Celebrity Comebacks And Popularity In Media

Celebrities often drastically rise and fall in popularity, with immense pressure being put on them and the entire world as their audience. Many celebrities in the past have gone through their own downfalls and have never been able to come back from them. However, some have faced huge struggles, but they still persisted and were able to change their lives.

One actress who is currently trending and making a comeback is Lindsey Lohan. In the summer of 2013, Lindsey admitted to relapsing to alcoholism and went to rehab. Because of this, she stopped acting in movies after 2013, until recently in November of 2022, when she made headlines by announcing her new movie “Falling For Christmas.” Fans are excited to hear that she is doing much better and is easing her way back into the industry. They also give special congratulations to her and her new husband, who earlier this year announced that they are having their first child.

Along with Lohan, famous and beloved actor Robert Downey Jr. had his comeback in the early 2000s. His biggest role after coming back from rehab and dealing with his addictions was “Iron Man,” which changed his life forever. Downey had many drug charges and missed mandatory court-ordered drug tests, which led him to serve a year in a substance abuse treatment facility. Nobody expected him to come back from the lows he had reached, but he is now in the top 50 richest actors in the world and has had a very successful life and career since then.

One of the most trending people online this year is Pedro Pascal, who has become the internet’s newest heartthrob. Pascal has been acting since 1996, but he has been getting the most attention from his more recent projects, from the hit HBO Max show “The Last of Us” to the Disney+ show “The Mandalorian.” All over TikTok, Pascal can be seen in many fan edits, including an edit of him in an SNL teacher skit. Pascal has only continued to get more popular, with his following on various social media platforms increasing by the day as he gains more and more fans.

Being in the media has drawbacks, but many actors, actresses, songwriters, influencers, and more that have faced obstacles in life seem to be taking advantage of the positive aspects of the media and building on that. Newfound popularity and appreciation can make a huge impact on celebrities’ careers and give them a comeback after a dip in their success.
