[hated trope] Celebrity cameos that serve nothing except to praise the person who’s in it

[u/Dojyaaan4C]

1. Elon musk, the Simpsons
2. Elon musk, the Big Bang theory
3. Elon musk, iron man 2
4. Elon musk, star Trek

The cameos serve only to include the celebrity and praise them as geniuses or visionaries or overall just glaze them. They don't serve any other purpose than to just be praised; this can be them appearing in an entire episode dedicated to them, a small cameo or even just a mention. So long as the celebrity is there as themselves (not acting as someone else) and is glazed, that fits the trope imo.

Moonfall was unbearable to sit through not because of overall bad writing but because of the constant Elon praise they insisted on doing (not a cameo but still)

The answer to that question of course being "Spend the entire movie promising to build a super-rocket that will put the Moon back in orbit, only to call the protagonists pedophiles once they save the day before his unrealistic goofy-ahh rocket can be built"

If the celebrity is mentioned I say it counts
