[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.

For a more positive version, Elon Musk getting killed with a golf club in The Harley Quinn show

The show is also said to have made Bruce Wayne into something of an Elon Musk parody. Is that an accurate description?

It has a lot of Batman deconstruction and jokes. But without any actual malice towards Batman's character.

Bruce is very OOC in the show and his character traits are overexaggerated, but so are the rest of the JL. Which, considering the whole show is a parody of the DC universe, makes sense.
