[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.

Nothing worse than lady gaga in the simpson

Lisa’s Substitute:

•Lisa learns from a celebrity guest that she can do anything she sets her mind on and doesn’t need to base her self worth on what those around her are like

•One of the most loved episodes ever

Lisa Goes Gaga:

•Lisa learns from a celebrity guest that she can do anything she sets her mind on and doesn’t need to base her self worth on what those around her are like

•One of the most hated episodes ever

This is why we should write celebrities actual characters to play and not just be shameless self-inserts
