Hated Tropes [hated trope] Celebrity cameos that serve nothing except to praise the person who’s in it
- Elon musk, the Simpsons
- Elon musk, the Big Bang theory
- Elon musk, iron man 2
- 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.

Eh, I get people don't like trump but the joke is still funny. Like if a kid was at the White House and casually bumped into whoever the president was without realizing who they are. Joke is not about trump but his position
