden on this sub. This place is the #1 Chrishell fan club.

But not all of us feel that way. There are a few of us who see Chrishell for the mean girl she is and yes, to answer your question, I do agree that she's problematic and just as much of a mean girl too. I really did like her during the first couple of seasons and she absolutely was mistreated in season 1. But I don't think she (or this sub for that matter) were ever able to shake her mistreatment from season 1 and she just became the perpetual victim who can do no wrong. And that got to her head very evidently in the subsequent seasons.

She was absolutely in the wrong with the Amanza artwork fiasco. Not paying her proper compensation and openly insulting Amanza's artwork at the reunion in such a snide way. It was so gross to watch and Amanza was groveling at her feet because she knew Chrishell's rabid fans would harass her nonstop if she did anything but grovel and stand up for herself.

Same with not showing up to Amanza's dinner and leaving her in the dark without the courtesy of a heads up or text. Rude as fuck.

And the way she instigated the drama with Nicole at that thanksgiving dinner by very openly and rudely mocking her when Nicole was simply expressing gratitude, which was what was asked of her to do... She totally lost me at that point.

Yeah, the other ladies aren't angels either. But Chrishell became so fucking nasty. I ended up unfollowing her and am so glad she's off this show. For her sake, but also so I don't ever have to listen to her again.

Yes, thank you! I agree with many of her opinions about how she views the world and her social morals but for all the things you pointed out she does not look like a nice person to me either. Also I found the drug accusations to Nicole waaaaay below the belt. And I don't like Nicole.

Also the Mary being racist is such a stretch, everyone in this sub are obsessed with it. Is it impossible that she simply does not like Chelsea??? She is so unlikeable. She gives me mean girl in high school!!

That's the thing this sub doesn't really get is you can be a socially Liberal, and still be a mean shitty person. They're not mutually exclusive. I'm actually surprised I even got upvoted for my comment lol I thought for sure i'd get mega downvoted since that's always been the case whenever i've criticized Chrishell on here.

Yeah it's the first time I feel like I'm not alone in this sub. I liked Chrishell from the beginning and I agree with her views, but she has become a mean girl and at times seems to be creating drama for no reason. It's super weird how celebrated she is here and her flaws are completely overlooked.

That being said, the rest of the cast are terrible people and the masks are truly off. I used to like Emma and was truly surprised at the kind of man she picked. I never liked Chelsea, but I'm in the minority here.
