Michael & Alicia Fassbender ~ A Loving Couple Thread

[Allie28]

I just find it strange that someone who complains that Alicia's being "shoved down her throat" would continue to spend any of her time reading and posting in a thread about Alicia.

Again, I don't like the Kardashians. Believe me, they are hard to avoid! But.... I don't watch their show, I don't buy magazines when they're on the cover, if there's a Kardashian story on the net, I don't click on it. And I don't read their thread here.

Posting here is your right. It's your choice. But you can't say anyone is forcing you to or is shoving Alicia down your throat. It was your CHOICE to come here. I'm sorry in an Alicia Vikander thread there is discussion of Alicia Vikander. No one has to be a fan or even like her but when you come here guns a blazing to blast her and those who like her, you have to expect some defense.

This part is not directed at anyone specifically....but I'm finding that the ones who complain so much about Alicia are the very ones who read these threads, search twitter, stalk her friends instagrams, search gossip sites for any little tidbit on her just to tear her apart. And spend the most time writing about her on forums.

If they would just stop clicking on her name, Alicia would cease to exist in their world and they'd be much happier.

I did a twitter search on Alicia just to see if it's true "Everyone hates her. Not just Fassy fans." 99% of the tweets were positive. Here were the first five listed. No editing or special selection.

I read through about 30 tweets...those were the first ones. I didn't see any hate. They were either positive or promotion for the films. Apparently, not everyone hates her.

I've read articles that is strictly about her career/movies (no Michael mentioned) on movie sites and i saw some people (with disqus account) on the comment section saying those stuff about her using sexual favours/Weinstein to get her roles, and i was a bit surprised because I thought 'wow apparently this rumor do exists outside of Fassy fandom'



But then... I was on justjared, reading some articles about them and in the comment section, i found those same disqus accounts who spread the casting couch **** all over the internet. They are in fact regular commenters on Michael's articles at JJ lol. Still the same Fassy stans all over again, taking over every articles about her



And if there are people who dislike her outside the Fassy fandom, it's completely normal, right? I mean when you're an actress/famous people, of course there are people who like you and those who don't. People might not like her acting, her looks, her attitude, and especially for a rising star like her, some people might find her overexposed or overrated (like people did with Jlaw, Shailene, Rooney, etc)... If it's just that kind of dislike, it's normal, she can't please everyone. But what disturb me is the nasty, over the top, accusations and theories about her that seem to coming from one collective source and that is the Fassy fandom

That's just sick. Michael's stans are crazy. It's one thing not to like someone because of their attitude, but to really hate and spread nasty rumors about the girl their idol is dating is just stupid. They should have their head checked.

I agree, and the constant body shaming is disgusting behavour. Calling her names for having a smaller breast size, and commenting on her weight. Assulting her every time she's going to the gym, saying it makes no difference on her. Pure bullying.

His stans actually do that too?!?! Man, this is the job for the psychiatrists!!!!

Yes, they call Michael names too for dating a woman with "the body of a twelve-year-old girl". There's a lot of horrible things going on in those forums.

I wonder what Alicia's plans are now that she's leaving Italy. Almost time for The Man From UNCLE press tour! Hopefully some interviews will start coming out on youtube soon!

Oh please! You know as well as I that none of the other girlfriends got the same kind of exposure. Which might be racist in itself given how Hollywood works. She gets all the hate because she's becoming successful on a high level. Nicole did one movie I know of and then only TV. Of course they liked her. She didn't have much time to say the wrong things or being misquoted. She simply didn't get the kind of exposure in the media. All his other ex-girls I don't even know. So this relationship is way more high profile than his others.

So... is she hated because she's "dating an envied for bachelor" or because she's "becoming successful on a high level"? Just wondering. I was way more into Fassy back when he dated Nicole, so maybe that's why she seemed to be getting plenty of exposure to me then. I will say, as far as the US is concerned at least, being on one hit TV show will make an actor more known to more people than being in zero hit movies. While AV has been in some acclaimed films, none have been big box office hits. She's only known to cinephiles and Fassy fans at this point, I'd say. Oh, and I guess Europeans, although even then I think it's limited mostly to movie-loving Europeans.

I just find it strange that someone who complains that Alicia's being "shoved down her throat" would continue to spend any of her time reading and posting in a thread about Alicia...

I find it strange that people on a gossip site can't seem to understand that people like to talk sh!t about things they don't like. It's sort of the basis of gossip, you know? But I will say, I only click on this thread when it's at the top of the front page. Which isn't very often, so there's that. Plus, it's raining today and I'm bored. I only discovered this thread because of the Michael Fassbender one -- I'm guessing that's true for the vast majority. I continue to post here to try and keep talk of her here, rather than taking over Fassbender's thread. Plus, it's fun to interrupt the circle jerk of homogenous thought that takes place in this thread! That makes me happier. We're all different. Diversity is actually quite an awesome thing.

I agree -- I love her natural beauty and I bet she gets more work than a Margot Robbie type, who can only do certain roles… AV's natural looks can help her disappear in roles and that's my favourite kind of actress.

See..now this...why pit one actress directly against the other? They are nothing alike in acting style nor personality, nor looks (both of which are natural) I like them both.

All of the above.
You're a woman yourself. If a woman is successful on more than one front it's even worse for other women to stand. If she's beautiful then she's dumb. If she's smart then she's ugly. If she's dating the hot guy then she must be using him. But Alicia checks all boxes. Pretty, smart about her career, talented. It brings out the Gollum in a lot of women.

And right, I forgot that the US is the centre of attention. If you're known there you made it. Someone should tell that the rest of the world.

What? Where? Like, seriously... where has this taken place? Assaulting her every time she's going to the gym? What? I think you just completely made that up, OMG.

On another note, I wish people would stop trivializing the use of the word "bullying". Like, talking sh!t about a celebrity is NOT bullying. Bullying is too serious to be trivialized by equating it with negative things said about a celebrity on a celebrity gossip board.

bul·ly
ˈbo͝olē/
verb
gerund or present participle: bullying
use superior strength or influence to intimidate (someone), typically to force him or her to do what one wants.
synonyms:persecute, oppress, tyrannize, browbeat, harass, torment, intimidate, strong-arm, dominate

None of that is going on here, because we do not have superior strength or influence over Alicia Vikander, and Alicia Vikander does not need to read any negative comments mentioned about her anywhere on the internet if she so chooses. So she is not being persecuted, or oppressed, or tyrannized. Like, just stop.

Again +1. Then throw in THAT oft misinterpreted interview where she (gasp!) dared to show she had some career ambition. A perfect storm.
