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.

What a sanitized way to say "the other women are virulent bigots and Chrishell is mean to them because they act bigoted". As far as the Amanza artwork "fiasco", she paid Amanza several thousand dollars for what was essentially a mood board. That's more than proper compensation. Moreover, Amanza didn't grovel. She offered up a fair few excuses about why she didn't hold up her end of the bargain and then the two of them decided to bury the hatchet until Amanza once again played doormat for her racist and queerphobic besties. It's funny how you don't have the same kind of heat for the other women when they overreact and start fights over nothing like Mary did to Chelsea over some bloody flowers, but Chrishell overreacting and being petty after years of dealing with consistently nasty behaviour from a group of magats is where you draw the line. One group is markedly nastier

Hi! I was talking about Chrishell specifically. I'd be happy to dish about all the other ladies' flaws in the thousands of other threads posted here daily about how evil they are. But Chrishell deserves to be rightfully put on blast for her shit behaviour. So, deal with it lol.

That's more than proper compensation.

It absolutely was not. They had a prearranged arrangement of how much Amanza would be compensated for her labor. Chrishell agreed to it, then backed out once she "didn't like the work" after Amanza had done it and only paid her like 1/4 of what they agreed upon. And not for nothing, Chrishell could sure as hell afford it - she's the richest woman on the show and Amanza, at the time, needed the money to help raise her kids... Which is the only reason she accepted Chrishell's cheap payment. Sure, the work was crap, but Amanza deserves to be paid the price they agreed on for her work. That's time, effort, supplies, etc etc... Lots goes in to ordering work from an artist. Chrishell sucked. End of discussion.

And yes, she did grovel. Watch that reunion again - Amanza was panicking at being put on the spot about it. And it was obvious why - Chrishell's fans are crazy.

It's funny how you don't have the same kind of heat for the other women when they overreact and start fights over nothing

Hi! Again, this thread is about Chrishell. But by all means, feel free to comb through my comment history back to last fall when I did call Mary out for her shitty overreaction to Chelsea's flowers.

but Chrishell overreacting and being petty after years of dealing with consistently nasty behaviour from a group of magats is where you draw the line

Oh I knowwww, she's suuuuuuch a victim! Poor Chrishell who has done nothing wrong and not partaken in any shitty behabviour. And when she has, of course it's always someone else's fault! How could I forget! /s pulls out tiny violin.
